Who we are
We are registered in England and Wales. Our registered number is 9443475 and our registered office is at 25 Kingswear Parade, Leeds LS15 8LJ
But, for the purposes of this Retention Policy, it’s just easier if we refer to ourselves as “we”.
Purpose of this document
The purpose of the Retention Policy is to explain what personal information we may collect about you when you visit our site or interact with our online services, the purpose of that collection, and how long we store that personal information for.
Our Retention Policy is broadly divided into two sections:
Our website; and
Cookies.
Depending on how you interact with our site and our services we may collect different types of personal information about you. The duration that we retain that personal information will vary depending on how you interact with us. For example, we may retain information about you for a longer period of time if you have asked us to keep you updated about developments in the school.
The types of personal information that we collect, its purpose, and retention period is detailed in the tables below.
If you become a client of Leeds Dog grooming academy, then you will be subject to our normal terms and conditions, which will include separate and additional privacy policies. These other policies will be brought to your attention separately, however, if you are unsure then please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.

When you leave our site the session ends. The expiry period of a cookie will usually run from the date of the most recent session. This means that, each time you visit our site, the expiry period for those cookies may reset.
It is important to understand that when a cookie is placed on your device it will reside on your hard drive until it expires and is deleted or it may reside on your hard drive until you manually delete it – this entirely depends on your individual browser settings and we do not have control over this.

Changes to our retention policy
We may need to change this Retention Policy if it’s necessary for legal reasons or to reflect changes to our site and services or the purposes for which we may wish to collect and process your personal information. In any case, the provisions of this Retention Policy may be changed without prejudice to your rights. When we change our Retention Policy we will make the updated Retention Policy available on our site and we will also update the “Last Updated” date.
Once we change our Retention Policy, we will use our reasonable efforts to inform you. This may include asking you to agree to the updated Retention Policy before we process further information about you or it may require us to suspend access to parts of our site until you agree to the updated Retention Policy – we will only restrict access to parts of our site where we deem it is necessary for us to collect or process personal information about you.
You’re welcome to contact us if you have questions about the changes.
