Privacy, said plainly.
Opeluxenoweb is a small journal. We do not want a dossier on you. This policy explains the little we do hold, why, and how to ask for it to be changed or deleted.
Who is responsible
The controller is Opeluxenoweb, 1 Linton Ct, Glenrothes KY6 1JF, UK. Email [email protected]. Telephone +44 7457 991876. We are not a large organisation and we do not appoint a statutory data protection officer. Privacy questions come to the same desk as everything else.
What we collect
If you email or telephone us, we receive whatever you choose to send: your name, email address, phone number, and the contents of the message. Please do not send National Insurance numbers, account numbers, or copies of pension statements. If you do, we will delete them rather than use them.
The contact form on this website does not submit data to our server. It opens your email application. Your email provider then handles delivery. We receive the message only if you send it.
We store a cookie preference in your browser under the key opeluxenoweb_consent. It records whether you accepted or rejected non-essential cookies, and the time you chose. We do not set analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party tracking pixels.
Server logs on the host that delivers these pages may briefly hold IP addresses and the usual technical details of a request. We use that only to keep the site running and to investigate abuse. We do not combine it with a marketing profile.
Why, and the lawful basis
We correspond with you on the basis of legitimate interests: answering a question you asked, correcting an error, or keeping a record of a complaint. If we ever wanted to send a newsletter, we would ask for consent first. We do not run one now.
The consent record for cookies is stored so we can respect your choice. That storage is either strictly necessary for the preference itself, or consent where a non-essential use is involved. Today there is no non-essential cookie beyond that record.
How long we keep it
Correspondence is kept only as long as we need it to answer you, deal with a follow-up, or show what we said if a complaint arises. We aim to delete routine mail within 24 months. If the law requires a longer hold, we keep it only for that reason.
Who else sees it
We do not sell personal information. Email travels through your provider and ours. Our site is hosted so that pages can be served to you; the host may process technical logs as a processor or independent controller of its own systems. We do not transfer your correspondence outside the United Kingdom on purpose. Email routing is not always geographically tidy, which is another reason not to send sensitive financial documents to a blog.
Your rights
- Access to the personal information we hold about you.
- Correction if it is wrong.
- Erasure, where the law allows it.
- Restriction or objection to certain uses.
- Portability of information you provided, where the processing is based on consent or a contract and is carried out by automated means. Our correspondence is unlikely to sit in that category, but you may ask.
- Complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We would like the chance to put things right first.
Children
The journal is written for adults planning work and retirement. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

Ask about your data
Write to [email protected] with the subject “Privacy” or call +44 7457 991876 on a weekday. We may need to confirm you are the person the message is about.
Cookies on this site
One local preference. No advertising network. Rejecting non-essential cookies leaves the journal readable. The pages do not depend on a tracker to load.
