Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 11/02/2025

We know, reading a Privacy Policy might not be the most exciting thing you’ll do today, but we’ve added a dash of wit to keep you engaged. If you continue to use RMPFriends.co.uk, you’re agreeing to the fun (and the data practices) below.

1. Introduction

  1. Scope
    This Privacy Policy covers how we collect and handle your information when you visit our site or use our services. By accessing or using our website, you consent to these practices. If you disagree, you might want to spend your day reading something else (like a good novel).

  2. Key Principles

    • We collect only what we need (no snooping in your diary).
    • We protect your data as best we can (think guard dogs, but digital).
    • We comply with relevant laws (because no one wants to be on the wrong side of those).
    • We stay transparent so you can understand how we use your info.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Forms and Submissions

  • Which Forms Collect Personal Data?
    Whenever you submit a form on our site, we capture essential details like:

    • IP Address (to keep out spam-bots),
    • Email Address,
    • Other personal data you provide in the form fields (e.g., name, phone number).

  • Why We Collect This Data
    We do this to respond to your questions or requests and make sure our site is only populated by real humans. We’ll never use your data to clutter your inbox with spammy messages about cat memes (unless that’s your thing).

2.2 Usage Data

We automatically collect non-personal information whenever you wander through our pages. This includes:

  • IP address
  • Browser type
  • Pages visited
  • Timestamps

We use this data to optimize your browsing experience—like rearranging furniture so you don’t stub your toe.

2.3 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to:

  • Remember your preferences (like whether you like light mode or dark mode),
  • Understand how you interact with our content,
  • Prevent you from having to enter the same data over and over again.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but you might miss out on some site features (no one likes half-baked cookies).

3. How We Use and Share Your Data

  1. Providing and Improving Services
    Your data helps us keep the site running smoothly and figure out which features need a facelift.

  2. Spam Protection
    We rely on third-party services to block pesky spam. Think of them like bouncers at a club ensuring only genuine guests get in.

  3. Public Display
    Certain comments or testimonials might go live for the world to see, but only if you’re cool with it (and it’s clearly stated).

  4. Disclosure

    • We may share data with our team or contractors to help us serve you better.
    • We might have to share data if required by law or when life (and lawyers) demand it.

4. Data Retention

  • Form Submissions
    We hang onto form entries (plus IP addresses) for 90 days. After that, we show them the digital exit door—unless we need to keep something for legal reasons.

  • Usage Data
    We keep this around just long enough to spot trends and improve your experience, or as required by law—whichever comes first.

5. Third-Party Services and Plugins

We use a handful of outside tools. They have their own privacy policies, which are sometimes even drier than ours. We encourage you to read them anyway if you’re up for a deep dive.

5.1 Spam Protection Services
5.2 Email Marketing and Subscriber List Management
5.3 Data Storage and Workflow Integrations
5.4 Image Optimization (Smush)
  • Sends images to WPMU DEV servers for optimization, possibly transferring EXIF data (either stripped or returned).
  • Uses the Stackpath CDN, storing visitor data (like IPs, user-agent, etc.) for up to 7 days. Stackpath Policy
  • Uses Drip for sending informational emails to site admins (admin email only). Drip Policy
5.5 Media Embeds

YouTube

  • If you’re logged into YouTube, Google knows you watched that cat video through our site. Privacy Policy

Vimeo

  • May collect IP addresses and data on which pages you visited. Privacy Policy

Google Web Fonts

  • Loads fonts from Google, which sees your IP address. Policy

SoundCloud

  • If you’re logged in, SoundCloud knows you listened to a track on our pages. Privacy Policy

6. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

If you’re in the EEA, we only process your data if:

  1. You’ve given consent,
  2. It’s necessary for a contract,
  3. It’s in our legitimate interests (like improving the site),
  4. We’re fulfilling a legal obligation.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live (EU, California, etc.), you might:

  • Access, correct, or delete your data,
  • Restrict or object to processing,
  • Request data portability,
  • Withdraw consent (you can change your mind—no judgment).

Hit us up in Section 10 for any of these requests.

8. Children’s Privacy

We don’t intentionally collect data from anyone under 16. If you’re a parent or guardian and believe your child has shared personal info with us, please let us know so we can remove it.

9. Data Security

We take security seriously and use reasonable measures to protect your info. But remember, even the best fortress has a weak spot. If a breach occurs, we’ll do our best to let you know right away and fix it fast.

10. Contact Us

Have questions about this policy or how we’re handling your data? Reach out:

We promise to respond promptly and politely (and maybe with a joke if appropriate).

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

If we need to update this Policy (e.g., because of new laws or newly discovered existential questions), we’ll revise the “Last Updated” date. By continuing to hang out on our site after changes go live, you accept the updated version—kind of like renewing a subscription, but for data privacy.

Disclaimer: This policy is meant to give you a friendly rundown of how we handle your info. For hardcore legal compliance (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), please consult your lawyer. We’re not responsible if you take this as law school material.
