Taylor's Trailblazing Golf

Privacy Policy

Who is responsible for personal information and how to raise a concern.

This notice applies to Taylor’s Trailblazing Golf at taylorstrailblazinggolf.com. It covers information processed through the website and related enquiries, not the independent practices of an external retailer or other website.

1. Controller and contact

The controller is Karen Taylor, trading as Taylor’s Trailblazing Golf. Contact: karen@taylorstrailblazinggolf.com.

Correspondence address:
1 Brunton Park, Markinch, KY7 6EZ

2. Information and its source

Information you provide may include your name, email address, message, a page address and the details of a correction or business enquiry. Technical information generated when you visit can include an IP address, device and browser information, access times, requested pages and security or error logs. Consent tools may record your privacy choices. Only provide information needed for the enquiry.

3. Purposes and lawful bases

Website delivery, troubleshooting and proportionate security rely on the legitimate interests of operating a reliable website and preventing misuse. Responding to ordinary enquiries and investigating corrections rely on legitimate interests in managing correspondence and publishing accurate information. Where a person requests steps before a contract, processing may be necessary for those steps. Legal obligations and the establishment or defence of legal claims may require additional processing.

Optional marketing and device technologies that require consent are used only after the relevant permission is obtained. Consent can be withdrawn. The particular service and its purpose should be explained when the choice is offered. Information is not reused for an incompatible purpose without an appropriate basis and notice.

4. Services and recipients

Hostinger supplies website hosting. WPForms is used where an enabled contact form is displayed, and Complianz is used where the cookie controls are enabled. Email delivery and any optional measurement, advertising or newsletter services depend on the configuration described below.

Services used on this website

Hostinger provides website hosting. Email delivery must use the Golf mailbox and the mail services selected by the publisher. No newsletter is offered. Optional analytics and advertising remain disabled until separately configured and disclosed.

Providers may process information on the site’s behalf under appropriate agreements. External retailers, payment providers and affiliate networks may act as independent controllers when you use their services; consult their notices. Information may also be disclosed where necessary to meet a legal obligation or protect legal rights. The site does not sell enquiry information for money.

5. Cookies and external links

See the Cookie Policy for device storage, purposes and controls. Selecting an external or affiliate link can send technical information to the receiving service. Embedded services should not be activated before a required choice has been obtained. A link to an external site does not give us control over its practices.

6. Retention

Routine enquiries are kept for up to 24 months after the matter is resolved, unless a longer period is justified for a continuing issue, legal duty or claim. This is the publisher's chosen retention policy; it is not an automatic deletion feature.

Security logs follow the configured host or security-service schedule. Consent records are retained as needed to manage and evidence choices. Material editorial, legal or accounting records may need longer retention than routine correspondence. These periods should be reviewed and unnecessary information securely removed.

7. International processing

Some providers may process data outside the United Kingdom. Where a restricted transfer requires a safeguard, the relevant provider agreement and transfer mechanism must be in place before that service is used. Contact us for details of the safeguards applicable to your information.

8. Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection and data portability. You may object to direct marketing and withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal does not make earlier consent-based processing unlawful. Rights are not absolute; we may need enough information to confirm identity and the scope of a request.

Send requests or complaints to karen@taylorstrailblazinggolf.com. You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint.

9. Children and sensitive information

The publication is intended for adult readers making golf-equipment decisions, including adults buying junior equipment. Do not submit a child’s personal information unnecessarily. We do not ask for medical records, passwords or payment-card details through editorial enquiries.

10. Security and automated decisions

Reasonable measures should protect access to website and correspondence systems. No internet service can guarantee complete security. This website does not use personal information for solely automated decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects.

11. Changes

This notice is reviewed when the services, purposes or legal requirements change. Material changes should be brought to the attention of affected people where appropriate. Contact Karen Taylor for further information.
