Privacy Policy

What We Collect

Brits in Argentina is a static editorial website. There is nowhere on the site to register an account, submit a form, subscribe to a newsletter, or leave a comment — which means there is nowhere for us to collect your name, email, phone number, or any other personal identifier in the first place.

We use a first-party, same-origin analytics endpoint to understand which articles are useful and whether readers follow key links. A page-view record can include the page path and query string, page title, full referring URL or UTM source, broad device type, browser language and a random session identifier kept in your browser's session storage. Link events can include the clicked link's text and destination URL. The identifier expires with the browser session. We do not send names, email addresses, advertising identifiers or a persistent user ID, and we do not use Google Analytics.

Outbound Links

Our articles link to restaurants, schools, clinics, parks, government agencies, and professional services. Some of those outbound links include UTM attribution parameters (for example ?utm_source=britsinargentina) so the destination publication can see which of their traffic came from our editorial recommendations.

UTM parameters identify this website as the referral source, not you as an individual. They contain no name, email, IP address, browser fingerprint, or any identifier we have created for you. Once you click through to an external site, that site's privacy policy takes over and we have no control over what happens next.

Cookies

This site sets no visitor tracking, advertising or third-party analytics cookies. It uses browser session storage for the random analytics session identifier described above. Session storage is cleared when the browser session ends. External sites you choose to visit may set cookies under their own privacy policies.

Your Rights Under UK GDPR

UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 give you specific rights over personal data that organisations hold about you. Because we hold essentially no personal data, the practical scope is narrow, but we list them in full so you know where you stand:

• Right of Access — you can ask what personal data we hold about you and receive a copy of it.
• Right to Rectification — you can ask us to correct any personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete.
• Right to Erasure — you can ask us to delete personal data we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions.
• Right to Restrict Processing — you can ask us to stop actively using your data while a dispute is resolved.
• Right to Data Portability — you can ask for your data in a machine-readable format you can take elsewhere.
• Right to Object — you can object to processing based on legitimate interests, including direct marketing.

If you believe your rights have not been respected, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Data Retention

Aggregate page-view and link-event records are forwarded to Liberty Design Studio's portfolio observability service for site-quality reporting. Hosting providers may also keep limited access logs for security and abuse prevention. We do not build individual profiles or sell these records. You can ask about current retention or request deletion through the contact route below.
