In some cases, we may collect personal information from publically available sources and third parties, such as suppliers, recruitment agencies, contractors, our clients and business partners.

Aston Homes may hold personal information as either secure physical records, electronically on our intranet system, in cloud storage, and in some cases, records on third party servers which may be located overseas.
We maintain appropriate physical, procedural and technical security for our offices and information storage facilities to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, or modification of personal information.
