What this website records about you
Short, and only what our own records support. If you have a question this page does not answer, ring the workshop and ask.
Who you are dealing with
This website belongs to Heritage & Decorative Timber Products, a period timber joinery at 852 Mountain Highway, Bayswater VIC 3153. Everything we make is made in Australia, in that workshop.
You can reach us on 03 9720 1996 or at info@heritagedecorativetimber.com.au. Either is the right way to raise anything on this page.
What we ask you for
When you send us a quote request through this site, from our quote page or contact page, the form asks for
- your name;
- your email address;
- your phone number;
- your postcode;
- and a description of the job.
Your name, email address, phone number, postcode and job description are required so that we can identify the enquiry, clarify the measurements and return a useful quotation. Opening sizes, call-back time and extra notes are optional unless the selected made-to-size item needs them. The quote page also includes the items you added to your quote list.
The enquiry forms can accept photographs or drawings. Selecting a file does not send it. When you submit the form, your details and selected attachments are uploaded to the website server and sent to the workshop by email.
To protect an unfinished enquiry from a reload or crash, the forms keep a temporary draft in this browser tab. That draft can include the details listed above, is stored only for the browser session, and is not uploaded just because you typed it. The draft uses browser session storage; a browser that restores tabs may also restore that draft. The quote list uses local storage and can remain in this browser between visits. Remove items from the quote list or clear this site's browser storage to remove that local list.
If you ring us or email us instead, then what we hold is whatever you chose to tell us in that call or that message.
What we do with it
We use it to price your enquiry, to send you a written quotation, and to talk to you about that quotation. That is what it is for.
The website sends submitted enquiries to info@heritagedecorativetimber.com.au. The workshop uses Google Workspace email to receive and handle them. A success message means the website's mail service accepted the enquiry; it does not mean a staff member has already read it.
What the website records on its own
Separately from anything you type, this site carries the measurement and advertising tags this business runs. Each one is a service run by another company, not by us, and each holds what it collects under its own terms.
- Google Analytics records which pages are looked at and how visitors arrived at them, so that we can see which pages are useful.
- Google Ads records that a visit came from one of our advertisements, and whether it led to an enquiry or a phone call.
- Google Ads call tracking. The phone number shown on this site may be a Google forwarding number so that calls from advertisements can be measured.
- Website hosting. Panthur hosts this website. The hosting service handles requests and submitted enquiry details and attachments. The enquiry service uses your IP address to limit repeated submissions.
Cookies
Those services set cookies in your browser. You can block them or delete them in your browser's settings, and the site still works: the quote form does not depend on a cookie to send.
Asking us what we hold
If you want to know what we hold about you, or you want it corrected, or you want it off our records, ring us on 03 9720 1996 or email info@heritagedecorativetimber.com.au and ask. Tell us enough about your enquiry for us to find it.
Other pages you may be looking for
How your order reaches you is on our delivery and pickup page, and returns are covered on our returns and refunds page.
Updated 9 October 2026 for the new website. This page describes what this website does. If there is something you want to ask about that is not here, ring the workshop and ask.
Join our newsletter
What happens when you sign up, in plain terms:
- The secure form sends your signup directly to info@heritagedecorativetimber.com.au and confirms only after the website accepts it.
- We use the address to send you news about the workshop and the ranges, and for nothing else. No frequency is promised here, because none has been set.
- Enquiries answered within one business day, so if you write a question into the same message you will get an answer.
