Who is responsible
Pigeonnorthbiscuit Media Ltd, 52 Hanover Street, Edinburgh EH2 2DX, United Kingdom, company SC830385, is responsible for personal information handled for this website. Contact [email protected] with privacy questions or requests.
Reading the website
The pages do not include advertising trackers, analytics libraries, account registration or embedded third-party media. Images, styles and scripts are requested from the site’s own hosting location. Ordinary web requests necessarily make information such as an IP address, requested resource, request time and browser-related headers available to the hosting infrastructure.
Hosting systems may process technical access and security logs to deliver the website, diagnose faults and protect it from misuse. Where such personal data is processed, the purpose is operating and securing the site, supported by our legitimate interests in maintaining an accessible, reliable publication. Technical records should be retained only for as long as needed for those purposes, with longer preservation where necessary to investigate a security incident or comply with law.
The local message composer
Text entered into the contact tool remains in the current page’s memory. The tool has no message-submission endpoint, does not send entries to us and does not save drafts in localStorage. Reloading or leaving the page may discard the draft. Browser features or extensions outside this site may handle form information under their own settings.
Choosing Copy message asks your browser to place the composed text on your clipboard. Choosing Download text creates a file on your device. You control where that text goes next. Avoid including sensitive information in either a draft or an email.
If you email us
When you independently send an email, we receive the information you include, such as your name, email address, message and attachments, together with ordinary email metadata. We use it to address the enquiry, assess a correction or handle a privacy request. Our legitimate interest in responding to relevant correspondence is the usual basis; legal obligations may apply to particular requests.
We keep correspondence only while needed for its purpose and any relevant follow-up, dispute or legal obligation. Access should be limited to people and service providers who need it for that work. We do not sell your personal information or use editorial enquiries to enroll you in marketing.
Browser preferences
The preference controls on the Cookies page store a choice locally under pnb-cookie-preference. That value is not an advertising identifier and is not submitted by our page scripts. See Cookies in This Editorial Stack for values, persistence and deletion instructions.
Recipients and international handling
Hosting and email suppliers may process information as necessary to provide their services. Authorities or professional advisers may receive information where legally required or necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. Where personal data is transferred internationally, applicable data-protection requirements and appropriate safeguards must be observed. You may contact us for information relevant to a specific enquiry.
Your rights
Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your personal data, and object to processing based on legitimate interests. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting earlier lawful processing. These rights have legal limits, and we may need proportionate information to verify a request.
You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk, or another competent supervisory authority. We encourage you to contact us first so we can understand the concern.
Other sites and updates
Following an external reference takes you to a site with its own privacy practices. This notice does not govern that site. If our data handling changes, we will update this page and its effective date. The current site does not make automated decisions about readers with legal or similarly significant effects.
