Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 September 2026

HouseOhm respects your privacy and aims to be clear about how information may be collected and used when you visit houseohm.co.uk.

This Privacy Policy explains the types of information that may be processed when you use the website, why it may be processed and the choices available to you.

HouseOhm is a UK-based website and this policy is intended to reflect applicable UK data protection requirements.

Information you provide to us

HouseOhm does not currently operate a website contact form or require visitors to create an account.

If you contact us directly by email at hello@houseohm.co.uk, we will receive the information you choose to provide, which may include your name, email address and the contents of your message.

We use this information to respond to your enquiry, manage correspondence and, where appropriate, maintain records relating to the communication.

Please don’t send sensitive personal information by email unless it is genuinely necessary.

Website analytics

HouseOhm may use analytics services, including Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use the website.

Depending on the configuration and consent choices available to you, these services may process information such as pages visited, approximate location, device and browser information, referral source and interactions with the website.

We use this information to understand website performance, improve our content and identify which HouseOhm guides are useful to readers.

Where consent is legally required for non-essential analytics cookies or similar technologies, these technologies should only be used in accordance with the consent choices presented to you.

Google Search Console

We use Google Search Console to understand how HouseOhm appears in Google Search, identify technical website issues and analyse information such as search queries, impressions, clicks and page performance.

Search Console primarily provides aggregated information about how the website performs in Google Search.

Cookies

HouseOhm may use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions, analytics and, as the website develops, potentially advertising and affiliate-related functionality.

Where required, visitors will be given appropriate choices regarding non-essential cookies.

More information about the cookies used by HouseOhm and how they can be controlled is available in our Cookie Policy.

Affiliate links

Some HouseOhm content may contain affiliate links. If you follow an affiliate link, the relevant retailer, affiliate network or service provider may use cookies or similar technologies to identify that a referral originated from HouseOhm.

Information about how those third parties process personal data is governed by their own privacy policies.

For more information about how HouseOhm uses affiliate relationships, see our Affiliate Disclosure.

Third-party websites

HouseOhm contains links to third-party websites, including government bodies, electrical-safety organisations, manufacturers, retailers and other information sources.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites. If you follow an external link, you should review the privacy information provided by that website where appropriate.

How long we keep information

We aim to retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to correspondence and meeting any applicable legal, accounting or administrative requirements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and why it is held.

Your data protection rights

Depending on the circumstances and applicable UK data protection law, you may have rights relating to your personal information, including rights to request access to information held about you, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion in certain circumstances, restrict or object to certain processing and request transfer of information where applicable.

You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.

If you have a question or wish to exercise a relevant data protection right, contact hello@houseohm.co.uk.

You also have the right to raise a concern with the UK’s data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as HouseOhm develops, particularly if we introduce new website functionality, advertising, analytics services, affiliate partners or other technologies.

The date at the top of this page will indicate when the policy was last updated.
