Privacy Policy

PIA Register collects engineer registration details to operate a searchable public directory for Openreach Physical Infrastructure Access work.

Data We Collect

Registered engineers provide full legal name, email address, full address, home town, postcode, date of birth, selected PIA certifications, certificate evidence files, and consent records.

Public Data

The public directory shows only full legal name, home town and selected PIA certifications. Radius search uses postcode coordinates to calculate distance, but exact address, postcode, date of birth and email address are not returned by the public API.

How Data Is Used

Private registration data and certificate evidence are stored to review submissions, maintain the directory, support account and consent records, prevent duplicate submissions, and help resolve data requests.

Processors

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and uses Cloudflare D1 for database storage. Cloudflare Turnstile is used to protect registration forms from abuse. Postcode lookups are sent to postcodes.io to validate UK postcodes and calculate approximate coordinates for radius search.

Retention And Rights

Engineers can request correction or removal of their listing by contacting privacy@piaregister.co.uk. Requests will be reviewed against any legal or operational need to retain consent records.
