4. What is StorerCheck?
StorerCheck is a database used by storage facilities which lists information on storers who have breached the storage agreement or have engaged in illegal or threatening behaviour.
Electrodry Storage Solutions may communicate with other users of the StorerCheck database and discuss information with them, such as your name, identifying details, storage history and account payment history. We may also update any details and personal information StorerCheck has. We may refuse you storage, or terminate your storage agreement, if you are listed with StorerCheck.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you have the right to disclose the personal information of your Alternative Contact Person’s personal information. We assume that the Alternative Contact Person is aware that their information has been disclosed to us.
6. How do we keep your personal information safe?
We store your information in both electronic and paper form and we take all reasonable precautions to protect these records from misuse or unauthorised access by using physical, electronic and procedural safeguards. It is our practice to destroy, delete or de-identify your personal information when it is no longer needed.
When you provide personal information, we assume it is correct unless you tell us otherwise. If your information changes, we ask you to advise us as soon as possible that the information is no longer accurate.
We may amend this policy from time to time to ensure that it is accurate and up to date.
If you do not consent to these terms, you should not apply for storage with us.
