What follows applies to debtshaper.com, where Debtshaper publishes Debtshaper. It covers what we collect, who else is involved, and the rights you hold.

What We Hold

When you read debtshaper.com, our host and any analytics provider we use may log technical details of the request — IP address, user agent, referring URL, pages and timestamps. Separately, you may choose to give us an email address, post a comment, or write to us, and that information is collected too.

• A specific note for readers interested in Debtshaper: we ask readers not to send us sensitive personal details, and we delete rather than retain anything of that kind that reaches us unprompted.

Age of Readers

This is not a children’s site. It is not directed to under-13s (or under-16s where that threshold applies), no data is knowingly collected from them, and any that arrives is deleted once identified.

Why We Process It

The data supports four things — keeping debtshaper.com online and secure, understanding readership patterns in aggregate, sending email people have asked for, and underpinning any advertising on the site.

Cookies

For anything cookie-related, our Cookie Policy is the document that applies.

Where advertising is served, third-party vendors including Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.

Retention Periods

Storage is time-limited and purpose-limited. Subscriber and comment data goes when you withdraw it; analytics data expires on schedule. The site is served over HTTPS, access to what we hold is restricted, and safeguards are kept proportionate to the data involved. No safeguard is perfect.

Email Preferences

Subscribing takes two steps: you submit an address, then confirm it from that address. All email includes an unsubscribe link and a postal address as required, and the list is never sold, rented, or shared for others’ marketing.

Your Options

Subject to your location, you may request access to your data, its correction or deletion, a portable copy, or restriction of its use, and you may opt out of sale or sharing for advertising. These entitlements flow from the UK/EU GDPR and from US state law including the CCPA/CPRA. Global Privacy Control signals are respected automatically. See our State Privacy Notice and Do Not Sell or Share.

Shared With

Providers in the chain include the host that serves debtshaper.com, any analytics tool we run, the mailing platform, and ad networks where advertising appears. Where those parties set their own purposes they are independent controllers, and you should read their notices as well as this one.
