This policy explains what personal data we collect, why, what we do with it and the rights you have. We’ve kept it as plain as we can.
It covers this website, people who book a call with us, our clients, and people who send an enquiry through an advert, landing page, phone line or messaging service we run for a business.
Who we are
This website is run by Run the Reach. In this policy “we”, “us” and “our” mean Run the Reach.
For most of the data described here we are the controller, which means we decide how it’s used. Where we run AI tools inside a client’s business, we usually act on that client’s behalf as a processor, and the client’s own privacy policy applies as well.
Contact us about anything in this policy at contact@runthereach.com.
What we collect
When you visit this website:
- Our hosting provider records technical information such as your IP address, browser and device type, the pages you request and when. This keeps the site running and secure.
- This website does not use analytics, advertising cookies or contact forms.
When you book a call or contact us:
- Your name, email address, phone number, business name, trade and area, and anything you choose to tell us. Bookings are handled by a third-party booking tool.
When you are a client:
- Contact and billing details for you and your staff, information about your business, and access to accounts you share with us, such as Google Ads, your calendar or your phone system.
When you send an enquiry through one of our adverts, pages or AI tools:
- Your name, phone number, email address, postcode or area, details of the job you need doing and the messages you send.
- Where AI call answering is used, the call audio, a transcript and a summary of the call.
How we use it, and our lawful basis
We only use personal data where the law allows it. In practice:
- To run and secure this website: our legitimate interests in keeping the site working and safe.
- To reply to you and hold a call you booked: our legitimate interests, or steps you asked us to take before entering a contract.
- To provide our services to clients: performance of our contract with them.
- To handle an enquiry you sent about a job, reply to you, arrange a booking and pass your details to a business that can do the work: our legitimate interests (and the client’s) in responding to the request you made.
- To keep accounts and meet tax and legal duties: legal obligation.
If we ever rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time.
Enquiries and leads
If you send an enquiry through one of our adverts or pages, we pass it to one business that provides the service you asked about. That business may pay us for the introduction.
We do not pass your enquiry to more than one business, and we do not sell it to list brokers or data companies.
How we use AI
We use AI to reply to enquiries, answer calls, summarise conversations and arrange bookings on behalf of the businesses we work with. The AI works from the information you give it and the instructions the business has set.
AI does not make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects. If you want a person to review a conversation or a booking, contact the business or us and we will.
To generate replies, conversation content is processed by AI model providers. We use providers that do not use this data to train their models.
How long we keep it
- Enquiries and call records: up to 24 months, then deleted or anonymised.
- Prospective client details (for example from a booked call): up to 24 months after our last contact.
- Client records: for the length of our engagement and 6 years after, to meet tax and legal requirements.
- Website server logs: for the short period set by our hosting provider.
Complaints
If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your data, please tell us first at contact@runthereach.com and we’ll try to put it right. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
Children
Our services are for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
