Privacy Policy

Who we are

LandlordCheck is a trading name of LandlordCheck Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales. We provide tenancy document packs that help landlords comply with the Renters' Rights Act 2025.

For the purposes of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, we are the data controller for the personal data we collect through this service.

What data we collect

We collect and process the following categories of personal data:

• Account information: your email address and password (hashed) when you create an account.
• Landlord details: your name, correspondence address, email address, and phone number — used to pre-fill your tenancy documents.
• Tenant details: tenant names and email addresses — used to pre-fill tenancy documents on your behalf.
• Property details: property address, property type, number of bedrooms, furnishing status, and other tenancy-related information.
• Payment information: payments are processed securely by Stripe. We do not store your card number, CVV, or full payment details on our servers. We retain only a Stripe transaction reference for our records.

Why we collect it and our legal basis

We collect your personal data for the following purposes:

• To generate your document pack: we use the landlord, tenant, and property details you provide to pre-fill your tenancy documents.
• To process your payment: we pass necessary information to Stripe so you can pay for the service.
• To allow you to download your documents: we store generated documents so you can access and re-download them from your account.

Our legal basis for processing your personal data is contract performance (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(b)) — the processing is necessary to provide you with the service you have purchased or requested.

Who we share your data with

We share your personal data only with the third-party service providers necessary to operate our service:

• Stripe — payment processing. Stripe is PCI-DSS Level 1 certified and processes your card details directly. We never see or store your full card information.
• Supabase — database and authentication. Our database is hosted in the EU (Frankfurt).
• Vercel — website hosting and delivery.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party.

How long we keep your data

• Account data: retained for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion of your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days.
• Document packs: stored for 12 months from the date of generation, after which they are automatically deleted.
• Payment records: retained for 7 years as required by UK tax and accounting regulations.
