  • With your consent, we will use your personal data, preferences to keep you informed by email, web, telephone about relevant marketing, products and services including tailored special offers, discounts, promotions, events, competitions and so on.

Of course, you are free to opt out of hearing from us by any of these channels at any time.

You are free to opt out of hearing from us by post at any time.

    For example, when a court order is submitted to share data with law enforcement agencies or a court of law.

Sometimes, we’ll need to share your details with a third party who is providing a service (A designated printer or mailing service). We do so to maintain our relationship with you. Without sharing your personal data, we’d be unable to fulfil this request.

How we protect your personal data

We know how much data security matters to all our customers. With this in mind we will treat your data with the utmost care and take all appropriate steps to protect it.

We secure access to our Truck Pages website using ‘https’ technology.

Access to your personal data is password-protected, and any marketing related data is secured to ensure it is protected.

How long will we keep your personal data?

Whenever we collect or process your personal data, we’ll only keep it for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

At the end of that retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised, so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.

Some examples of customer data retention periods:

Advertisement Orders
When you place an order to publish an advert on any of our media channels, we’ll keep the personal data you give us for five years so we can comply with our legal and contractual obligations.

Inactive accounts
If you’ve not used your account for more than five years, it will be flagged as inactive and we’ll contact you to ask whether you want to keep it open. Unless you reply to say ‘yes’, we’ll close the account and delete the personal data associated with it.
