For questions about your information or to exercise your rights, email journeys@mycelticheritage.com.
What we collect and why
When you request a starter journey, we collect your email address, the family surname you enter, your selected county, trip length and travel preference. We store the date of your request, the privacy notice version and delivery records to provide the itinerary, handle delivery problems and avoid duplicate sends. Required fields are needed to provide this service; you can browse the rest of the site without submitting the form.
We rely on your consent to create and email the requested journey. You can withdraw consent by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing that has already taken place. We also have a legitimate interest in protecting the service and maintaining proportionate security and delivery records. The form does not subscribe you to a marketing newsletter.
Services we use
The website runs on OpenAI Sites with Cloudflare hosting and database infrastructure. Resend receives the email address and itinerary content to send your requested email. These providers may process technical information such as IP addresses, request times and browser details for operation and security. We do not sell your signup information.
Provider processing may take place outside the UK or EEA. Resend stores data in the United States, including message content and delivery logs, and provides contractual transfer safeguards in its Data Processing Addendum. Choosing Ireland as the sending region does not mean all email data is stored in Ireland.
How long we keep information
We retain signup and delivery records while needed to provide your requested journey, resolve delivery or support issues, and prevent duplicate sends. We assess whether records remain necessary and remove information no longer needed for these purposes. You can ask us to delete your information sooner. Hosting logs and email-provider records are also subject to the providers’ retention arrangements.
Your choices and rights
Depending on the law that applies, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your information, object to processing based on legitimate interests, or withdraw consent. Contact the address above; we may need to verify that a request is yours. You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner at ico.org.uk or your local data protection authority.
Cookies and itinerary limits
This planner does not add advertising or analytics cookies. Hosting and authentication services may use essential technical mechanisms to operate and protect the site. Itinerary suggestions use curated regional routes; we do not search family records, process DNA or make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects about you.
