This Privacy Policy explains how DAWSON'S TREE & GARDENING SERVICES LTD handles information in connection with Daws Forest Landscaping, the Android application published under the package name uk.co.dawsforest.landscape.dawstree.field. The app helps users assemble and validate a local-only structured outdoor works setup pack, including saving, reopening, duplicating and exporting the pack they have put together.
The policy describes what is stored on your device, the circumstances in which that content can leave it, and the choices that remain with you. Daws Forest Landscaping is a planning and configuration tool; it is not a quote, booking or lead service.
Information Stored on Your Device
Daws Forest Landscaping is built as a local-first application. The content you create while assembling a pack is held in the application's own storage on your Android device, and the core workflow does not require an account. This local content is not automatically transmitted to the developer as part of that workflow. The kinds of content typically held on the device are:
- Saved packs and pack variants
- Drafts saved automatically during the setup flow
- Copied summaries
- Local interface preferences
- A local record of previous exports, kept for convenience
Saving, Reopening and Duplicating Packs
Work on a pack is carried out on the device. Saving, reopening and duplicating drafts and pack variants are operations the application performs in its own local storage, and they do not involve sending the pack anywhere. Nothing about the day-to-day use of the app depends on the developer receiving a copy of your work.
Exporting, Copying and Sharing
The app allows you to export or copy a pack or summary through Android system actions, such as the Android share sheet. This happens only when you initiate it. Once a summary or file has been exported, it remains wherever you choose to save or send it, and any application you send it to handles that content under its own privacy practices.
Local Content and Developer-Side Collection
The important distinction in this policy is between content on your device and information held by the company. Packs, drafts, summaries, variants and preferences live in the application's storage on your device; the company does not receive them unless you deliberately send them. The app does not ask you for personal identity information in order to carry out its core workflow.
Because you decide what goes into a pack, that content may itself contain personal information — names, addresses or site notes, for example — so it is worth taking care with what you enter and with any file you choose to share.
If you contact the company by email, the company receives your email address and whatever your message contains. That correspondence is direct contact with the company and is separate from anything held inside the app on your device.
What the App Does Not Include
The application does not require login or account registration, does not use cloud synchronisation, does not hold your packs or drafts on company servers, and does not include payment processing, subscriptions or other monetisation features.
Important Use Notice
Daws Forest Landscaping is a planning aid. The packs and summaries it produces are built from the information you enter and are intended for informational and practical planning purposes only.
A pack is not a site survey, not an authoritative arboricultural assessment, and not a formal professional determination of planning, legal or safety matters. Nothing produced by the app constitutes legal, financial, insurance or regulatory advice, and it does not replace professional assessment, certification or approval by anyone qualified to give it.
How Long Local Data Is Kept
Local packs and drafts remain on your device until you delete them, clear the application's local data, or uninstall the application. No copy of that content is held by the company. Files you export or share remain wherever you have saved or sent them and stay under your control.
Local content is kept within the application's own storage area on your device and is not held on company servers. Protecting the device itself — for example through the screen lock you have configured — remains with you, as does the handling of any file you export or send to someone else.
Your Rights in the UK and EEA
The company is established in England, and users in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area may have rights under applicable data protection legislation, including rights of access, correction, deletion and restriction, where those rights apply under the law. Whether a particular right is available depends on whether personal data is processed and on the circumstances in which it is held.
Almost all of the content described in this policy sits on your own device, where you can manage it directly: by managing the content within the application, by clearing the application's local data, or by uninstalling the application. Any question about these rights can be raised with the company using the contact details below.
Children's Privacy
The app is intended for users aged 13 and above. It is not directed to children under 13, and the company does not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If information of that kind is identified, reasonable steps will be taken to delete it or otherwise address the situation.
Changes to This Policy
This policy may be revised from time to time to reflect changes in the application or in the way information is handled. When a revision is made, the revision date shown alongside this policy is updated, and the current version is the one that applies.
Company and Contact
Daws Forest Landscaping is provided by DAWSON'S TREE & GARDENING SERVICES LTD, which is responsible for the application and is the point of contact for questions about this policy.
