Privacy Policy
Life in the UK Prep is committed to respecting your privacy. This page explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you.
This policy applies to the lifeintheukprep.co.uk website and any services that link to it. We review our practices regularly and may update this notice from time to time.
Personal data we collect
- We do not require accounts or request personal identifiers to access study materials or quizzes.
- If you contact us through the form or by email, we process your name, email address, and the details you share so we can respond.
- Our hosting provider records standard server logs (for example IP address, browser type, date/time of access) to keep the site secure and diagnose technical issues. These logs are routinely purged.
Analytics and measurement
We use privacy-friendly analytics to understand which pages are most useful and to detect errors. Analytics reports rely on aggregated, pseudonymised metrics and do not identify individual visitors. We use this information solely to improve content and monitor site performance.
Cookies and similar technologies
Essential cookies help us keep the site running, such as remembering quiz progress during a session. We may also use optional cookies to analyse traffic and deliver advertising. You can learn more about each category and manage your preferences in our Cookie Policy.
Your browser provides controls to delete or block cookies. Restricting cookies may impact certain interactive features, but the learning materials will remain accessible.
Advertising and affiliate links
Advertising partners such as Google AdSense may set cookies or use similar technologies to deliver relevant adverts and measure performance. These partners operate under their own privacy policies and rely on aggregated usage data, not on information that directly identifies you.
You can manage personalised advertising settings at Google Ad Settings and through industry opt-out tools like the Digital Advertising Alliance. We do not sell your personal information.
Legal basis, sharing, and retention
We process personal data to pursue our legitimate interest in running a secure educational website and responding to enquiries. We do not share visitor data with third parties except where required to provide core services (such as web hosting, analytics, or advertising networks) or to meet legal obligations.
Contact messages and server logs are retained only as long as necessary to resolve the query, maintain accurate records, or comply with legal requirements. Aggregated analytics statistics may be stored for longer to track site performance trends.
Your rights
If you are located in the UK or EU, you have rights under data protection law, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal data. You can also object to certain processing or request data portability where applicable.
To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling requests.
Keeping your data safe
We host the site with reputable providers, use encrypted connections (HTTPS), and keep software up to date to help prevent unauthorised access. Access to systems that store contact messages is limited to authorised personnel with a genuine business need.
If you discover a potential security issue, please let us know immediately via the contact page so we can investigate.
Contacting us
If you have any questions about this policy or your personal data, please email contact@lifeintheukprep.co.uk or send a message through the contact form. We aim to respond within five working days.
