We are committed to respecting your privacy and keeping your information safe. Our easy to read privacy policy is printed below.
StairLifty only uses the personal data which you provide to provide you with a guide price and to allow stair lift companies to provide you with a quotation.
We may contact you via email, phone or SMS. When you use our quotation service to request a quote, you will then be contacted directly by stairlift companies.
We do not otherwise send your personal data to ANY third party at any time save where we are under a legal obligation to do so.
What personal data do we collect?
The personal data we collect is primarily that which you provide us in completing our quote form. We may collect information about the web browser or mobile device that you use to view our website, but we do so only for statistical purposes.
How do we use your data to obtain your guide price and quote?
In order to provide our services to you we need to collect and process personal data about you and disclose that personal data to a number of third party stair lift companies. As previously indicated to you when you first gave us your data, by using our website you are consenting to our doing so. There is no statutory requirement on you to provide this personal data. However, this personal data is necessary to enable us to arrange to provide you with the quotations and services that you have requested. We only collect the personal data which we believe is necessary for us to arrange to provide these quotations and services. All personal data is held in strictest confidence and used only for the purposes of arranging the provision of the quotations and services you have requested, subject to certain exceptions as described in this privacy policy.
How do I opt out?
You have the right, to require us to remove the data we hold about you. This is commonly known as “The Right to be Forgotten”.
To exercise this right please contact us as indicated below:

How do third party stair lift companies use your personal data?
We pass data to third party stair lift companies so that they may contact you directly to discuss your requirements and arrange a survey to help provide your quotation. Third Party stair lift companies will invariably collect additional data about you (for example where they survey or obtain information about your home) and should communicate their own data protection policy to you. Third party stair lift companies may also need to process data about you in order to consider potential or to fulfill actual contracts with you. We recommend that you read those policies. Those third parties may wish to send you marketing communications, so if you do not want those marketing communications you will need to opt out directly with those third party stair lift companies.
