Privacy Policy (Your Data)

We know privacy policies are usually full of legal jargon and enthusiasm-killing paragraphs. This isn't one of those.

Here's the simple version:

We collect what we need to manufacture your furniture, keep things running smoothly, and occasionally tell you something useful. We don't sell your data. Ever.

1. Who We Are

We are CustomCupboard.co.uk, a trading name of LAJ Holdings Ltd, a UK-based company, manufacturing and selling made-to-measure furniture.

We only operate in the UK, and we handle your data in line with UK data protection laws.

2. What We Collect (The Useful Stuff)

Information you give us

When you use our website, design a piece of furniture, or place an order, we may collect:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Billing and delivery address
  • Payment information (processed securely - more on that below)
  • Furniture designs, measurements, and specifications

If you create an account, we'll also store:

  • Your saved designs
  • Quotes
  • Order history

So you can pick up where you left off without starting from scratch every time.

If you hold a trade account with us, we also collect your business details - company name, trade contact details, and any discount or account arrangements - alongside the personal data above.

Information collected automatically

We also collect some technical data when you use our site, like:

  • IP address
  • Device and browser type
  • Pages visited and how you use the site

This helps us fix issues, improve things, and understand what's working (and what's not).

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data to:

  • Design, manufacture, and deliver your furniture
  • Process payments
  • Keep you updated about your order
  • Provide customer support
  • Improve our website and services

We'll also use it for marketing (emails, SMS, ads) - but only if you've agreed to it.

No spam. No nonsense. And you can opt out anytime.

4. Payments (Safe Hands Only)

We only use trusted third-party payment providers to handle transactions.

When you enter your payment details, we don't store them... We don't even see them. They're processed securely by experts who specialise in keeping that kind of information safe.

That means:

We don't store your full payment details

Your payment is processed securely by specialists who know what they're doing

Pro Tip: Always stick to what you're best at... We're good at furniture, not payment processing. So we leave that to the pros.

5. Marketing (Only If You're Into It)

If you've opted in, we may send:

  • Emails
  • SMS messages

These might include offers, updates, or ideas to help with your project.

You can unsubscribe anytime:

  • Click the link in emails
  • Reply STOP to texts
  • Or just ask us nicely

We'll take the hint.

Pro Tip: Advertising is everywhere, but at least with us, it's stuff you might actually care about... We hope.

6. Ads & Analytics (Behind-the-Scenes)

We use tools like:

  • Google Ads
  • Facebook/Instagram (Meta) Ads
  • Analytics tools

These help us:

  • Show relevant ads (instead of random ones you don't care about)
  • Understand how people use our website
  • Improve your overall experience

These tools may use cookies and similar tech to do their thing.

7. Cookies (Non-Edible, Sorry)

Cookies help our website work properly and remember your preferences.

They are genuinely useful little bits of code that make your experience smoother and save you from having to re-enter information every time.

We use them to:

  • Keep the site running smoothly
  • Analyse usage
  • Support our marketing efforts

You can control cookies through your browser settings if you prefer to keep things on a tighter leash.

8. How We Keep Your Data Safe

We use appropriate security measures to protect your data, including:

  • Secure systems
  • Controlled access
  • Trusted third-party services

No system is completely foolproof, but we take this seriously and do our best to keep everything locked down.

We don't sell your data. Not now, not ever.

We only share it where necessary, such as with:

  • Payment providers
  • Delivery partners
  • IT and website service providers
  • Marketing and analytics platforms

They only get the information they need to do their job - nothing extra.

9. Your Rights (You're in Control)

We keep your data for as long as needed to:

  • Complete your order
  • Provide support
  • Meet legal and accounting requirements

After that, it's either deleted or anonymised.

Under UK data protection law, you can:

  • Request access to your data
  • Ask us to correct anything inaccurate
  • Request deletion (where applicable)
  • Object to certain uses
  • Withdraw consent for marketing at any time

If you want to do any of the above, just get in touch - no forms from 1998 required.

10. Complaints (Hopefully Not Needed)

If you're not happy with how we've handled your data, please contact us and we'll try to sort it.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) - the UK's data protection authority.

