Privacy Policy
Last Updated: May 2026
At OlympSpinHub, your privacy is treated with the same reverence that the ancients reserved for the gods. We gather only what is strictly necessary to keep this platform running safely. No advertising. No profiling. No hidden agendas. What follows is a plain account of how we operate.
1. Who We Are
OlympSpinHub operates at olympspinhub.com and serves as the data controller for all personal data processed through this website. Our obligations are governed by the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
For all data protection and privacy enquiries, write to us at privacy@olympspinhub.com. We aim to reply within two working days.
2. What Data We Collect
The scope of data collection at OlympSpinHub is deliberately narrow. Below is a transparent, exhaustive account of every category of data that passes through our systems.
Server logs
Each request to olympspinhub.com generates a standard server log entry. This record includes your IP address, the browser and operating system you are using, the specific page requested, the referring URL where applicable, and the date and time of access. We use these logs exclusively to maintain server stability, detect abuse, and respond to security incidents. Logs are held for 30 days and then permanently deleted without manual intervention.
Email correspondence
Should you choose to contact us by email, we will retain your address and the substance of your message for up to 90 days — the period reasonably required to handle correspondence and any follow-up. We will not subscribe you to any list, pass your address to any partner, or retain the exchange beyond that window.
What we do NOT collect
- Account credentials, usernames, or passwords — OlympSpinHub has no registration system
- Names, home addresses, or telephone numbers
- Financial data of any description — the platform is entirely free with no transactions
- Advertising identifiers, device fingerprints, or behavioural tracking data
- Social network identifiers or data gathered from other websites
- Any long-lived identifier that could link sessions across visits
Cloudflare analytics
We make use of Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand broad patterns of site usage — which pages attract the most visits, the general geographic spread of our audience, and overall traffic volumes. Cloudflare Web Analytics operates without cookies and without any mechanism to identify or track individual visitors across sessions.
3. Legal Basis for Processing (UK GDPR Article 6)
UK GDPR requires us to identify a lawful basis for every category of personal data we process. Our bases are as follows:
- Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)): Server log data is processed to protect the website against attack, prevent misuse, and ensure reliable performance for all visitors. We have conducted a balancing test and concluded that this processing does not disproportionately interfere with the rights of individuals, given the technical nature of the data and the brief retention window.
- Consent (Article 6(1)(a)): By choosing to send us an email, you provide express consent for us to process your contact details and message content for the purpose of responding to your communication.
4. Cookies
The only cookies present on olympspinhub.com are those placed by Cloudflare, our CDN and security infrastructure provider. These are classified as strictly necessary under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) because they are essential to delivering a secure, functional website.
We operate no advertising technology, no behavioural analytics platform, and no cross-site tracking. Because we deploy only strictly necessary cookies, PECR does not require us to display a consent banner — and we do not do so.
For a detailed breakdown of each cookie, see our Cookie Policy.
5. Third-Party Services
Cloudflare
Every request to olympspinhub.com travels through Cloudflare's global network before reaching our origin servers. This arrangement provides DDoS mitigation, bot management, and performance improvements for visitors worldwide. In the course of providing these services, Cloudflare processes request metadata (including IP addresses) and may set the security cookies documented in our Cookie Policy. Cloudflare's full privacy notice is at cloudflare.com/privacy. International data transfers are covered by Standard Contractual Clauses as required under UK GDPR Article 46.
Google Fonts
To render our chosen typefaces, OlympSpinHub requests font files from Google Fonts (served from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). Each such request transmits your IP address to Google's servers — this is a network-level data transfer rather than a cookie, but it is a transfer nonetheless. Google's privacy practices are described at policies.google.com/privacy. If you prefer to prevent this transfer, browser extensions such as uBlock Origin can be configured to block requests to Google Fonts domains.
6. Data Sharing
OlympSpinHub does not sell, license, rent, or exchange personal data with any commercial third party. Full stop.
The only scenarios in which data may be disclosed to external parties are:
- Hosting infrastructure: Server logs are stored on our hosting provider's servers as a technical necessity of operating a website.
- Cloudflare: As described in Section 5, Cloudflare processes request data as an integral part of delivering the site securely.
- Legal compulsion: If a court, regulator, or law enforcement agency issues a binding legal demand for data under UK law, we will comply. Where the law permits, we will inform the affected individual of any such demand before disclosure.
7. Your Rights Under UK GDPR
The UK GDPR grants you meaningful control over your personal data. Your rights in relation to information held by OlympSpinHub are as follows:
- Access: You may request a full copy of any personal data we hold that relates to you.
- Rectification: If data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may ask us to correct it.
- Erasure: Where we have no overriding legal obligation or legitimate reason to retain it, you may request that we delete your personal data.
- Restriction: In certain circumstances — for example, while a dispute is under investigation — you may ask us to pause processing of your data without deletion.
- Portability: You may receive data you have actively provided to us in a structured, machine-readable format suitable for transfer to another controller.
- Objection: You may object to any processing we conduct under the legitimate interests basis. We will stop that processing unless we can demonstrate that our reasons are compelling enough to override your objection.
Submit any rights request to privacy@olympspinhub.com. We will send a written acknowledgement within five working days and deliver a complete response within 30 calendar days. Exercising your rights is free of charge.
8. Children’s Privacy
This platform is designed for and restricted to adults aged 18 and over in the United Kingdom. We take no deliberate steps to collect data from minors, and our content, language, and responsible messaging are all calibrated for an adult audience.
If you have reason to believe that someone under 18 has submitted personal data to us — whether by email or any other means — please report this to privacy@olympspinhub.com without delay. We will investigate and, where confirmed, delete the relevant data as a matter of urgency.
9. Data Security
Protecting the limited personal data we hold is an operational priority. The measures in place include:
- All communications between your browser and olympspinhub.com are encrypted via HTTPS using TLS 1.2 as a minimum standard.
- Access to server infrastructure and log files is restricted to named, authorised administrators.
- Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall and DDoS mitigation services provide a defensive perimeter against common attack vectors.
- As a fully free platform with no payment mechanism, we hold no financial data whatsoever.
We acknowledge that no digital security measure is infallible. We apply commercially reasonable protections, but we cannot warrant absolute security over all data transmitted across the internet.
10. Data Retention
Data is held no longer than required for its original purpose. Our retention schedule is as follows:
| Data Type | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Server logs (IP address, browser, pages, timestamp) | 30 days, then automatically deleted |
| Email correspondence | 90 days from last reply |
| Cloudflare security cookies | Session to 1 year (see Cookie Policy for details) |
| Aggregated anonymised analytics (Cloudflare) | 13 months |
11. Complaints to the ICO
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK’s supervisory authority for data protection:
- Website: ico.org.uk
- Telephone: 0303 123 1113
- Address: Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF
We would strongly prefer to address any concerns directly and informally before matters reach the ICO. Please contact privacy@olympspinhub.com first and give us the opportunity to put things right.
12. Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy will be revised whenever our practices change, when relevant legislation is updated, or when we introduce new services. Significant revisions will be reflected in an updated date at the head of this document. We recommend checking this page from time to time, particularly if you are a regular visitor.
Continuing to use OlympSpinHub following any revision to this policy indicates your acceptance of the updated terms. If you disagree with any change, your recourse is to discontinue use of the website.
