Privacy Policy

Controller and contact

JTK Journal is the controller for personal data processed through this website. Contact contact@jtjaklaschka.co.uk for privacy questions or rights requests.

Information we collect

We may process technical data, usage data, contact messages, cookie preferences, affiliate click identifiers, referral data, and aggregated analytics information. We do not intentionally collect special category data.

How we use information

We use information to operate the site, protect security, respond to messages, understand which pages are useful, manage affiliate attribution, improve editorial coverage, and comply with legal obligations.

Lawful bases

Depending on the activity, we rely on legitimate interests, consent, contract steps, or legal obligation under UK GDPR and EU GDPR principles.

Cookies and analytics

The site may use cookies, pixels, local storage, server logs, and analytics tools. Non-essential cookies should be used only where appropriate consent has been obtained. Browser controls may limit cookies.

Affiliate tracking and third-party merchants

Affiliate links may send readers to merchants or affiliate networks that process click, referral, transaction, and commission data under their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party checkout, delivery, support, or privacy practices.

Sharing and selling

We may share limited data with hosting providers, analytics providers, security providers, email tools, professional advisers, and affiliate networks where needed. We do not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling a customer list.

International transfers

Some providers may process data outside the UK or EEA. Where required, safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or provider transfer mechanisms should apply.

Retention

We keep contact messages only as long as needed to respond and maintain records. Technical logs and analytics are retained for limited operational periods unless a longer period is required for security or legal reasons.

Your rights

Depending on location and circumstances, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection to legitimate-interest processing, or withdrawal of consent. You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office or your local EU supervisory authority.

Children and security

This site is not directed at children. We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information, but no website can guarantee absolute security.

Updates

We may update this policy when site features, providers, or legal requirements change. The latest version will be posted on this page.
