Privacy policy
This policy explains what personal information Burnham Beeches Lodge collects through this website, how we use it, and your rights. We are committed to handling your data responsibly and in line with UK data protection law.
Information we collect
- Contact enquiries. When you use our contact form we collect your name, email address and message, so the lodge secretary can reply.
- Member accounts. If you are a member, we hold your name, email address and (optionally) a phone number for the members’ area and directory.
- Basic technical logs. Like most websites, our server may briefly record request information (such as the page requested and an IP address) to keep the site secure and diagnose errors.
Cookies
We use a single, strictly necessary cookie to keep you signed in to the members’ area while you are logged in. We do not use advertising, analytics or tracking cookies. Because the cookie is essential to the service, it does not require consent, but you can clear it at any time through your browser.
How we use your information
We use your information only to respond to enquiries, to run the members’ area, and to keep the website secure. We do not sell your data or share it with third parties for marketing.
Keeping and removing your data
We keep enquiry messages and member records only for as long as they are needed. You may ask us to see the information we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it.
Contact
For any privacy question, or to exercise your rights, please get in touch with the lodge secretary.
