Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Driving School Websites handles personal information provided through this website and in connection with the DSW Driving School Website System.

Last updated: 2 September 2026

Who We Are

Driving School Websites provides website services to existing customers and is developing DSW — the Driving School Website System.

For the purposes of UK data protection law, Driving School Websites is responsible for the personal information described in this policy.

Information We May Collect

The information we collect depends on how you use the website and our services. It may include:

  • Your name
  • Your email address and other contact details you choose to provide
  • Your driving school or business name
  • Information you provide when registering your interest in DSW
  • Information contained in enquiries or support communications
  • Account, billing and service information relating to existing customers
  • Technical information associated with use, security and operation of the website

We only ask for information that is appropriate to the reason you are contacting us or using our services.

DSW Early Access

If you register your interest in DSW Early Access, we will use the information you provide to contact you about the development, availability and Early Access release of the DSW Driving School Website System.

Registering your interest does not place an order and does not commit you to purchasing DSW.

We will not use Early Access registration details for unrelated marketing.

Existing Customers

If you are an existing Driving School Websites customer, we may hold information necessary to provide and administer your existing website, hosting, account and support services.

This may include contact information, account and billing records, service details and communications relating to your website or account.

Existing customer account and support facilities are provided through our customer system separately from the public WordPress website.

Why We Use Your Information

Depending on the circumstances, we may use personal information to:

  • respond to an enquiry or request;
  • administer an existing customer service;
  • provide support;
  • process and maintain customer records;
  • contact people who have specifically registered their interest in DSW;
  • operate, protect and maintain the website and associated systems; and
  • meet legal, accounting or regulatory obligations.

Our Legal Basis

We process personal information only where there is an appropriate legal basis under UK data protection law.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include performing a contract with an existing customer, taking steps at your request before entering into a contract, complying with a legal obligation, or pursuing our legitimate interests in operating and developing our business and services.

Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information.

Information may be processed by service providers where this is necessary to operate the website, provide customer services, deliver email, maintain hosting and security, process payments or provide other supporting services.

We may also disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect our legal rights, systems or customers.

How Long We Keep Information

We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably required for the purpose for which it was collected and for any applicable legal, accounting or operational requirements.

Existing customer records may need to be retained after a service ends where this is necessary for accounting, legal or record-keeping purposes.

If you have registered your interest in DSW and no longer wish to receive information about it, you can ask us to remove your Early Access details.

Security

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal information and the systems used to provide this website and our services.

No internet service can guarantee absolute security, but access to personal information is limited to where it is required for legitimate business purposes.

Cookies and Website Data

This website may use cookies and similar technologies required for its operation, security and administration.

Further information about cookies used by the website is provided in our Cookie Policy.

Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law gives you rights relating to your personal information. These can include the right to:

  • ask for access to personal information we hold about you;
  • ask for inaccurate information to be corrected;
  • ask for personal information to be deleted in certain circumstances;
  • ask for processing to be restricted in certain circumstances;
  • object to certain processing; and
  • ask for certain information to be provided in a portable format where applicable.

Not every right applies in every situation.

Contacting Us About Your Information

If you have a question about this Privacy Policy, want to exercise a data protection right or want us to remove your DSW Early Access registration, please contact Driving School Websites using the contact details provided on this website.

If you are unhappy with how your personal information has been handled, you also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
