Privacy Policy
1. Identity of the Data Controller
Albion Trunnion (“we”, “us”, or “our”), operating the web portal albiontrunnion.com from Castlemead, Lower Castle Street, Bristol, BS1 3AG, United Kingdom, acts as the Data Controller for any personal data collected through this website in accordance with the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Because albiontrunnion.com is designed as an open-access editorial comparator that does not require user registration or financial transactions, we practice strict data minimization.
2. Categories of Data We Collect
We only process limited information in the following contexts:
- Voluntary Editorial Correspondence: When you submit a message via our contact form or email contact@albiontrunnion.com, we collect your name or studio identifier, return email address, inquiry category, and message content solely to respond to your request.
- Server Diagnostic Logs: Our web server automatically records standard HTTP request metadata — including truncated IP addresses, browser user-agent strings, referring URLs, and request timestamps — to defend against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) traffic and diagnose broken links.
- Client-Side Consent & Filter State: Your browser stores your Cookie Consent Mode choices and optional genre filter preferences in local browser storage (`localStorage`), as detailed in our Cookie Policy.
3. Lawful Basis for Processing (Article 6 UK GDPR)
Under Article 6(1) of the UK GDPR, we rely on the following lawful bases:
- Consent — Article 6(1)(a): For optional analytics or functional preference storage enabled through our Cookie Consent banner. You may withdraw or modify your consent at any time using the “Cookie Preferences” button in the website footer.
- Legitimate Interests — Article 6(1)(f): For responding to inquiries you initiate through our Bristol desk and maintaining the operational security and integrity of our web server.
- Legal Obligation — Article 6(1)(c): Where necessary to comply with applicable UK statutory requirements or lawful requests from regulatory authorities.
4. Data Retention and Security Safeguards
Editorial correspondence received via email or contact inquiry is retained for no longer than twelve (12) months following the resolution of the thread, after which it is permanently purged. Automated server access logs are rotated and deleted within thirty (30) days.
All traffic between your browser and albiontrunnion.com is encrypted via Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3), and access to administrative mail boxes is restricted through hardware multi-factor authentication.
5. Third-Party Links and External Game Hosts
Clicking “Play Now” on any of the nine cataloged titles opens the external game publisher’s website in a new browser tab. We do not transmit any personal data to external publishers when you follow these links, though the destination platform will process your IP address and device headers under its own privacy notice.
6. Your Rights Under UK GDPR
As a UK or European resident, you hold statutory rights regarding your personal data:
- The right of access to any personal data we hold about you (Subject Access Request);
- The right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete details;
- The right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) of your correspondence;
- The right to restrict or object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- The right to lodge a formal complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you believe your data protection rights have been infringed.
