Privacy notice · pre-launch

How we handle your details.

This covers the information you share through the founding-spot enquiry form on this site. KeyProof is a pre-launch venture, so this notice will be expanded with full company details before we go live.

Who we are

KeyProof is a pre-launch product for car-hire firms. It is currently operated by Bygild, a trading name of Khalid Mohamed, who is the data controller responsible for your information until KeyProof is formally incorporated, at which point the full company details will be added here. For any privacy question, or to exercise your rights below, contact us at privacy@keyproof.co.uk.

What we collect

Only what you put into a form on this site (the founding-spot form or the contact form): your name, your phone number, and, depending on the form, your hire firm's name, a rough fleet size, an email, an Instagram or WhatsApp handle, and a message. We don't collect anything else. There are no advertising cookies on this site, and any analytics we use is privacy-friendly and cookieless: we use Vercel Web Analytics, which measures page traffic without cookies and without building a profile of you. We also keep our own aggregate count of page views, by day and by page, with no cookies and nothing that identifies you.

Why, and our lawful basis

We use these details for one thing: to contact you about a founding spot and answer your enquiry. Our lawful basis is legitimate interest, because you've asked us to get in touch, so a reply is expected. We won't use your details for marketing without asking you separately first.

Who we share it with

Every submission reaches us by email through our website host (Vercel) and our email provider (Resend). Founding-spot enquiries are also stored in our database (Neon) and may be copied to Notion so we can keep track of them; contact-form messages are handled by email only. Vercel, Resend, Neon and Notion act as our processors: they handle your data only to provide these services to us, and don't use it for their own purposes. We don't sell or share your details with anyone else.

Where it's processed

Vercel, Resend and Notion are US-based, so some processing may happen outside the UK; our database (Neon) stores your details in a UK/EU region. Where data is processed outside the UK, the transfer is covered by the safeguards UK data-protection law requires, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA), or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

How long we keep it

If we don't end up working together, we delete your enquiry within 12 months of our last contact. If you become a client, your details move under your client agreement instead.

Your rights

You can ask us to show you what we hold, correct it, delete it, or stop using it, at any time. Because we rely on legitimate interest, you also have the right to object to us processing your details, and we'll stop unless we have a compelling reason not to. Just ask, and we'll sort it. You can also complain to the UK's data-protection regulator, the ICO, at ico.org.uk.

Changes

We'll update this notice with full company and contact details, named providers, and registration information before KeyProof launches publicly.
