Who we are
Styleskin is an editorial affiliate content site at https://styleskin.co.uk. For privacy questions, contact contact@styleskin.co.uk. For UK GDPR and EU GDPR purposes, the site operator is the controller for information processed through this website unless another party states otherwise.
Information we may collect
We may process technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, approximate location derived from network data, pages viewed, referring pages, timestamps, cookie identifiers and server logs. If you email us, we may process your name, email address, message content and any page URLs or details you include.
How we use information
We use information to operate and secure the website, respond to messages, correct articles, measure readership, understand which pages are useful, prevent abuse, maintain backups, comply with legal obligations and improve the skincare archive.
Lawful bases
Where UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies, our lawful bases may include legitimate interests, consent where required, contract or pre-contract steps and legal obligation. Legitimate interests may include operating the site, keeping it secure, improving editorial content, responding to reader messages, measuring article performance and maintaining affiliate records.
Cookies and similar technologies
The site may use cookies, local storage, analytics identifiers, affiliate click identifiers or server logs. Browser settings can usually block or delete cookies, but some measurement, attribution, security or preference features may work less smoothly.
Affiliate tracking
Some outbound links may include affiliate identifiers or network tracking parameters. Affiliate networks and merchants may use cookies or similar technologies to attribute referrals, measure conversions, calculate commission and prevent fraud. Their processing is controlled by their own privacy notices.
Third-party websites
When you leave Styleskin for a retailer, beauty brand, merchant, affiliate network, social platform, analytics provider or other website, that third party may collect information under its own terms and privacy policy. We are not responsible for third-party privacy practices.
Sharing
We do not sell personal information from this website. We may share limited information with service providers that help host, secure, analyse or maintain the site; with affiliate networks for attribution and reporting; or where required to comply with law, protect rights, investigate abuse or respond to valid requests.
International transfers
Readers may access the site from the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, the United States, Australia and other locations. Hosting, analytics, email, affiliate or security providers may process information in countries with different data protection laws. Where required, appropriate safeguards may include contractual protections or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
Retention
Server logs, analytics records, affiliate reports and correspondence are retained only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, including security, troubleshooting, legal, accounting, editorial or record-keeping needs. We may delete or anonymise data when it is no longer needed.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to processing, withdraw consent, complain or receive a copy of certain personal information. You can make a request by emailing contact@styleskin.co.uk. We may ask for verification before acting on a request.
Complaints
If UK data protection law applies, you may have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office. If EU data protection law applies, you may complain to your local supervisory authority. We would welcome the chance to respond to your concern first.
Children and security
The site is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, but no website can guarantee perfect security.
Updates
We may update this policy as the site, providers, legal requirements or tracking practices change. The current version applies when it is posted on this page.
