Privacy policy

Who is responsible

Russell Blight, a sole trader trading as Bathroom Tech Guide, based in Wales, United Kingdom, is the controller responsible for personal information used by this website. Contact for privacy matters: rbcentraluk@gmail.com.

This notice covers our website and correspondence, not linked retailers or your own email and network providers.

Information we handle

The site has no analytics, advertising pixels, session recording, contact forms, newsletter sign-up, accounts or checkout. No affiliate tracking is currently active. You do not need to provide your name or contact details to read the pages.

Delivering pages involves connection information such as your IP address and the requested URL. Our hosting provider may process request times, browser information, referrers, response status and diagnostic logs. The absence of analytics does not mean that no personal information is processed.

If you email us, we receive your email address, any name or signature you include, your message, attachments and associated email information. Please send only relevant details, not passwords, card details, identity documents or sensitive medical information.

Why information is used

We use necessary technical information to deliver pages, protect the site and investigate faults or abuse. Our lawful basis is legitimate interests in operating a reliable and secure information website.

We use correspondence to respond to enquiries, investigate corrections or complaints and keep relevant records. Our lawful basis is legitimate interests in communicating with people who contact us and maintaining accurate content. Where a specific legal obligation requires processing, we rely on that obligation.

We do not sell personal information, use enquiries for a mailing list or make solely automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects. Emailing us is not consent to marketing.

Service providers and international processing

Namecheap provides static website hosting. Google Gmail provides our contact mailbox. These services handle technical information or correspondence needed to deliver their services, under the terms and privacy notices applicable to them.

Provider services may involve processing outside the United Kingdom. We do not claim that all information stays in the UK. Contact rbcentraluk@gmail.com for information about the arrangements relevant to your data.

We may share information with service providers, professional advisers or authorities where necessary and lawful for delivery, security, support or legal obligations. We do not pass enquiry details to retailers to generate leads.

How long information is kept

Correspondence is kept only as needed to handle the enquiry, follow up a correction or complaint, meet a legal obligation or establish or defend legal claims. Retention depends on the purpose and circumstances; we do not promise a fixed automatic deletion period.

Hosting logs and provider-held records are also subject to the providers' retention arrangements. Contact us with questions about information relating to you.

Your rights and complaints

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct, erase or restrict use of your personal information, and to data portability. You can object to processing based on legitimate interests for reasons relating to your situation. We must consider the objection and stop unless the law permits continued processing. If processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting earlier lawful processing.

Email rbcentraluk@gmail.com to exercise your rights. We may request information reasonably needed to verify your identity or understand the request, and will respond within applicable legal time limits.

You can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/. You do not have to contact us first.

Children and changes

The site is aimed at adults researching household purchases. We do not request children's information. Contact us if unnecessary information has been sent.

We will update this notice if our use of personal information changes, including if we introduce forms, analytics, accounts or affiliate tracking.
