No cookies or tracking
This website does not set cookies, does not use analytics or advertising, and does not store anything in your browser. There are no forms on the site.
Server logs
Like most web servers, the server that hosts this site keeps a log of requests. Each entry records your IP address, the date and time, the page or file requested, the page that linked to it, and your browser's user-agent string.
I use these logs only to keep the site working and secure, for example to spot faults and attacks. The lawful basis is my legitimate interest in running a secure website. Logs are deleted automatically after 14 days.
The server is a virtual private server provided by Fasthosts, which stores the data on my behalf.
If you email or phone me
If you contact me, I use your name, contact details and message only to reply to you. The lawful basis is my legitimate interest in responding to enquiries. I keep the correspondence only as long as needed to deal with it.
The UNO game
When you play, the name you type and your moves are sent to the game server at api.sbrownit.co.uk, which runs on the same server as this site. They are held in memory for the game only and are not saved. Everything the game needs is served from this server; no third-party services are involved. Connections to the game server appear in the server logs described above.
Links to other sites
Links to LinkedIn, YouTube and other websites take you to services I do not control. Their own privacy policies apply once you leave this site.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to ask for a copy of your personal data, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to its use, and to complain. To use any of these rights, email me at the address above.
If you are unhappy with how I have handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or on 0303 123 1113.
