This policy explains what data Stagecheck collects, why we collect it, and how we protect it. We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers. We collect only what we need to make the product work.
Stagecheck is operated as a sole trader product by Rob Nickels, based in Devon, United Kingdom. For privacy enquiries, contact us at hello@stagecheck.co.uk.
This policy applies to stagecheck.co.uk and any associated services. It is governed by UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
We collect the minimum data necessary to provide the service:

Your data is used solely to provide the Stagecheck service:
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond operating the product.
Under UK GDPR, we process your data on the following legal bases:
Your data is stored securely using Supabase (our database and authentication provider), hosted on AWS infrastructure in the EU region. Supabase acts as a data processor under a Data Processing Agreement.
Access to your data is protected by Row Level Security (RLS) — a database-level security layer that ensures each user can only access their own data, enforced independently of application code.
Passwords are never stored in plain text. All data is transmitted over HTTPS.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data, but no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your personal data and all associated project data will be permanently deleted within 30 days.
You can request deletion of your account and data at any time by emailing hello@stagecheck.co.uk.

Stagecheck is a professional tool intended for use by adults working in the built environment professions. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the age of 18.
Stagecheck is a compliance aid, not a substitute for professional judgement.
The checklists, reminders, deliverable lists, and other content generated by Stagecheck are provided as a tool to support architectural professionals in managing project compliance. They are based on general best practice and current UK regulations at the time of writing.
Stagecheck does not constitute professional advice. All checklist items, compliance prompts, and stage-specific reminders must be independently verified against the current versions of the relevant legislation, regulations, and guidance documents, including but not limited to:
Regulations, guidance, and best practice change over time. Stagecheck makes no guarantee that its content is current, complete, or applicable to any specific project. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure compliance with all applicable legislation and professional obligations.
Stagecheck accepts no liability for any loss, damage, claim, or professional consequence arising from reliance on the content of this application. Use of Stagecheck does not discharge any professional, statutory, or contractual duty of care.
If you are unsure whether a particular requirement applies to your project, consult the relevant regulatory body, building control authority, or a suitably qualified professional.
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. For significant changes, we will notify users by email. Continued use of Stagecheck after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
