Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how beta3tanmya.com (“we”, “us”, “our”) processes personal data when you visit or interact with our website. It is written for visitors in the United Kingdom aged 18 or over and should be read together with our Cookie Policy. If you do not agree with this Policy, please discontinue use of the Site.

Who is responsible for your data

The data controller responsible for personal data processed in connection with this Site is the publisher operating beta3tanmya.com. For privacy requests, use the contact details at the end of this Policy. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18; if you believe a minor has provided data, contact us so we can delete it where appropriate.

What data we collect

Depending on how you use the Site, we may process: technical identifiers such as IP address, user agent string, device type, operating system, language preferences, referrer URL, pages viewed, timestamps, and approximate location derived from IP for aggregate analytics; communications data if you email us (your address, message content, attachments you choose to send, and metadata needed to deliver the message); and records of consent or preferences stored locally in your browser (for example cookie choices) where that storage constitutes personal data in combination with other identifiers. We do not require you to create an account to read general editorial content.

Legal bases under UK GDPR

Where UK GDPR applies, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases: legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the Site, understanding aggregated readership, preventing fraud and abuse, and defending legal claims, balanced against your rights; consent where we are required to obtain it (for example for certain non-essential cookies or marketing communications if ever offered); performance of a contract where we enter a direct agreement with you (for example responding to a paid service if introduced in the future); and legal obligation where we must retain or disclose information to comply with law or regulatory requests.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar local storage to remember essential preferences, maintain security, and—where you agree—support measurement of traffic. You can manage non-essential cookies through our banner and your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect Site functionality. See our Cookie Policy for categories, retention, and third-party considerations.

How we use data

We use personal data to provide and maintain the Site, diagnose errors, analyse performance in aggregate, respond to enquiries, enforce our terms, comply with legal duties, and protect the rights, safety, and property of users and the public. We do not sell your personal data. We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects solely by automated means in relation to visitors in the manner described here.

Sharing and processors

We may share data with hosting providers, content delivery networks, email delivery services, analytics vendors (where permitted), security services, and professional advisers, each bound by contractual confidentiality and processing terms consistent with this Policy. We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or to investigate suspected fraud or misuse. If the business is reorganised, personal data may transfer to a successor under safeguards required by law.

International transfers

Our infrastructure may involve processing in the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, or other countries. Where data is transferred outside the UK and not covered by adequacy regulations, we implement appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum, or equivalent mechanisms, unless a derogation applies.

Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes collected, including security logs, correspondence, and legal claims. Server logs are typically rotated or anonymised after a limited period. Email enquiries may be kept longer where needed to document our response or meet regulatory obligations.

Your rights

Subject to conditions in UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, you may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing, object to processing based on legitimate interests, data portability (where applicable), and to withdraw consent without affecting prior lawful processing. You may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). We will respond to valid requests within one month in most cases, extendable where complexity requires.

Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure; you should use updated browsers and device protections.

Third-party sites

The Site links to independent operators and resources. Their privacy notices govern data collected on their services. We encourage you to read those notices before submitting personal data or creating accounts.

Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy to reflect operational, legal, or regulatory changes. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date where we provide one. Continued use after updates constitutes notice unless the law requires a different process.
