When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain data about your browsing behaviour, including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and time spent on each page. This helps us understand how visitors interact with our site and identify areas for improvement.
If you contact us through our enquiry forms or email, we collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, and any messages you send.
