SailFun collects as little about you as it can. There are no adverts, no tracking cookies and no Google Analytics.
Visitor statistics
We count visits with Umami, which we run on our own server rather than using a third-party service. It sets no cookies and does not store your IP address. It records the page you viewed, the site that sent you, your browser, device type and country, so we can see which pages are useful. It cannot identify you, and the data is deleted after 24 months.
Cookies
Reading SailFun sets no cookies of ours. Two kinds of cookie can still appear:
- Security cookies from Cloudflare, which protects the site from attacks and spam. They tell people apart from bots and hold nothing that identifies you.
- Login cookies, for the people who edit the site. Visitors never get these.
Both are strictly necessary, so we don’t ask for consent and there is no cookie banner.
If you contact us
When you use the contact form we receive your name, email address and message. We use them only to reply and, if you sent an event, to list it. We don’t add you to a mailing list or pass your details to anyone. We delete messages once they are dealt with.
Event listings and links
The events on SailFun are managed in EventKiln, and their pictures and club logos load from EventKiln’s servers. That shares your IP address with EventKiln, as any image request does.
Entering an event takes you to the host club’s own website, and links to other sites do the same. Their privacy policies apply once you are there.
Where the site runs
SailFun is hosted by Fullworks on servers in Germany, behind Cloudflare. Like any web server, ours keeps short-lived logs of requests, including IP addresses, to keep the site running and secure.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask what we hold about you, and ask us to correct or delete it. Use the contact form, or write to SailFun, 14 Lovelace Drive, Woking, Surrey GU22 8QU. If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
