UK GDPR Compliance
This page explains how Bognor Regis Appliance Repair Experts complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), which governs the protection of personal data in the United Kingdom. While we do not maintain a user registration system or store personal data in a database, we may collect limited information through website interactions such as cookies, analytics tools, and server logs.
