2. Information We Collect
We restrict data collection to what is strictly necessary to provide practical facilities guidance and respond to engineering queries:
- Direct Communications (Contact Form): When you send a message through our Contact page, we collect your full name, business email address, selected operational subject area, and message contents.
- Technical and Server Log Data: When you navigate our guides, our web servers log your anonymized IP address, browser user-agent string, referring URL, time of visit, and pages viewed to ensure network security and prevent denial-of-service attempts.
- Cookie and Consent State: We store a record of your cookie choices (accept, reject, or custom preferences) in local web storage on your device.
3. Lawful Basis for Processing
Under Article 6 of the UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:
- Legitimate Interests: To reply to professional queries you send us, maintain server stability, prevent cyber threats, and evaluate aggregated traffic to understand which stadium maintenance modules need revision.
- Consent: For non-essential performance or analytics cookies, which are only activated if you explicitly opt in via our bottom cookie banner or preference dialogue.
- Legal Obligation: If required by court order, law enforcement, or health and safety regulatory bodies investigating an operational venue incident.
4. Contact Form Inquiries & Data Handling
Messages submitted through our contact form are delivered to our secure operations desk mailbox ([email protected]). We do not feed your contact details into third-party marketing brokers or unsolicited sales funnels. Your data is used exclusively to evaluate and respond to your technical question.
5. Cookies and Analytics
We do not operate behavioral retargeting pixels or ad network tracking scripts. We utilize lightweight, privacy-focused operational cookies that help us understand whether readers spend time on our turf aeration guides versus our floodlight electrical checklists. For an exhaustive inventory of cookies, durations, and management methods, please review our dedicated Cookie Policy.
