Discover My BusinessThis notice explains what happens to the details you send through the contact form on this website. Last updated: 12 November 2026.
Who I am
This website is run by Paul White, trading as Discover My Business, based in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. I'm responsible for your details (the "controller" under UK data protection law). You can contact me at discovermybusinessuk@gmail.com.
What the contact form collects
- Your name
- Your business name (if you give it)
- Your phone number (if you give it)
- Your email address
- Your message
Why I collect it
Only to reply to your message, and if you've asked for one, to carry out your free check and talk to you about it. I won't add you to a mailing list, and I won't sell or share your details for anyone else's marketing.
The legal reason I can use your details is that you've asked me to get in touch (a "legitimate interest" in replying to you, and taking the steps you ask for before any agreement).
Who else handles it
This website is hosted by Netlify, Inc., which receives and stores form messages for me. Netlify is a US company and may store your details outside the UK. Netlify is certified under the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which is a legally recognised safeguard for sending personal data from the UK to the USA. Messages are also forwarded to my email inbox, which is provided by Google.
How long I keep it
If your message doesn't lead to any work, I delete it within 12 months. If you become a customer, I keep your contact details for as long as I'm working for you.
Cookies

Your rights
You can ask me to:
- tell you what details I hold about you, and give you a copy
- correct anything that's wrong

Just email discovermybusinessuk@gmail.com. I'll reply within one month.
