Privacy policy

Last updated: 10 October 2026. Claire McDonald operates Gymnastics Explained from Scotland and is responsible for personal information handled through this website. For privacy questions or requests, email [email protected].

Information this site handles

This site does not currently provide a contact form, user account, newsletter, analytics tool or advertising service. If you email us, we receive your email address and the content and attachments you choose to send. The website host may process technical request data, such as an IP address, browser information and the time and page requested, to deliver and protect the site.

How information is used and kept

Email information is used to reply, handle corrections and permissions requests, and keep necessary records. Technical data is handled by the website hosting provider for site operation and security. We rely on legitimate interests to respond to enquiries and protect and improve the site, and on legal obligations where they apply. Messages are kept only as long as needed to deal with the request, with a record retained where reasonably necessary for accountability or legal obligations.

We do not knowingly ask children to send us personal information. Please do not email sensitive personal information or private information about a child.

Your choices and rights

You can ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, subject to applicable law. You can also object to or ask us to restrict processing where those rights apply. You may raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner's Office. Contact us by email to make a request.

External services and future changes

Links to other websites are governed by those sites' own privacy practices. If analytics or advertising, including Google AdSense, is added, this policy will be updated before those services are enabled to explain what data they use, the relevant providers, and the choices available to visitors. The hosting and email providers process information under their own service terms.
