Privacy notice

This notice explains the intended handling of BioCharge Britain registration enquiries. Live collection remains disabled until the launch items below have been approved.

Who controls your data

The BioCharged Compost Company Ltd is the intended data controller for BioCharge Britain registration information. The company's published privacy contact route and registered office details must be added here before live collection.

What we collect

If registration is enabled, we collect the participant type you select, your name, email address, organisation (if provided), broad postcode area (if provided), and any message you choose to send. We do not ask for special-category data, and the website does not store your IP address.

Why we use it

We use these details to respond to your enquiry and assess or administer participation in BioCharge Britain. We will not use them for unrelated marketing unless a separate lawful basis and notice apply. The registration endpoint receives the submission over HTTPS; the website does not write participant data to project files when running in production.

Lawful basis

The proposed lawful basis for an initial registration enquiry is your consent, given by ticking the checkbox on the form. You may withdraw consent at any time using the controller's published privacy contact route. The final lawful basis must be confirmed by the controller before launch.

How long we keep it

The controller must approve and publish a specific retention period before launch. The endpoint owner must apply that period and securely delete or anonymise the record when it expires. This website does not create a second local copy.

Who receives it

Submissions will be sent only to the approved CRM or database endpoint named in the controller's internal processing records. The endpoint provider, hosting location, processors, international transfers (if any), and security controls must be documented and approved before the form is enabled.

Your rights

Subject to the applicable UK GDPR conditions, you may ask for access to, correction or deletion of your personal data, restriction or objection to processing, and data portability where it applies. You may withdraw consent without affecting earlier processing. You may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office. Add the controller's verified contact route and the approved retention period here before launch so these rights can be exercised in practice.

Launch status

Live registration must not be enabled until the controller has approved the contact route, lawful basis, retention period, endpoint and processors, security controls, international-transfer position, and rights-handling procedure. Until then, the server returns a configuration message and does not accept or store submissions.
