UK GDPR Compliance
This page explains how Bike and Car Styling Protector complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), which governs the protection of personal data in the United Kingdom.
Scope and Applicability
Although Bike and Car Styling Protector is an informational blog with no user registration system or database storing personal information, we may collect limited personal data through automated means such as web analytics, cookies, and server logs. This data is collected solely for website functionality and performance monitoring, and we process it in full compliance with the UK GDPR.
Your Rights Under UK GDPR
Under the UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Right of access – You may request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and receive a copy of it.
- Right to rectification – You may request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
- Right to erasure – You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
- Right to restriction of processing – You may request we limit how we use your data under certain conditions.
- Right to data portability – You may request your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
- Right to object – You may object to our processing of your data based on legitimate interests, including profiling.
How We Comply
We do not collect personal data for marketing, profiling, or commercial purposes. Any data collected via analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) is aggregated and anonymised where possible. We use strictly necessary and performance cookies only, with user consent obtained via our cookie banner. We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling.
Data We Process
The only personal data we may process includes:
- IP addresses (anonymised in analytics tools)
- Browser type and device information
- Pages visited and time spent on site
- Cookie identifiers (for session and preference management)
All data is processed in accordance with the principles of data minimisation and purpose limitation.
Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of personal data is based on legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) of the UK GDPR. Our legitimate interests include ensuring website functionality, improving user experience, and maintaining site security. We balance these interests against your rights and freedoms, and we do not process data where your interests override ours.
