Privacy Policy

This policy explains how LAYRR Ltd collects and uses personal data when you visit layrr.co, use our coating enquiry tool, or contact us. We collect only what we need to answer your enquiry and run our business.

16th October 2026

1. Who we are

LAYRR Ltd is the controller of your personal data under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

  • Company: LAYRR Ltd, registered in England and Wales

  • Company number: 14150518

  • Registered office and trading address: 126a Olympic Avenue, Milton Park, Oxfordshire, OX14 4SA

  • ICO registration: 00014380952

  • Privacy contact: hello@layrr.co (subject line: "Privacy")

We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer, as the law does not require one for a business of our size and activity.

2. Personal data we collect

We collect business contact details you give us, plus limited technical data from your visit.

  • Proof-of-concept and technical enquiry form: name, company, role, email, application area, operating temperature range, your message.

  • Coating enquiry tool (layrr.co/calculator): contact details and the technical requirements you enter.

  • Email and investor contact: name, email, organisation, and what you write to us.

  • Job applications: CV, contact details, work history, qualifications, and anything you choose to send.

  • Website visits: IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, referring site, approximate location (country/city).

Please do not send us confidential technical data through the website. Where an engagement needs it, we will put an NDA in place first.

We do not ask for special category data (such as health or ethnicity). If a job applicant offers it, we use it only for the purpose they gave it.

3. How we use your data and our lawful basis

We use your data to respond to you and run LAYRR. We never sell it.

  • Reply to technical, proof-of-concept and investor enquiries: legitimate interests in answering business enquiries.

  • Scope, quote and deliver a proof-of-concept or contract: contract, or steps before entering one.

  • Follow up on an enquiry with relevant LAYRR updates: legitimate interests; you can opt out at any time.

  • Send marketing newsletters (if we introduce one): consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

  • Assess job applications: steps before a contract, and legitimate interests in recruiting.

  • Run, secure and improve the website: legitimate interests; consent for non-essential cookies.

  • Meet legal, tax and accounting duties: legal obligation.

We do not make decisions about you using only automated means.

4. Who we share it with

We share personal data only with service providers who process it on our instructions, under a written contract.

  • Squarespace: website hosting, forms and site analytics.

  • Google (Gmail, Sheets and Apps Script): email, and storing coating enquiry tool submissions in Google Sheets, accessible only to LAYRR's technical team.

  • Attio: managing enquiries and business contacts.

  • Professional advisers: legal, accounting and audit, under a duty of confidentiality.

We may also disclose data where the law requires it, or to a buyer or investor during a sale or restructuring of the business, under confidentiality terms.

5. International transfers

Some providers, including Squarespace and Google, may process data in the United States or elsewhere outside the UK.

Where they do, we rely on UK adequacy regulations (including the UK–US Data Bridge for certified companies) or the ICO's International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum. Contact us for a copy of the relevant safeguards.

6. How long we keep it

We keep most personal data for 1 year, then delete or anonymise it. Records we must keep by law are held longer.

  • Enquiries, including coating enquiry tool submissions: 1 year from last contact.

  • Job applications: 1 year after the role is filled.

  • Website analytics: 1 year.

  • Customer contract, invoice and accounting records: 6 years after the financial year ends (UK tax and company law).

  • Marketing opt-outs: kept so we can respect your choice.

7. Cookies

Our site uses strictly necessary cookies to work, and analytics cookies only with your consent.

  • Strictly necessary cookies: security, load balancing and remembering your cookie choice. No consent needed.

  • Analytics cookies: help us understand which pages are useful, via Squarespace Analytics. Set only with your consent.

You can change your choice at any time through the cookie banner or your browser settings. We do not use advertising cookies.

8. Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to:

  • Access a copy of the personal data we hold about you

  • Correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete

  • Erase your data where we no longer have a reason to keep it

  • Restrict how we use your data in certain cases

  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests, and to direct marketing at any time

  • Port data you gave us to another organisation, where processing is automated and based on consent or contract

  • Withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on it

Email hello@layrr.co to use any of these rights. We will reply within one month and there is normally no charge.

9. Security, children, links and changes

Security. We use access controls, encryption in transit and reputable providers to protect your data. No online system is completely secure, so please avoid sending sensitive information through web forms.

Children. Our website and services are for businesses and professionals. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

Other websites. Links to other sites are covered by their own privacy policies, not this one.

Changes. We will post any updates to this policy on this page and change the date at the top.

Complaints. Please contact us first so we can put things right. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113.
