Privacy Policy

Last updated: 18 July 2026

1. Overview

The Barber Hub (“we”, “us”, “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains, in plain terms, what personal information we collect through this website and the associated application (together, the “Service”), how we use it, and the choices you have. We handle personal data in accordance with UK data protection law, including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. What we collect

Depending on how you use the Service, we may collect:

• Information you give us, such as your name, contact details, and any profile, portfolio or listing information you choose to add;
• Technical and usage information, such as device and browser details and how the Service is used, collected to keep the Service working, safe and improving.

We aim to collect only what we need to run the Service.

3. How we use it

We use personal information to:

• provide and operate the Service, including displaying the profiles and listings you ask us to display;
• communicate with you about the Service;
• maintain the security and integrity of the Service;
• understand how the Service is used so we can improve it.

We rely on the legal bases available under UK data protection law for these purposes, including performing our contract with you, our legitimate interests in running and improving the Service, and your consent where that is required.

4. Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with trusted service providers who help us run the Service (such as hosting providers), under appropriate safeguards, and where we are required to by law. Information you choose to publish on the Service (such as a barber profile or listing) is visible to its users by design.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

The Service may use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary for it to function, and may use others to understand usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

6. Keeping your information

We keep personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law, and then delete or anonymise it.

7. Security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information. No online service can be completely secure, but we work to protect your data in line with industry practice.

8. Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have rights over your personal information, including the right to access it, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to its use, and receive a copy of it. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

9. Children

The Service is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page, with the date above showing when it was last changed.
