2. Legal framework

Personal data is handled in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 and any other regulations in force in United Kingdom. Should this policy ever conflict with the law, the law takes precedence.

3. Data Collected

We collect information you voluntarily provide through the contact form, such as your name and email address, alongside standard server log data like IP address, browser type, and pages visited, and, where you consent, analytics cookie data reflecting how you navigate trail guides and gear reviews.

4. Purposes and Legal Basis

We process contact form submissions to respond to reader questions and corrections, a purpose based on legitimate interest and, where applicable, contractual necessity in replying to your inquiry, while server logs support site security and technical functioning under legitimate interest. Analytics cookie data is processed only with your consent, given through the cookie banner, to help us understand which content is most useful.

Contact form messages are retained only as long as needed to address the inquiry and are then deleted or archived securely, server logs are typically kept for a limited period for security purposes, and analytics data is retained according to the settings of the analytics provider we use, generally no longer than is necessary for reporting purposes.

We may rely on third-party service providers, such as web hosting and analytics platforms, that process data on our behalf under their own security and privacy safeguards, and these providers are selected based on their compliance with applicable data protection standards. We do not sell personal data to third parties.
