Introduction
Bua Horology ("we", "us", "our") operates a watch repair workshop at 47/2 Soi Sukhumvit 31, Khlong Toei Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand. This policy describes how we collect and use personal data when you visit our website or contact us about our services.
We take data protection seriously. We collect only what is needed for the service being provided and we do not share it with third parties for marketing purposes. Questions about this policy may be sent to [email protected].
Data we collect
When you use the contact form on this website or correspond with us by email or telephone, we may collect your name, email address, and telephone number. We also collect the details of the watch or watches you describe, which may include make, model, age, and condition. This information is used solely to assess and respond to your service enquiry.
The website may collect anonymised usage data through analytics cookies if you have consented to them. This data does not identify you individually and is used only to understand how the site is used so that we can improve it.
Legal basis: Processing of your contact information is based on your consent when you submit the form and on our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries about our services.
How we use your data
- To respond to your enquiry and arrange your service appointment
- To send written assessments and service updates related to your specific watch
- To maintain a record of work carried out (retained for three years after service completion)
- To improve the website using anonymised analytics data (if consented)
- We do not use your data for unsolicited marketing communications
Data retention
Contact enquiries that do not result in a service appointment are deleted within six months. Service records — which include the watch description and work carried out — are retained for three years to enable us to answer any follow-up questions and to provide a maintenance history for your watch if requested. After that period, records are deleted unless you request their retention.
Data protection measures
Customer records are stored in a password-protected system with access limited to workshop staff. Email correspondence is handled via encrypted connections. Physical records, where they exist, are stored in a locked cabinet within the workshop premises.
In the event of a data breach that may affect your rights, we will notify you without undue delay and in accordance with applicable Thai data protection requirements.
