Who operates the site
Oliver Reynolds operates this site as an individual in Great Britain. For questions about personal information, you can write to contact@petrolheadguide.site. This is also the contact point for requests concerning information about you.
Information involved in using the site
The site runs on WordPress and is hosted by Contabo. The server keeps technical logs. A visit to a website can involve technical information being sent between your device and the server; the particular fields recorded in this site's logs have not been specified. Technical logs may contain personal information where the information can identify or be linked to a person.
There are no public forms or comments on the site. Analytics and advertising are switched off. The site does not offer a newsletter. These points describe the site's stated features; they do not mean that a request for a page involves no technical data.
If you choose to email contact@petrolheadguide.site, your message and the contact information included with it will be received. Please consider whether you need to include personal information, particularly information about someone else, before sending a message. Email is a way to contact the operator, not a public posting feature.
Site administration and hosting
WordPress uses authentication cookies for administrator sign-in. These are associated with access to the administrative area, rather than a public comment or account feature for readers. The site is hosted by Contabo, which is involved in providing the hosting infrastructure through which the site is available.
Technical requests and server logs, administrator authentication, and messages sent by email are different kinds of activity. Whether information in any of them identifies you depends on the information involved. The absence of analytics or advertising does not remove the possibility that technical records contain personal information.
Your choices and rights
You do not need to send an email to read the site's informational articles. If you do write, you can limit the personal information you put in your message. Public forms, comments and a newsletter are not available, so there is no reader submission or subscription to manage through those features.
Depending on the circumstances and applicable data protection law, you may be able to request access to personal information about you, correction of inaccurate information, erasure, or restriction of its use. You may also have rights to object to certain processing or to receive certain information in a portable format. These rights have conditions and exceptions; making a request does not mean every requested action will necessarily apply.
To raise a privacy question or make a rights request, email contact@petrolheadguide.site and explain what you are asking about. Avoid sending more personal information than is needed to explain your request. You may also raise a concern with the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK data protection regulator. Contacting the operator first is not a condition for raising a concern with the regulator.
