Privacy notice

Ask My Town is run by [organisation name and address], which is responsible for your personal information under UK GDPR.

What we collect

You can read the site without giving us anything. If you send us a question, a correction or a listing request, we keep what you write and, if you give it, your email address.

Why

We use your email address only to reply to you about what you sent. We don't add it to mailing lists or share it.

How long we keep it

We delete your email address 90 days after we've dealt with your message.

Page views

We count how many times each question page is viewed each day, to show what people are asking most. We store only the daily total for each page, nothing about who viewed it.

Searches

When a search finds nothing, or includes words we don't recognise, we keep the words searched for (with anything that looks like an email address or phone number removed) and a count of how often they were searched, so we can improve the site. We don't keep anything about who searched. These records are deleted after 180 days.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of your information, or ask us to correct or delete it, by emailing [contact email address]. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
