Georges Barbers ("we", "us") runs this website and the barbershop at 11 Chesham Road, Amersham HP6 5HN. This page explains what personal information we collect, why, and what you can do about it.

What we collect and why
When you book online
Bookings are handled by Setmore, our booking provider. When you book, Setmore collects your name, email address, phone number and the appointment you chose, so we can confirm, remind you about and manage your appointment. Setmore's own privacy policy applies to their service: setmore.com/privacy. Lawful basis: to provide the service you asked for.
When you call, email or message us
We use what you send us (for example your name, number and message) only to reply and arrange your visit. Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in answering you.
When you book an ear piercing
We may ask a few questions on the day to make sure piercing is safe for you. We use your answers only for your piercing and keep them only as long as we need them.
When you visit this website
- Our host, Cloudflare, processes your IP address and basic request details to deliver the site and protect it from attacks. Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits without cookies.
- If you accept analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics 4 to see how people use the site (pages viewed, the device type, roughly where visits come from, and clicks on Book, Call and Directions). We do not use it to identify you. If you decline, Google Analytics does not load.
We do not sell your information and we do not use it for advertising.

How long we keep it
- Booking records: as long as Setmore keeps them in our account, and no longer than we need for running the shop.
- Emails and messages: only as long as we need them to reply and arrange your visit.
- Analytics data: 14 months (Google Analytics setting).
Who we share it with
Only the services that run the shop and this website: Setmore (bookings), Cloudflare (hosting), Google (analytics, only if you accept). Some of these may process data outside the UK under approved safeguards.
