Who looks after the website for us

This website is hosted for us in the United Kingdom by British Web Design, who process this information on our behalf. They also deliver the website’s email, and they receive the website’s error reports so that they can fix faults. An error report can include a visitor’s IP address and what they typed into a form.

Spam protection

Our forms are checked by Google reCAPTCHA to stop spam. It loads with the page, before any choice about cookies, and lets Google see your IP address and information about your browser.

Maps

The map on our Find us page is shown by Google Maps. Google sees your IP address when the map loads and may set cookies of its own.

Cookies

The website sets a session cookie and a security cookie, which every visitor needs for the site and its forms to work.

The website keeps no visitor statistics of its own. If we switch on Google Analytics or advertising tags (such as Google Ads or the Meta Pixel), a banner will ask you first, and nothing is set until you accept. Your answer is remembered in your browser.

Under UK data protection law (UK GDPR) you can ask us for a copy of the information we hold about you, ask us to correct it or delete it, and object to how we use it. Email us at goldenowlpubgroup@gmail.com and we will help. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page tells you when it last changed.
