Privacy Policy

How this site handles personal data and your rights under applicable law.

Last updated: 28 May 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how brindlebrook.eu collects, uses, and stores information when you visit this site. This site is a static informational resource. It does not operate user accounts, process payments, or store form submissions on a server.

2. Data Controller

The data controller for this website is Brindlebrook, operated for the domain brindlebrook.eu. For data-related enquiries, contact: contact@brindlebrook.eu.

3. Information Collected

3.1 Server Logs

Web server software may automatically record standard log entries when pages are requested. These typically include the requesting IP address, browser type, referring URL, and the date and time of the request. Log data is used for operational purposes only and is not retained beyond standard server log rotation periods.

3.2 Contact Form

This site includes a contact form that asks for a name, email address, phone number, and message. The form operates entirely in the browser using JavaScript simulation. No data entered in the form is transmitted to or stored on any server. The form is provided solely as a visual interface element consistent with the site's informational purpose.

3.3 Local Storage

This site stores a single item in your browser's localStorage to record whether you have acknowledged the cookie notice. The key used is cookie_choice and the value is either accepted or rejected. This data remains on your device and is not transmitted anywhere. It can be cleared by clearing your browser's site data.

4. Cookies

This site does not set HTTP cookies. The localStorage item described above is not a cookie. No third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking scripts are loaded on this site.

5. Third-Party Content

Some images displayed on this site are loaded directly from Wikimedia Commons servers at upload.wikimedia.org. When your browser loads these images, a request is made to Wikimedia servers. Wikimedia's own privacy policy governs any data processing that occurs as a result: Wikimedia Privacy Policy.

Google Fonts may be loaded from Google's servers to provide web font rendering. This subjects the request to Google's privacy policies. Where possible, consider using a browser that limits third-party requests if this is a concern.

6. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data held about you. As this site holds no personal data on its servers, there is typically no data to access or delete. For any questions about data processing related to server logs, contact: contact@brindlebrook.eu.

7. Data Retention

Server log data, if retained by the hosting provider, is subject to the hosting provider's own data retention policies. Brindlebrook does not independently retain any user data.

8. Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 16 years of age and does not knowingly collect information from children.

9. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
