This privacy policy explains how the Nottingham Dog Results website collects, uses and protects information when you visit our pages. We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of every visitor and to being transparent about our data practices. By using this website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the terms set out below.
Information We Collect
We do not require registration, account creation or any form of personal identification to access the content on this website. We do not collect names, email addresses, postal addresses, telephone numbers or payment details through this site.
When you visit our pages, certain technical information may be collected automatically through standard web server processes. This includes your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time and date of access, and approximate geographic location derived from your IP address. This information is collected in aggregated, anonymised form and is used solely to understand how visitors interact with the site and to maintain its technical performance.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
This website uses cookies and similar technologies. A full description of the cookies we use, their purposes and how to manage them is available in our separate Cookie Policy page. In summary, we use strictly necessary cookies to ensure the website functions correctly, and analytics cookies to understand visitor behaviour in aggregate. We may also serve third-party cookies through advertising or analytics partners.
How We Use Information
The technical information collected through server logs and analytics tools is used for the following purposes: monitoring and maintaining the security and performance of the website, understanding aggregate visitor behaviour such as which pages are most visited and how long visitors spend on the site, improving the content and structure of the website based on usage patterns, and complying with legal obligations where applicable.
We do not use any collected information to identify individual visitors. We do not build personal profiles, and we do not sell, rent or trade any visitor data to third parties for marketing purposes.
Third-Party Services
This website may contain links to external websites, including bookmaker sites, official racing bodies such as the Greyhound Board of Great Britain and the British Greyhound Racing Fund, news outlets, academic publications and other third-party resources. These external sites operate under their own privacy policies, and we have no control over their data practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external site before providing personal information.
We may use third-party analytics services to help us understand website usage. These services may set their own cookies and collect data as described in our Cookie Policy. We may also display advertisements through third-party advertising networks, which may use cookies and similar technologies to serve relevant content based on your browsing activity across different websites.
Data Retention
Aggregated analytics data and server logs are retained for a period reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, typically no longer than 26 months. After this period, data is deleted or further anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with any individual browsing session.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the information processed through this website. These measures include the use of encrypted connections (HTTPS), regular software updates, and access controls on server infrastructure. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights
If you are located in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, you have certain rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. These include the right to access any personal data we hold about you, the right to request correction or deletion of that data, the right to restrict or object to processing, and the right to data portability where applicable. Because we do not collect or store personal data that identifies individual visitors, these rights are unlikely to be engaged in practice. If you believe we hold any personal data relating to you, you may exercise your rights by contacting us through the details provided below.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection. Details of how to contact the ICO are available at ico.org.uk.
