Who we are

BluntSnag Ltd ("BluntSnag", "we", "us") is a company registered in England and Wales (Company No. 15284736). Our registered address is available on request.

We provide new-build snagging inspection services and digital guides for residential property buyers in London. This policy explains how we collect, use and protect your personal data when you use bluntsnag.co.uk.

What data we collect

We collect only what we need to provide our service:

  • Name and email address — when you book an inspection or purchase a guide
  • Phone number — when you book an inspection, so we can confirm your appointment
  • Property address — so we know where to attend
  • Payment information — processed by Stripe; we never see or store your card details
  • IP address and browser data — collected automatically by our hosting provider (Netlify) for security purposes

How we use your data

  • To confirm your booking and send your inspection report
  • To send your guide download link after purchase
  • To contact you if there is a problem with your booking
  • To respond to any queries you send us via WhatsApp or email

We do not send marketing emails. We do not call you unless you have booked an inspection and we need to discuss logistics. We do not sell your data to anyone.
