Legal / Privacy
Privacy policy
We collect as little as possible: this site works without accounts, without profiling and without advertising trackers.
Last reviewed: Placeholder — set when this policy is first formally approved
Who is responsible
The data controller is [PLACEHOLDER — legal entity name to be supplied], at [PLACEHOLDER — registered address to be supplied]. Privacy contact: [PLACEHOLDER — privacy email to be supplied].
What we collect
- Technical request data — IP address, user agent, requested URL and timestamp, processed by our hosting provider to deliver pages and protect against abuse.
- Consent preference — your cookie choice, stored locally in your browser so we do not ask again.
- Messages you send us — the content of a contact or correction report and any details you choose to include.
We do not operate accounts, newsletters, comment systems, advertising networks, cross-site trackers, data brokerage or profiling on this site, and we do not knowingly collect data from children.
Why, and on what legal basis
- Serving pages and keeping the site secure — legitimate interests in operating a publication safely.
- Storing your cookie choice — your consent, and the need to record that choice.
- Replying to you — legitimate interests in responding to correspondence.
- Any optional analytics or embedded media — your consent only, requested before loading.
How long we keep it
Server logs are retained for a short operational period by the hosting provider. Correspondence is retained while it is needed to resolve your enquiry and to evidence corrections. Consent preferences remain in your browser until you clear them or withdraw consent.
Sharing and transfers
We share personal data only with processors that operate the site (hosting and content delivery) and where legally compelled. We do not sell personal data. Where data is transferred outside your region, we rely on the safeguards offered by those providers. Processor details: [PLACEHOLDER — processor list to be supplied].
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or object to processing, and you may withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior processing. See the GDPR and data rights page for how to exercise these and how to complain to a supervisory authority.
Cookies
