The data controller
The person responsible for the data collected at https://casualmeetwales.uk is the private individual who operates the site, acting in a personal, non-commercial capacity.
Under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, the operator determines the means and purposes of the processing. You can get in touch through the site's contact form.
Why your data is processed
The data is used solely to operate the service and communicate with you. Processing rests on our legitimate interest in the secure operation of the site under Article 6(1)(f) of the UK GDPR, and, where required, your consent under Article 6(1)(a). Your data is never sold or rented to anyone for marketing.
Security
Data is sent over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection. Only those who need access have it, and suitable technical and organisational measures protect against loss, alteration or unauthorised access.
Storage period
Data is retained only as long as necessary for the relevant purpose, after which it is erased, unless a legal obligation requires it to be kept longer. Access logs are held briefly and then deleted.
Access data
When the site is accessed, the server keeps a technical record including IP address, timestamp, the page requested and browser type. This data keeps the service secure and is kept only briefly.
Cookies and local storage
This site uses only cookies that are strictly necessary for it to work. Advertising or analytics cookies are set only with your consent, in line with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), and you can withdraw that consent at any time. Your browser settings also let you refuse cookies.
