1. Data Controller
This website (wozviewthistl.com) is operated by WozViewThistl Atmospheric Media Ltd (Company No. SC819402), registered at 14 Observatory Road, Edinburgh, EH9 3HJ, United Kingdom. For privacy inquiries, contact [email protected].
2. Information Processed When Browsing
WozViewThistl is a static informational publication. We do not require account registration, sell personal profiles, or run third-party behavioral advertising networks. When your browser requests a page, standard web-hosting infrastructure temporarily records technical request metadata (truncated IP address, timestamp, requested URL, and user-agent string) strictly for security, abuse prevention, and operational reliability (legitimate interest under UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f)).
3. Observation Builder & Email Correspondence
The interactive field-inquiry formatter on Ask a Question runs entirely inside your local browser memory using client-side JavaScript. Text typed into that tool is never transmitted to our servers unless you voluntarily send an email to [email protected]. When you email us, we retain your message, email address, and any attached sky photographs solely to respond to your inquiry or, only with your explicit written permission, credit an observation.
4. Data Retention & Security
Routine server security logs rotate automatically within 30 days. Direct email correspondence is reviewed annually and deleted once no longer needed for editorial correspondence.
5. Your Rights
Under UK and European data protection laws, you have the right to request access to, rectification of, or erasure of any personal data you have sent us, as well as the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority (such as the UK Information Commissioner's Office). Contact [email protected] to exercise these rights.
