1. Website Terms of Use
Effective Date: August 2026
Welcome to the J-Cleans website. These Terms of Use govern your access to and browsing of this website. By accessing or using this site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please discontinue using the website.
1.1 Business Identity
This website is owned and operated by Jenna Morris trading as J-Cleans, an independent domestic and commercial cleaning service based in Balclutha, New Zealand, operating as a sole trader.
1.2 Website Content and Service Estimates
All information, service guides, and estimates on this website are provided for general informational purposes. Submitting an enquiry via the online quote form, telephone, or social media does not establish a binding cleaning contract. Confirmed bookings, cleaning schedules, and final pricing are agreed directly in writing between J-Cleans and the client prior to service commencement.
1.3 Cleaning Services and Statutory Rights
These terms govern the use of this website. Physical cleaning services performed by J-Cleans are subject to separate service agreements arranged at the time of booking. For domestic residential cleaning, nothing on this website limits, excludes, or modifies non-excludable statutory rights provided under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA) or the Fair Trading Act 1986. Where cleaning services are acquired for business purposes (such as offices or commercial premises), the parties agree that both parties are in trade and that the provisions of the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 do not apply to the transaction under Section 43 of that Act.
1.4 Acceptable Use
You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes related to seeking cleaning services in Balclutha and the wider Clutha District. You must not submit false or automated form enquiries, attempt to compromise website security, or interfere with Cloudflare edge protections.
1.5 External Relays and Third-Party Platforms
Digital communications initiated through this website rely on external infrastructure, including the FormSubmit email relay, Apple iCloud Mail, and Meta (Facebook Messenger). While transit encryption is maintained across standard channels, J-Cleans cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability of external platforms and accepts no liability for third-party transmission delays or outages.
1.6 Limitation of Liability
Except as required by New Zealand consumer legislation, J-Cleans excludes all liability for direct, indirect, or consequential loss arising from website downtime, minor typographical errors, or reliance on website content.
1.7 Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand. Any disputes arising in connection with the use of this website fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the New Zealand courts.
2. Privacy Policy
Compliance: New Zealand Privacy Act 2020
J-Cleans values your privacy and manages personal information in accordance with the 13 Information Privacy Principles established by the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020.
2.1 Personal Information Collected
When you use the online quote form on this website, J-Cleans collects only the details you submit voluntarily:
- Full Name
- Phone Number
- Email Address
- Service Required (e.g., regular home clean, one-off, deep, and tenancy clean, Airbnb turnover, commercial clean)
- Property details, general location, and preferred cleaning schedule
2.2 Purpose of Collection
Your details are collected solely to evaluate cleaning requirements, calculate accurate price estimates, organise booking times, and communicate directly with you regarding your service enquiry.
2.3 Data Routing and Storage
Website communications are encrypted in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS/HTTPS). Web form submissions are processed through the FormSubmit relay service and routed directly to a private, password-protected Apple iCloud email account. The receiving business email address is tokenised and obfuscated within site code to prevent harvest by scrapers. J-Cleans does not sell, rent, or trade contact details with commercial marketing networks.
2.4 Data Retention
Enquiry records are retained only as long as necessary to complete requested cleaning services, maintain ongoing client communication, or satisfy New Zealand business tax and accounting obligations.
2.5 Access and Correction Rights (IPPs 6 & 7)
Under the Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to request access to the personal information held about you, and to request the correction or removal of your details. To make an enquiry, please contact the Privacy Officer below.

3. Cookies and Tracking Policy
This section explains how cookies and operational technologies operate across the J-Cleans website.
3.1 Zero-Tracker Baseline
J-Cleans does not deploy behavioural tracking cookies, cross-site profiling pixels, or third-party advertising scripts. Google Search Console is used strictly for domain verification and sitemap indexing, and does not install tracking cookies on your device.
3.2 Essential Cloudflare Edge Security
This website is hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure. Cloudflare may deploy privacy-first, strictly necessary security cookies and edge tokens to distinguish legitimate traffic from automated bots and protect site uptime. These technical tokens do not track your personal identity or record browsing history across external websites.
3.3 Form Submissions
The quote form uses direct client-side script requests to forward enquiries directly to email. It does not place marketing or profiling cookies on your computer or phone.
3.4 External Messenger Link
The floating chat bubble is an outbound link to the official J-Cleans Facebook Messenger profile. It does not load external Meta tracking scripts or SDKs on this website. When you click the link, you are directed to Meta platforms where Meta's terms apply.
3.5 Cookie Management
You can manage or clear cookies through your browser preferences at any time. Disabling security cookies may affect how certain edge verification checks perform, but standard website content remains fully accessible.
