Privacy policy

Draft for review before launch. Fill in the details in square brackets.

This policy explains what personal information The Prep Feed collects and how we use it. The Prep Feed is run by [business name] of [business address], which is the data controller. [ICO registration number: ________]

What we collect

  • Account details: your name, email address and, if you give it, your station.
  • Subscription details: your membership level and payment history. Card payments are handled by Stripe; we never see or store your full card details.
  • Sign-in records: the time, IP address and browser type each time you sign in. We keep these for 30 days to keep accounts secure and spot shared logins.
  • Emails: messages you send us.

Why we use it

  • To provide your subscription, take payments and send you each day’s edition (to perform our contract with you).
  • To protect accounts and prevent login sharing (our legitimate interest in protecting the service).
  • To keep financial records (a legal obligation).
  • To send news about The Prep Feed, only if you’ve agreed. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Who we share it with

Only the providers we need to run the service: Stripe (payments), [hosting provider] (website hosting), and [email provider] (sending emails). They process data on our behalf under contract. We never sell your data.

How long we keep it

Account details for as long as you’re a member and up to 12 months after, sign-in records for 30 days, and payment records for 6 years for tax purposes.

Cookies

We only use cookies that are needed for the site to work: to keep you signed in and, during checkout, Stripe’s security cookies. We don’t use advertising or tracking cookies. Our fonts are hosted on our own site.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete your information, object to how we use it, or ask us to limit its use. Email hello@theprepfeed.com. If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
