What safeguards are in place to protect your personal information?

While we take efforts to safeguard your personal information, which are consistent with relevant laws, the nature of the internet is such that we cannot guarantee absolutely the security of any personal information you disclose online.

What rights do you have to review and amend personal information?

How does National Tool Hire Ltd make money?

We partner with regulated high quality service providers, selected by us to offer the best possible mix of service, price and availability to our customers. We make money when we find our customers a deal on their tool or equipment hire. For example, each time someone hires a product, having found a product through us, we get paid a fee as a percentage of the hire value, upon successful completion of a hire or hire period, that our partner has been paid for. The service is free to use and the fee we receive does not affect the way we rank products or providers - we always order results from the search term you have entered online or within the website.
