Privacy Policy

How we collect, use and protect personal information you share with us.

1. Who we are

Silverdale Doodles ("we", "us", "our") is a small family Goldendoodle breeding programme based on the Isle of Man. For the purposes of the Isle of Man's GDPR and LED Implementing Regulations 2018, we act as the data controller for personal data you share with us through this website, by email, or by phone.

2. The information we collect

  • Contact details (name, email, phone, address)
  • Information you provide in the puppy reservation form (household, lifestyle, garden, work pattern, prior pet experience)
  • Correspondence with us by email, web form, phone or message
  • Limited technical data automatically collected when you visit (IP address, browser type, pages viewed) for security and analytics

3. Why we collect it

To respond to enquiries, assess puppy reservation applications, match puppies to suitable homes, fulfil our breeder contract obligations, provide lifetime breeder support, and meet our legal record-keeping duties as a dog breeder under Isle of Man law.

4. Lawful basis

We rely primarily on (a) your consent (e.g. submitting an application), (b) the performance of a contract (when you reserve or purchase a puppy), and (c) our legitimate interests in operating an ethical breeding programme and keeping accurate records.

5. Sharing

We do not sell or rent your personal data. We share information only with: our veterinary practice (for health records relating to your puppy), our insurance partner (where you opt in to free starter cover), and trusted technical service providers who host this site and our email — all bound by appropriate confidentiality and data protection terms.

6. Retention

Reservation enquiries are kept for up to 3 years. Records relating to puppies we have placed (including microchip, vaccination, contract and health records) are retained for the lifetime of the dog and a further 6 years thereafter, in line with our breeder obligations.

7. Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to our processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability, subject to the conditions set out in the Isle of Man GDPR. To exercise any right, email us at contact@silverdaledoodles.com. You may also lodge a complaint with the Isle of Man Information Commissioner.

8. Cookies

We use a small number of essential cookies to keep this site working (e.g. remembering your cookie choice and authenticating admin users). With your consent we may also use anonymous analytics. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing site data in your browser.

9. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be notified on this page with a revised "last updated" date.
