Butlin's Memorabilia's Websites Privacy Notice

 I am genuinely pleased to see that this website has been a source of joy and nostalgia for many. However, it is important to recognize that, like many services, maintaining the site incurs costs. Unfortunately, donations have not been as plentiful as I had hoped, prompting the need to explore alternative funding avenues. The introduction of advertisements became a viable option to assist with these expenses. Fortunately, two reputable companies, Google and eBay, have expressed interest in collaborating with the site. I believe their involvement could provide you with beneficial options without risk.

It is crucial to clarify that neither Google nor eBay has any direct affiliation with the Butlins Memorabilia website. Both are independent entities that provide services unrelated to this platform. Therefore, Butlins Memorabilia cannot be held accountable for any issues or content associated with their respective sites, and similarly, Google and eBay bear no responsibility for the material presented here.

I reached out to both Google and eBay regarding my website, rather than the other way around. I am sincerely grateful for this opportunity. As I navigate this new venture, please feel free to share any feedback through the contact options available in the menu above.

Below, I have provided information on how these platforms can assist you in discovering that unique item you might be searching for. Thank you for your visit and for taking the time to read this message. Best regards, Mark.

In terms of privacy, I assure you that I do not share any email addresses or personal names provided to me for any reason. This information is treated as confidential, and inquiries regarding it will not be addressed.

Butlins memorabilia adheres to a conventional approach involving the utilization of log files. These files record the activity of visitors on websites, a common practice among all hosting companies as part of their analytics services. The data captured by these log files consists of internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser types, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), timestamps of visits, referral and exit pages, and potentially click counts.

GDPR Data Protection Rights

Butlins Memorabilia and Mark Banks wish to ensure that you are fully informed about your rights under GDPR regarding data protection.

It is important to note that Butlins Memorabilia and Mark Banks do not collect any personal data from users, as this is not a requirement for this website. Nevertheless, the rights outlined below remain applicable. Although Butlins Memorabilia does not retain any personal information, we aim to be transparent and assure you that we are not concealing anything.

1. The right to access - This right allows you to request a copy of any data that Butlins Memorabilia may hold about you. Since our website does not store personal information, there will be no data available to provide.

2. The right to rectification - This right enables you to correct any inaccurate information about yourself. However, as Butlins Memorabilia does not maintain personal details, there is nothing to amend.

3. The right to erasure - This right permits you to request the deletion of your information from Butlins Memorabilia. Given that we do not store personal data, there is nothing to remove, except for the email address used for communication, which is deleted after the conversation concludes.

4. The right to restrict processing - This right allows you to request limitations on how your data is processed. Since Butlins Memorabilia does not retain personal information beyond the use of your email for communication, there is no need for restrictions. Your email address is treated with confidentiality and will not be displayed on the Butlins Memorabilia website.

5. The right to object to processing - This right gives you the ability to challenge the methods used for processing your data. As Butlins Memorabilia does not store personal information, there is no processing in place other than the use of your email address for communication, as previously mentioned.

6. The right to data portability – This right enables you to ask for your data to be moved to a different organization. Since the Butlins Memorabilia website is managed exclusively by Mark Banks as a tribute to the Butlins Legacy and does not retain any personal information, there would be no necessity to request such a transfer, as there is no data stored.

If you feel that there are any additional elements that should be included in this selection, please feel free to reach out to me to discuss how we can enhance the experience for everyone using the Butlins Memorabilia website.

Children's Information

One of our key priorities is to enhance the safety of children while they navigate the internet. We strongly encourage parents and guardians to actively observe, engage in, and oversee their children's online activities. Butlins memorabilia does not intentionally gather any Personally Identifiable Information from individuals visiting the website. The only information collected is from those who voluntarily provide their details when communicating with Mark through the email options available on the Butlins Memorabilia website.

Email Address usage 
Butlins Memorabilia has implemented a new contact system designed to reduce the influx of spam that has regrettably affected the inbox. This feature enables Mark to filter out unwanted messages, thereby facilitating more meaningful conversations with those eager to share their Butlins experiences. The email address provided will be used exclusively for responses until the discussion concludes. Afterwards, the email address will be removed from the system until further communication with Mark and the Butlins Memorabilia website occurs. There are no intentions to utilize this information for any purpose other than to engage with you on relevant topics, such as the Untold Stories.

Butlins Memorabilia website email addresses
All correspondence from Butlins Memorabilia will exclusively originate from the email address ending in @butlinsmemorabilia.co.uk. Any email address that does not include this domain should be regarded as a phishing attempt (someone impersonating me). In such cases, please delete the email immediately and, if possible, report it to your email provider, such as hotmail.com. Please be assured that Butlins Memorabilia will never request your personal information.

Facebook page and groups associated with the Butlins Memorabilia website
We kindly invite you to click on the provided words to access the official social media accounts associated with this website. Please be aware that any other pages claiming to be linked are not affiliated with us and may represent individuals misrepresenting their connection.

Website links and domain
All website links will consistently feature .butlinsmemorabilia.co.uk, which also applies to the email address. If this address is absent, it is advisable to treat that site as a phishing attempt aimed at collecting your information. Please keep in mind that the Butlins Memorabilia website does not ask for any personal information. The only legitimate site is butlinsmemorabilia.co.uk.

For instance, valid examples include mark.butlinsmemorabilia.co.uk or untold.butlinsmemorabilia.co.uk, where the ending aligns with the website's domain name.

Conversely, examples such as mark.butlinsmemorabilia.co.uk.com or untold.butlinsmemorabiliacouk.com are problematic, as the addition of .com indicates these links are not affiliated.

Google Adsense Adverts

Non-personalised ads

After reviewing the available options, I have concluded that the most suitable choice is to opt for the non-personalized advertisements. The Google ads are designed to present topics of interest that you may wish to explore further.

Googles Description

Non-personalized advertisements rely on contextual data instead of an individual's previous online behaviour. While these ads do not utilize cookies for personalization, they do employ cookies for purposes such as frequency capping, aggregated reporting, and preventing fraud and abuse. Consequently, in regions where the EU ePrivacy Directive's cookie regulations are applicable, user consent is necessary for the use of cookies for these functions. It is important to note that Google does not mandate obtaining consent for the use of the browser's Trust Token API aimed at addressing fraud and abuse.

Further Information

To optimize the advertisement experience on partner websites, Google makes use of cookies, which are found on sites displaying Google ads or those that are part of Google-certified ad networks. When users navigate to a partner's site, a cookie may be set in their browser. Various third-party vendors, including Google, rely on cookies to provide advertisements that are informed by a user's past visits to your website or other online destinations. This functionality allows Google and its partners to present ads to users based on their browsing patterns on your sites and other areas of the Internet. Additionally, this site may utilize third-party vendors or advertising networks for ad placement.

Ebay's links

BuBuilding a collection of Butlins Memorabilia can be a delightful and rewarding hobby. Personally, I have found eBay to be an invaluable resource in enhancing my collection. The website provides links to eBay, guiding you on where to purchase items to expand your collection. By following these links, you will be directed to an auction platform where you can learn more about specific items and explore purchasing options.

When you click on the provided link, a cookie will monitor your activity to determine if a purchase has been made. Rest assured, no personal information is gathered; the cookie simply tracks sales to enable this website to receive a small commission for the referral. This cookie, known as EPN, will remain active for less than 24 hours after your click.
