Privacy policy

How we look after the small amount of information this website collects about you.

Effective date: 1 October 2026. This policy was last reviewed on 1 October 2026. It applies to this website only, not to the care and companionship services we provide in person, which are covered by a separate privacy notice given to every household we visit.

1. Who we are

This website is run by HELP AT HOME BY JEN AND CO LTD. (referred to as "we", "us" and "our"), a family-run home help and companionship company. Our registered address is 466 Caerleon Road, Newport, NP19 7LW, Wales. Our director is Jennifer Maria Allen.

For any question about this policy or your personal data, email hello@helpathomebyjen.co.uk and mark your message "Privacy". We are the data controller for the personal data processed through this website.

2. What data this website collects

Information you send us directly

If you email us, we receive your name, email address and anything you choose to write. We use this only to reply to you and to have the conversation you have asked for about home help or companionship. The note-drafting form on our contact page does not transmit or store anything: it simply helps you compose a message that you then send yourself by email.

Server logs

Like almost every website, the server hosting this site keeps standard technical logs for a limited period. These can include your IP address, the type of browser and device you use, the pages you request and the time of each request. We use these logs only to keep the site secure and working, and to investigate errors.

Cookies and local storage

This site uses a small number of cookies and browser local storage, mainly to remember your cookie choices and, with your consent, to measure visits and support advertising. Full details are in our cookie policy.

3. Embedded Google Maps

Our contact page embeds a Google map so you can find 466 Caerleon Road easily. When the map loads, your browser contacts Google directly, and Google may set its own cookies and collect data such as your IP address under its own privacy policies, which we do not control. The map only loads after you interact with the page, and it is not used to track you around the rest of our site.

4. Microsoft Advertising

This website may display advertisements served by Microsoft Advertising (Bing). Microsoft may use cookies and similar technologies to serve and measure ads, including personalised ads if you have consented to them. We do not receive the contents of those cookies. You can read how Microsoft handles data in the Microsoft Privacy Statement and in our advertising policy.

5. How long we keep data

6. Your rights

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have the right to:

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@helpathomebyjen.co.uk. We will respond within one calendar month and will never charge you or make you jump through hoops.

You also have the right to complain to the supervisory authority: the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). You can contact the ICO at ico.org.uk or by calling 0303 123 1113. We would welcome the chance to put things right first, but you can contact the ICO at any time.

7. Changes to this policy

If the way this website handles data changes, we will update this page and change the effective date above. Because the site collects so little data, we do not expect major changes — but it is worth a quick look if you visit us again after some time.
