Upload & Document Handling Notice

Last updated: 3 July 2026

Draft for review: this document is professionally written placeholder copy prepared for EdgelineQS. It is not legal advice and should be reviewed by a qualified adviser before the site launches commercially.

What you can upload

The contact form accepts drawings, Bills of Quantities, schedules, specifications, tender packs and contract documents in PDF, Excel, Word, image and ZIP formats, up to 25 MB per file and 15 files per enquiry.

How your documents are stored

Files are stored in private storage — they are never placed in a public folder and have no public web address
Files can only be retrieved through an authenticated admin login used by EdgelineQS
File names, types and sizes are recorded against your enquiry so nothing is lost or mixed up between projects
Transfers to and from the site are encrypted (HTTPS)

How your documents are used

Documents are used solely to review your project and respond to your enquiry — for example, measuring quantities from drawings, checking a subcontract, or reviewing a tender pack. They are not shared with third parties, used for marketing, or used on other clients' work.

Commercial confidentiality

EdgelineQS works with commercially sensitive tender and contract information as a matter of course and treats all uploaded material as confidential. If you require a signed non-disclosure agreement before sharing documents, request one at Luke@edgelineqs.com before uploading.

Retention and deletion

Documents are kept while your enquiry or engagement is live, then retained or deleted as described in the Privacy Policy. You can request deletion of your uploaded files at any time by emailing Luke@edgelineqs.com.
