Privacy Policy – Katanaspin
Start playingThis privacy notice explains how classicmotor.co.uk – an independent review and information portal – collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit this site. We are not Katanaspin itself; we run a separate editorial platform that writes about the operator. The operator has its own privacy policy governing what happens once you register with them directly.
Who controls your data
classicmotor.co.uk is the data controller for any information you provide to us through this website. You can reach our editorial team at [email protected] with questions about how we handle your data, or to exercise any of the rights described further down this page.
What information reaches us
Technical data – When you browse this site, standard web server logs capture your IP address, browser type, referring page, and pages visited. We use this to understand traffic patterns and improve the site's performance.
Cookies and analytics – We set cookies to remember your consent preferences and to track anonymous usage statistics through third-party analytics platforms (such as Google Analytics). These services may set their own cookies. For full detail on what cookies do and how to manage them, see our Cookie Policy.
Contact-form submissions – If you write to us via the contact page, we collect the email address and message content you provide. We use this solely to respond to your enquiry.
We do not collect payment details, account credentials, or identity documents – those belong to the operator's own systems once you register with Katanaspin directly, and fall under their privacy policy, not ours.
Why we process your data
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Operating the website and responding to enquiries | Legitimate interest |
| Analytics and improving user experience | Consent (via cookie banner) |
| Complying with legal obligations | Legal obligation |
Who else sees your information
We share data with a small number of third parties, strictly for the purposes described:
- Hosting provider – server infrastructure to keep the site online.
- Analytics services – aggregated, anonymised usage data to understand visitor behaviour.
- Advertising partners – if you consent to marketing cookies, anonymised identifiers may be shared to serve relevant ads.
We never sell your personal information to anyone. Where a processor handles data on our behalf (hosting, email delivery), they are contractually bound to protect it and use it only as instructed.
Your rights under UK GDPR
You have the following rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018:
- Access – request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification – ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Erasure – request deletion of your data where we no longer have a lawful basis to keep it.
- Restriction – ask us to limit processing in certain circumstances.
- Portability – receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Objection – object to processing based on legitimate interest or for direct marketing.
- Withdraw consent – where processing relies on consent (such as analytics cookies), you can withdraw it at any time via your browser settings or our cookie-consent tool.
To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected] with your request. We will respond within one month. If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
How long we keep your data
Server logs and analytics data are retained for up to 26 months, then automatically purged. Contact-form submissions are kept for two years after the last correspondence, unless you request earlier deletion. Cookie consent records are stored for 12 months, after which the banner will reappear.
Protection of minors
This site is intended for visitors aged 18 and over (18+). We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under that age. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a minor has provided us with personal data, contact [email protected] and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to this notice
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, our practices, or the services we use. When we do, we will revise the date below and post the updated notice on this page. Significant changes will be highlighted at the top of the document for a reasonable period.
