Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
At Piece of Cake Web Design, we like to keep things simple, honest, and human; including how we handle your information.
This page explains what we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with it (spoiler: nothing sneaky).
We’re a small Gloucestershire-based web design service helping local businesses get lovely websites without the usual stress, jargon, or eye-watering prices big agencies can charge.
If you ever have questions about your data, just email – we’re real people and happy to help.
Who We Are
Piece of Cake Web Design is part of Caketu.com.
We provide website design, website support, hosting help, updates, and related digital services for small businesses across Gloucestershire.
For the purpose of UK GDPR, we are the “data controller” of the personal information you share with us.
You can contact us here.
What Information We Collect
Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:
Information you give us
This might include:
- Your name
- Business name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Current web address/social media
- Project details
- Website requirements
- Messages you send via contact forms or email
- Billing information (if you become a client)
Basically: the normal stuff needed to talk about your project and serve your business.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, we may also collect:
- IP address
- Browser type
- Device type
- Pages visited
- Time spent on the site
- Basic cookie data
This helps us improve the website and make sure everything works properly.
No creepy stuff. No spying. No selling your data. Ever.
Why We Collect It
We use your information to:
- Reply to enquiries
- Quote for work
- Deliver web design services
- Manage projects and client communication
- Send invoices and admin info
- Improve our website and services
- Keep things secure and prevent spam
We only collect what we actually need.
No nonsense.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under UK GDPR, we process your information because:
- You’ve asked us to provide information or a quote
- We need it to deliver agreed services
- We have a legitimate business reason (like improving the website or preventing spam)
- In some cases, because you’ve given consent to do so.
Sharing Your Information
We do not sell your personal data. Ever.
We may share information with trusted service providers where needed, such as:
- Website and email hosting providers
- Payment processors and accounting software
- Domain and technical support services
- Analytics tools (like Google Analytics, for example)
They only get what’s necessary and are expected to keep it secure and GDPR compliant too.
How Long We Keep It
We keep personal information only for as long as necessary.
For example:
- Enquiry emails may be kept for follow-up and admin purposes
- Client project details may be kept for legal, tax, and support reasons
If we no longer need it, we delete it.
Simple.
Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access your personal data
- Ask us to correct inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to certain uses of your data
- Request restriction of processing
- Request transfer of your data where applicable
If you’d like to do any of that, just get in touch.
Cookies
Our website may use cookies to help the site function properly and understand how people use it (the boring, helpful kind, not the delicious kind, sadly).
You can usually control cookies through your browser settings.
Third-Party Links
Sometimes we may link to other websites.
Once you leave our site, we’re not responsible for how those sites handle your information, so it’s worth checking their policies too.
Keeping Your Information Safe
We take reasonable steps to protect your data using secure systems, trusted providers, and common sense.
No system on the internet is perfect, but we do our best to keep things safe and sensible.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time if things change.
Nothing dramatic – just keeping things current and compliant.
The latest version will always be on this page.
