Welcome to Stack Surge! We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal information is handled in a safe and responsible manner. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website.

Information Collection and Use

Stack Surge does not require users to sign up or provide any personal information to access our content. However, we do collect email addresses for our newsletter, which users can choose to subscribe to. Subscribers can opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe link provided in each email.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to gather anonymous data about how visitors interact with our website. This helps us understand which pages are most popular, how long visitors stay on our site, and how they navigate through it. The information collected includes, but is not limited to:

• IP address (anonymized)
• Browser type
• Device type
• Operating system
• Referring/exit pages
• Date and time of visit

The data collected through Google Analytics is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it cannot be used to identify individual users. This information helps us improve our website and provide a better user experience.

Cookies

We use CookieScript to manage cookie consent on our website. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help analyze web traffic and remember user preferences. You can control the use of cookies through the CookieScript consent banner or your browser settings.

Compliance with UK Regulations

Stack Surge complies with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. We ensure that any data collected through Google Analytics and CookieScript is handled in accordance with these regulations.

Your Rights

Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access the data we hold about you
• Request correction of any inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Object to the processing of your data
• Request restriction of processing your data

Since we do not collect personal data beyond email addresses for the newsletter, these rights primarily apply to any interaction data handled by Google Analytics and CookieScript. For more information on how Google handles data, please refer to the Google Privacy Policy.
