Yes. Every tyre centre in Roscommon that processes personal data of EU residents must comply with GDPR. This includes collecting customer names, email addresses, payment details, or any information that can identify a person. Non-compliance can result in fines of up to €20 million or 4% of annual global turnover. The Data Protection Commission (DPC) in Ireland is actively enforcing these rules.

REQUIRED DOCUMENTS
Every Tyre Centre in Ireland needs these documents to demonstrate GDPR compliance.
STEP BY STEP
Display a clear privacy notice in your reception area and on your website explaining what customer and vehicle data you collect and why.
Review your booking system and delete records for customers who have not visited in the past 3 years.
If you offer seasonal tyre storage, include clear data handling terms in the storage agreement and delete customer data promptly when they collect their tyres or cancel the service.
Ensure your CCTV complies with DPC guidance including signage at all entrances to fitting bays and customer areas.
Put data processing agreements in place with your booking platform, any warranty claim systems, and payment processors.
Separate personal contact data from fleet account data where fleet contacts are using personal phone numbers or email addresses.
Train front-of-house staff not to leave booking sheets or invoices with customer details visible to other customers in the waiting area.
COMMON PITFALLS
Keeping decades of customer and vehicle records in the booking system because the data was never reviewed or deleted.
Not providing any privacy notice to customers because tyre fitting is perceived as a simple transaction that does not involve personal data.
Leaving printed booking sheets and invoices in the fitting bay or reception where other customers can see personal details.
Assuming fleet account data is purely business data when it often includes personal mobile numbers and personal email addresses.
