Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026. Plain-English summary of what we collect, what we don't, and your rights.

What we collect

  • Newsletter signups: if you subscribe, we store your email address. We use it only to send the newsletter and never sell it.
  • Business submissions: if you submit a business, we store the submission details to review and respond.
  • Analytics: we use privacy-respecting analytics (Plausible or a self-hosted equivalent) to understand traffic patterns. No personal identifiers, no cross-site tracking.

What we don't collect

  • We don't run third-party advertising.
  • We don't use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or similar trackers.
  • We don't sell or share your email with anyone.
  • We don't fingerprint your browser.

Cookies

We use a minimal number of cookies, only where strictly necessary (for example, to remember your newsletter subscription). No advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking cookies.

Your rights (UK GDPR)

  • Right of access — you can ask what data we hold on you.
  • Right of erasure — you can ask us to delete your data.
  • Right of rectification — you can ask us to correct inaccurate data.
  • Right to object — you can object to processing at any time.

Data retention

Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe. Business submissions are kept for 12 months for review and then deleted.
