Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 1 July 2026

Ciaran McCullough Web Services ("we", "our", or "us") operates ciaranmccullough.co.uk (the "Site"). We are committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and local privacy laws.

1. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for your personal information is:

  • Company Name:

    Ciaran McCullough Web Services

  • Email:

    ciaran.mccullough89@gmail.com

2. Information We Collect and Why

Because our website is strictly informational, we do not require you to create an account or submit payment details. We only process your personal data based on specific legal foundations:

  • Technical & Usage Data:

    • Legal Basis:

      Consent (for non-essential tracking) or Legitimate Interest (for essential site security and maintenance).

    IP address, browser type, operating system, and how you interact with our Site via cookies.

  • Communications Data:

    • Legal Basis:

      Explicit consent or performance of a contract to answer your inquiry.

    Your name and email address if you voluntarily contact us via a contact form or email link.

3. Cookie Management & Mixpanel Analytics

Our website groups tracking technologies to ensure site functionality, analyze traffic patterns, and measure marketing performance.

  • Essential Cookies:

    Loaded automatically to provide secure site operations and remember your privacy choices.

  • Analytics Tracking (Mixpanel):

    We use Mixpanel to gather information about how visitors navigate our pages. This allows us to improve website layout and content. Mixpanel is blocked by default. It will only execute if you grant explicit consent via our cookie banner. You can withdraw or adjust this consent at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in our footer.

4. Data Retention

We store personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including satisfying any legal, accounting, or statutory reporting requirements.

5. Third-Party Disclosures & Data Transfers

We do not sell your personal data. We share usage data with Mixpanel under a strict Data Processing Agreement (DPA). Because Mixpanel processes data globally, your information may be transferred outside the UK. We ensure a similar degree of protection by verifying that specific Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or International Data Transfer Agreements (IDTAs) approved by the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) are in place.

6. Your Rights Under UK GDPR

Under UK data protection laws, you possess the following rights regarding your data:

  • Right of Access:

    Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

  • Right to Rectification:

    Request correction of inaccurate data.

  • Right to Erasure:

    Request deletion of your data under certain conditions.

  • Right to Restrict or Object:

    Object to our processing or request a restriction on processing.

  • Right to Withdraw Consent:

    Revoke consent at any time where processing is based on consent (such as analytics).
