ICO Registration Notice
Aura Vent Ltd is formally registered as a recognised Data Controller with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). We comply fully with statutory guidance regarding data harvesting minimisation and persistent record protection.
Operational Principles & Scope
This Privacy Policy sets out how Aura Vent Ltd ("we", "us", "our") handles the Personal Data of our prospective clients, existing customers, web visitors, and project collaborators. We operate under a central mandate of Data Minimisation: we collect only the precise informational vectors required to calibrate, construct, and maintain optimal residential ventilation systems.
By utilising our website, commissioning our technical specification quotes, or entering into formal residential maintenance contracts, you acknowledge the processing parameters detailed within this framework.
Categorisation of Harvested Data
To ensure mechanical precision in our client delivery, we categorise and process the following specific subsets of data:
- Identity Vectors: Full names, professional titles, organisational affiliations (for developers/architects), and client signatures.
- Contact Matrices: Email addresses, telephone routing numbers, site billing addresses, and physical project site coordinates.
- Engineering & Site Parameters: Architectural floor plans, calculated volumetric airflow requirements, MVHR/MEV unit serial numbers, existing HVAC ductwork layouts, access configurations, and historical physical site surveys.
- Financial Logistics: Invoicing histories, formal quotation records, and milestone transaction identifiers. (Note: Direct payment gateway details are tokenised and processed securely by authorised banking partners; we do not store raw cardholder parameters directly).
- Technical Telemetry: Timestamped IP addresses, user-agent HTTP headers, session durations, and browser interaction patterns mapped during visits to our primary web domain.
Methodologies of Capture
We capture data streams via transparent, identifiable pathways:
Data entered directly into our high-conversion Request Quote endpoints, technical query contact interfaces, direct email correspondences, telephone scoping logs, and physical commissioning paperwork completed on site.
Functional logging technologies, session monitoring scripts, and standard authentication cookies deployed across our infrastructure to ensure structural website reliability, guard against brute-force inquiries, and maintain site responsiveness.
Lawful Processing Frameworks
Under Article 6 of the UK GDPR, we route every processing instance through a verified legal mandate:
Contract Performance
Processing necessary for delivering bespoke quotations, scheduling engineering deployment, manufacturing physical duct layouts, executing field installations, and running ongoing operational maintenance.
Legitimate Interests
Evaluating web telemetry to enhance loading speeds, communicating critical system safety or filter replacement intervals to existing asset holders, defending our network against malicious injection attacks, and maintaining corporate accounts.
Statutory Compliance
Adhering to persistent accounting mandates (e.g., HMRC audit tracking), maintaining health and safety incident reports, and satisfying regulatory verification audits under NICEIC and BESA codes.
Explicit Consent
Governing direct consumer newsletter subscriptions and elective marketing communications. Consent can be revoked instantly at any phase via integrated opt-out pathways.
Third-Party Interfacing & Transmission
Aura Vent Ltd strictly rejects the monetisation or leasing of client databases. Data vectors are shared exclusively under rigorous, contractually bound confidentiality pacts with verified support partners:
- Form Processing Nodes: Direct messaging inputs pass through encrypted transit layers (e.g., Web3Forms API endpoints) to instantly alert our centralised estimation command queue.
- Cloud Architecture Hosting: Encrypted data storage on secure UK/EEA tier-1 server infrastructure.
- Regulatory Compliance Bodies: Limited sharing of site inspection metrics with accreditation networks (NICEIC, BESA, Building Control officers) to officially register fully commissioned building mechanical works.
- Professional Advisory Panels: Certified external accountants, insurers, and legal representatives bound by permanent non-disclosure mandates.
Storage Protocols & Data Permanence
Data records are stored physically and logically within data centers bound by ISO 27001 certification standards located primarily within the United Kingdom and EEA jurisdictions. We apply advanced cryptographic transit layers (TLS 1.3) to prevent intermediate listening during transmission.
Data Persistence Lifecycles:
Statutory Data Subject Rights
Under the Data Protection Act 2018, data subjects exercise unilateral rights over their documented profiles. To initiate any specific request, submit instructions directly to our privacy desk. We verify and action valid inquiries within 30 statutory days.
Obtain a transparent, complete digital record of all personal vectors logged under your identity.
Command the immediate correction of inaccurate or incomplete property survey or contact matrices.
Request the complete logical purging of your records (subject to overrides for ongoing contract liability or statutory HMRC audit storage).
Temporarily halt processing during disputes or object directly to data utilisation for secondary business analysis.
Statutory Escalation & Regulatory Recourse
Should you deem our operational handling of your data matrices to be out of alignment with statutory protections, we request immediate internal communication to allow targeted engineering remediation.
Furthermore, you retain the persistent statutory right to lodge formal enforcement notices directly with the national independent regulatory authority:
