Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
thicket-den.com (“Thicket Den”, “we”, “us”) is an independent informational and promotional website. For privacy queries, contact [email protected].
2. Information we process
This static build does not include account registration, lead forms or checkout. Our hosting provider may process standard server-log data such as IP address, browser type, requested page, timestamp and technical security information. If you contact us by email, we process the information you choose to provide so we can respond.
3. Cookies and similar technologies
The site uses local storage to remember the cookie-banner choice. No analytics or advertising tags are included in this build. If non-essential tracking is added later, it should not be activated until the visitor has a valid choice where UK law requires it. See our Cookie Policy.
4. External and affiliate links
Our pages may link to government services, health services, publishers, comparison services and commercial partners. When you follow an external link, the destination site processes data under its own privacy policy. We do not control those third-party sites.
5. Legal bases
Where UK data protection law applies, processing may be based on legitimate interests for website security and basic operation, or on consent where consent is required for optional storage, tracking or marketing technologies. Email correspondence is processed to respond to your request and maintain necessary business records.
6. Sharing and transfers
Personal data may be handled by service providers that support hosting, security or email. If a provider processes data outside the UK, appropriate safeguards should be used where required by UK data protection law.
7. Retention
We keep information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including security, legal and accounting requirements where applicable.
8. Your rights
Depending on the circumstances, UK data protection law may give you rights of access, correction, erasure, restriction, objection and data portability, as well as the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
9. Changes
We may update this policy when the website, service providers or legal requirements change. The date above shows the current version.
