Who we are

Gollings Restoration Management manages the transport, storage, consultation, custodian care and restoration of premium and classic vehicles from Crewe in Cheshire. We are the data controller for the personal information described on this page. Our contact details are on the contact page.

What we collect, and why

When you enquire

The enquiry form asks for your name, your email address, your telephone number if you want to give it, the car, what you need, a message, and up to three photographs of the car. We use this to answer your enquiry, to assess the car and to prepare for the work you have asked about. The legal basis is that you have asked us to take steps before entering into a contract. Where no contract follows, our legitimate interest in answering the people who contact us applies.

When you call, email or visit

We keep the details we need to look after your car and carry out your instructions: contact details, notes about the car, quotations, reports, photographs of the work and the paperwork that goes with a restoration. The legal basis is the contract between us, and the obligations that come with running a business, such as keeping accounts.

When you visit this website

The website counts page views so that we can see which pages are read. It does not record who you are. The section on cookies and analytics below says exactly what is recorded.

Cookies and analytics

This website sets no cookies on your device and stores nothing in your browser. We checked this on 8 November 2026 and will check again whenever the site changes.

Two services count visits:

• Jetpack Stats, run by Automattic Inc. It records the page viewed, the page you came from, the type of browser, and an approximate location worked out from your IP address. It sets no cookies for visitors, and it is set to respect a Do Not Track signal from your browser.
• Gauges, used by our hosting provider, Pressable, to count visits to the sites it hosts. It records the page, the referring page, the browser and the IP address. It sets no cookies.

We rely on our legitimate interest in knowing whether the website is being read. Neither service tells us who you are, and we do not combine these figures with anything you send us.

If you sign in to this website to manage its content, WordPress sets the cookies it needs to keep you signed in. Visitors are never signed in.

Where your information is kept

Enquiries are stored on this website, which is hosted by Pressable, part of Automattic Inc., on servers in Amsterdam in the Netherlands. A copy of each enquiry is emailed to us. Backups of the website are kept by Pressable and by Jetpack, which is also part of Automattic. Automattic is based in the United States and processes data under its data processing agreement, which includes the safeguards UK data protection law requires for transfers outside the UK.

Paperwork about your car and the work on it is kept in our own records.

Who we share it with

The specialists who work on your car are given what they need to do the job, and no more. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for marketing. We will disclose information where the law requires it.

How long we keep it

We keep an enquiry while we are dealing with it, and for a reasonable period afterwards in case you come back to us. We review stored enquiries at least once a year and delete those we no longer need. Records of work we have done for you are kept for as long as the law requires us to keep business records.

Photographs

The cars photographed on this website have been in our care. If your car appears here and you would rather it did not, tell us and we will remove it.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask us for a copy of the information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it, ask us to limit how we use it, object to our using it, and in some cases ask for it in a form you can take elsewhere. Write to us using the details on the contact page and we will respond within one month.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We would rather you told us first, so that we can put it right.
