Privacy Policy for very-well.co.uk

This Privacy Policy explains how very-well.co.uk operates in relation to personal data and privacy for visitors located in the European Union, including Ireland. It is written to align with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Irish and EU data protection law.

Data Controller

The data controller for very-well.co.uk is the operator of this website.

For all privacy and data protection enquiries, you can contact:

Email: [email protected]

This contact address is available for any questions about this Privacy Policy or how the site is run from a data protection perspective.

Scope of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors accessing very-well.co.uk from within the European Union. It is particularly relevant for users in Ireland, where EU GDPR and the Irish Data Protection Act apply alongside guidance from the Data Protection Commission (DPC).

The policy covers how the site handles personal data, the absence of tracking technologies, and the limited technical information associated with standard web browsing.

No Collection of Personal Data

The website is designed to operate without collecting, storing, or processing personal data from visitors.

When you visit very-well.co.uk:

You are not asked to create an account.
You are not asked to submit your name, email address, contact details, or any other identifying information via forms.
There are no contact forms, comment sections, chat widgets, or newsletter sign-up mechanisms.
No behavioural profiling, marketing segmentation, or user tracking is carried out.

Content is presented on a read-only basis. You can browse pages without any interaction that would result in the site obtaining personal data about you.

Legal Basis and Purposes of Processing

Under GDPR, a data controller must identify the legal basis and purposes for processing personal data. very-well.co.uk is operated so that, as a matter of design, it does not process personal data and therefore does not rely on consent, contract, legitimate interests, or any other lawful basis for such processing.

The site’s sole purpose is to provide static, informational content. This purpose is fulfilled without the collection or analysis of identifiable user information.

If you choose to contact the site using the email address provided, any personal data you include in your email will be processed by the email service provider used by the website operator, solely for the purpose of reading and responding to your enquiry. In that situation, the legal basis for processing would be legitimate interests or, where relevant, steps taken at your request. That processing is limited to the content of the correspondence and is not linked to your browsing activity.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

very-well.co.uk does not use cookies or similar tracking technologies.

In particular:

No analytics cookies are deployed to measure traffic or user behaviour.
No login or session cookies are used because there are no accounts or authenticated areas.
No advertising or marketing cookies are placed on your device.
No third-party tracking pixels, beacons, or scripts are integrated.

Because cookies and tracking tools are not used, you will not encounter cookie banners or consent pop-ups on this site.

Third-Party Content and Services

The site does not embed or load external content that could indirectly collect data about you.

Specifically:

No embedded videos (such as YouTube or Vimeo) are used.
No external map services (such as Google Maps) are integrated.
No remote font libraries (such as Google Fonts) are loaded.
No social media plugins, share buttons, or embedded timelines are included.

The website is structured so that all content is served directly from its own hosting environment, without including third-party widgets or scripts that would typically transmit information to external providers.

Technical Access Data

As with most websites, visiting very-well.co.uk involves your browser sending certain technical information to the server, such as IP address, user agent, and requested pages. The website is configured so that this technical data is handled at a minimal level and is not used to identify individual visitors.

The hosting environment may generate temporary server logs for operational and security purposes, such as detecting abuse or ensuring the site remains accessible in Ireland and across the EU. These logs are managed by the hosting provider and are not used by the website operator to create user profiles, track behaviour, or combine log entries with other data to identify individuals.

Where such log data is present, it is processed on the basis of legitimate interests in maintaining the stability and security of the service. The information is kept only for routine operational periods determined by the hosting provider and is not retained for marketing or analytics.

No Automated Decision-Making or Profiling

The site does not engage in automated decision-making, including profiling, within the meaning of GDPR.

There are no algorithms evaluating visitor behaviour, no risk scoring, and no personalised content delivery based on individual characteristics or actions on the site.

Because the site does not collect personal data from visitors, there is no regular sharing of such data with third parties for marketing, analytics, or advertising purposes.

Any technical data handled by the hosting provider remains within the scope of standard website operation. The operator does not disclose individual visitor information to other organisations.

If you send an email to [email protected], the content of that email will be processed by the email service provider used by the operator. This may involve storage on servers located within or outside the EU. In that case, appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms may apply, in line with GDPR and Irish data protection requirements.

Data Retention

Since very-well.co.uk does not actively collect personal data through the site, there is no structured retention schedule for user records.

For email communications:

Emails sent to [email protected] may be retained for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and maintain a clear record of correspondence.
Once no longer required, messages may be archived or deleted in line with lawful business practice and applicable data protection rules.

Any technical data stored in server logs is retained only for the period necessary to operate and secure the site, based on hosting provider settings.

Even though very-well.co.uk does not collect personal data via the site interface, you retain all rights granted under GDPR and Irish data protection law in relation to any personal data that might be processed, for example through direct email contact.

These rights include:

Right of access: to know whether your personal data is being processed and, if so, to receive information about that processing.
Right to rectification: to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
Right to erasure: to request deletion of personal data in certain circumstances.
Right to restriction of processing: to request limits on how your data is used in specific scenarios.
Right to object: to object to processing based on legitimate interests or public interest, where applicable.
Right to data portability: to receive personal data you have provided in a structured, commonly used format, where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means.

If you have provided personal data through email communication and wish to exercise any of these rights, you can contact the website operator using [email protected].

Complaints and Supervisory Authority

If you are located in Ireland and have concerns about how your personal data is handled, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Irish Data Protection Commission. Visitors elsewhere in the EU may contact their national data protection authority.

You are encouraged to contact the website operator first at [email protected] so that any issue can be addressed directly and efficiently.

Children’s Privacy

The content on very-well.co.uk is informational and general in nature. The site does not target children, and it does not offer interactive features that would enable children to submit personal data.

As the site does not collect data via forms or accounts, there is no specific processing of children’s personal data.

Security Measures

The website uses standard technical and organisational measures consistent with typical hosting practices in Ireland and the wider EU to protect the integrity and availability of the content.

These measures may include:

Use of secure protocols for data transmission where supported by the hosting environment.
Restriction of administrative access to authorised persons.
Monitoring of the hosting platform for unusual activity.

Because the site does not store visitor profiles or user accounts, the risk surface for personal data exposure is greatly reduced.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes in legal requirements, guidance from the Irish Data Protection Commission or other EU authorities, or adjustments in how the website is operated.

If the nature of the site ever changes to include forms, accounts, analytics, or other data-processing activities, this Privacy Policy will be revised in a way that clearly explains what data is collected, why it is collected, and how it is used, in line with GDPR transparency obligations.

Any updated Privacy Policy will be made available on this page so visitors in Ireland and across the EU can review the current position at any time.
