Privacy & Cookie Notice

This notice explains how personal data is handled when you use rorystandley.com.

Effective date: 31 August 2026

Who is responsible for your data

Rory Standley is the data controller for personal data collected through this website. To ask a privacy question or exercise a data right, use the contact form and make clear that your message concerns privacy.

Contact form

When you send a message, the form collects your name, email address, message, and IP address. The IP address is used with the bot check and is included with the submitted enquiry to help prevent spam and abuse.

This information is used to respond to your enquiry, protect the form and website from misuse, and maintain the security of the service. The lawful basis is Rory Standley's legitimate interests in responding to enquiries and keeping the website secure. You do not have to use the form; however, the information marked as required is needed to respond through it.

Service providers and international transfers

Cloudflare provides website hosting and Turnstile bot protection. Resend delivers contact-form emails. These providers process personal data only to provide their services. Their services may process data in the United States and other countries outside the UK. Where a restricted transfer applies, appropriate safeguards, such as contractual transfer safeguards, are used as required by applicable data-protection law. You can ask for further information about those safeguards through the contact form.

Retention

Contact-form messages and the information in them are retained for up to 24 months after the last correspondence, unless a longer period is necessary to deal with a legal claim, security incident, or legal obligation. They are then deleted or anonymised.

Cookies and similar technologies

This website does not use analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies, and it does not use browser storage for those purposes. It does not use a cookie-consent banner because it does not set non-essential cookies.

Cloudflare and Turnstile may set strictly necessary security cookies, such as __cf_bm or cf_clearance, when needed to protect the website and contact form from bots, fraud, and abuse. These cookies support security and the service you request, rather than analytics or advertising. They are disclosed here for transparency; consent is not requested for strictly necessary cookies.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict the use of, or receive a copy of your personal data. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interests. To exercise a right, use the contact form and include enough information to identify the relevant enquiry. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
