Privacy Policy & Confidentiality

We operate under strict Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDA) and comply fully with the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for all B2B procurement partners across Europe.

1

Executive Commitment & Scope

Spark Plug Hub ("we", "our", or "us") provides B2B valuation, logistics coordination, and procurement services for decommissioned industrial gas engine spark plugs across European Union countries, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. We recognize that our clients—including independent power producers (IPPs), combined heat & power (CHP) operators, biogas plants, and maintenance facilities—require absolute discretion regarding their asset liquidation and scrap inventories.

Information We Collect

We only collect information strictly necessary to provide an accurate valuation and coordinate cross-border logistics:

  • Technical Inventory Data: Photographs of spark plug electrodes, brand names (Jenbacher, MWM, CAT, Wartsila, etc.), estimated piece counts, and engine running hours.
  • Business Contact Information: Company name, facility address, email address, direct telephone / WhatsApp number, and EU VAT number (for European reverse-charge compliance).
  • Logistics Coordination: Pickup location details, facility loading bay requirements, and recipient shipping documentation.

Corporate Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)

Every inquiry received via WhatsApp, email, or our valuation portal is treated as strictly proprietary B2B commercial communication:

Zero Third-Party Disclosures: We never sell, lease, or reveal client identities, scrap volumes, or engine maintenance schedules to competitor operators or component brokers.

Discrete Shipping Manifests: Shipments processed via DHL/FedEx from your European facility are routed without revealing sensitive operational metadata to external intermediaries.

European GDPR Compliance & Your Rights

Under the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) and the UK Data Protection Act, our European clients retain full statutory rights over their organizational data:

  • Right to Access & Rectification: You may request an export of all data stored concerning your business entity at any time.
  • Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): Once a scrap batch is received, assayed, and paid for, you can request full cryptographic deletion of all batch photos and facility records.
  • Lawful Basis: Data is processed exclusively under Legitimate Interest and Contractual Fulfillment for valuation and courier scheduling.

Data Security & Storage Protocols

All digital records, valuation photos, and transaction sheets are housed on secure, encrypted servers with strict two-factor authentication. Inbound WhatsApp and email communications are purged in accordance with our 12-month archival cycle, ensuring your operational waste streams remain confidential.