Honestly we try really hard and want to get it right, so if there's an issue, please give us a chance to fix it first.

Email us at ( Click to reveal email address) and we'll do our best to make things right.

11. Miscellaneous Stuff

If you click a link to another website, their privacy rules apply - not ours. Worth checking their policy if you're unsure.

Pro Tip: just stay on our site and you'll be fine.

We may update this from time to time. If anything major changes, we'll make it clear.

How It Works For Trade
1. Design It In The Room

Sit down with your customer and design it live - sloped ceilings, tight alcoves, compound angles, our design tool works out the geometry and cut list automatically.

2. Quote On The Spot

No back-and-forth, no waiting on a quote. Price it there and then, and close the job in one visit.

3. We Manufacture It

Every panel arrives cut to size and drilled, ready to assemble. No workshop time, no wasted stock, no offcuts.

4. You Assemble, Fit & Get Paid

That's your skilled labour - you assemble, fit, and finish it on site, and your customer pays you for the job.

Limited Only By Your Imagination

Our furniture system is built to be adaptable to any space - it is whatever you need it to be, from wide and tall units to maximize your storage to compact or even sloped units to fill awkward spaces.

So if you're unsure, or have a tricky project, please get in touch and we can create a bespoke solution for you.

Measuring Guide
The Core Idea

Whatever dimension you type into a field is the whole, finished size of that section - not a door size, not an internal size. We calculate the individual door sizes, internal widths, and everything else from that total automatically.

A dimension entered on a cupboard section is the whole finished size - door widths are calculated from it automatically
Wall-To-Wall (Fitted) Units

If a unit runs wall to wall, it will normally have trim panels (infill panels) down each side, this is your tolerance - 50mm by default, though you can set a different figure if you prefer.

  • The 50mm is what we expect the trim to end up being. Trims are supplied oversized and cut down to fit on site, so if your measuring is slightly off, the trim simply ends up a bit bigger or smaller.
  • Measure wall to wall, ignoring skirting boards - unless they're unusually large, or you're using a small tolerance.

Freestanding Units

If a unit is freestanding, it has its own end panels (and feet). Enter the exact overall size you need - that's the whole bounding box: end panels, feet, everything included.

  • No tolerance is added automatically - you're telling us the size, so we build to that size.
  • If you're placing it into a tight space, it's on you to calculate the clearance and enter a slightly smaller size to allow for it.
A freestanding unit's overall size includes its end panels and feet, with no automatic tolerance
Floor To Ceiling (Or Not)

Going to the ceiling works the same as wall to wall, just vertically: set a tolerance (50mm default, recommended) and measure the full floor-to-ceiling height. A top trim absorbs the difference. If you're not going to the ceiling, there's no top trim - enter the exact height you want the top of the unit to be.

Going to the ceiling uses a top trim to absorb the tolerance; not going to the ceiling uses the exact height entered
Skirting Boards & Obstacles

Generally, ignore skirting boards. It only matters if the skirting is deep enough to reach into the tolerance zone. If so:

  1. Use a bigger tolerance.
  2. Keep the default tolerance, but measure extra carefully - your true working tolerance is smaller.
  3. Remove a section of skirting.
  4. Design around it. If unsure, get in touch and we'll help.
If deep skirting reaches into the tolerance zone, use a bigger tolerance, measure more carefully, remove the skirting, or design around it

This guide is informational and not a legal waiver - measuring correctly, and understanding how the tool works, is your responsibility.

Fitted Vs Freestanding
photos-optimised/scribed.png
Fitted

The major difference with fitted furniture is that we provide infill panels to fill the gap between the furniture and the wall. These panels come oversized in case your measurements are not precise or your walls are not perfectly straight. Which means you get a perfect fit, but it does require some cutting.

Freestanding

With freestanding, you get exactly the same made-to-measure furniture, but we finish it with end panels, no cutting required. You should measure skirting to skirting and then take off 2-10cm for tollerance. This leaves a small "shadow gap" at the sides and top, but it also means no cutting is required.

Functionally, the product is the same, but the installation is different.
