This policy explains what information Just Theme Parks collects, why, and what you can do about it. It is written to be read rather than to be impressive.
Who we are
Just Theme Parks is an independent website covering theme park news, guides and reviews, published from the United Kingdom. Our website address is https://justthemeparks.com.
For any question about this policy or your data, contact us via the contact page.
The short version
We do not run advertising. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook pixels or any third-party tracking scripts. We do not set marketing or analytics cookies, and we do not sell or share your data with anyone.
The only personal information we hold is what you actively give us — by leaving a comment or emailing us.
Comments
When you leave a comment we collect the name, email address and website you enter in the form, together with your IP address and browser user-agent string. This is standard WordPress behaviour and helps with spam detection.
Your email address is never published and never shared. An anonymised string created from it (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you have a profile picture. Gravatar’s privacy policy is available at automattic.com/privacy. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside it.
Lawful basis: legitimate interest in running a moderated discussion. You are not obliged to comment.
Cookies
We set no advertising or analytics cookies.
If you leave a comment you may opt in to saving your name, email and website in cookies on your own device, purely so you do not have to type them again. These last one year and you can decline them. If you have an account and log in, WordPress sets temporary cookies to run the login session.
Embedded video
Articles often include videos from our YouTube channel. We deliberately embed these through youtube-nocookie.com, so YouTube does not set advertising cookies simply because you loaded the page.
If you press play on a video, YouTube will then collect data as though you had visited YouTube directly, in line with Google’s privacy policy. That is your choice to make.
Server logs and security
Our host and our security plugin keep standard access logs, including IP addresses, for the purposes of running the site and blocking malicious traffic. These are not used to build any profile of you and are retained only as long as needed for security.
How long we keep things
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so that follow-up replies can be recognised and approved automatically rather than held in a queue. You can ask us to delete yours at any time.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to erase it. Contact us and we will action it. Comment data is straightforward for us to export or delete on request.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
Affiliate links and advertising
We currently carry no advertising and no affiliate links. Should that change, this policy will be updated first, any affiliate link will be clearly disclosed, and if advertising requires consent for cookies we will ask for it before any are set.
Changes to this policy
Any material change will be reflected here with a revised date at the top.
