Privacy Policy

PopskisPrivateArmy.com (“we,” “us,” or “the site”) is an educational resource dedicated to the history of No. 1 Demolition Squadron, Popski’s Private Army. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website.

Information we collect

We may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name and email address if you contact us, share material with us, or subscribe to updates. We also automatically collect certain technical information through cookies and analytics tools, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and time spent on the site.

Cookies and tracking technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to understand site usage and remember preferences. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though this may affect site functionality.

Analytics

We use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to help us understand how visitors use the site. These services may collect data about your visits through cookies. You can learn more about Google’s data practices and opt-out options through Google’s own privacy resources.

Material you share with us

If you send us photographs, documents or family information, we use them only to research and, with your permission, publish the history of the unit. We credit contributors as they request and do not pass your contact details to anyone else.

Downloadable resources

If we offer downloadable content (such as printable timelines or maps), we may ask for an email address to deliver the resource or to add you to an email list, which you may unsubscribe from at any time.

How we use information

We use collected information to operate and improve the site, respond to inquiries, deliver requested resources, and, where applicable, send updates you’ve opted into.

Data sharing

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers (such as hosting, email, or analytics providers) who help us operate the site, and as required by law.

For visitors in the United Kingdom, European Union and European Economic Area (GDPR)

If you are located in the UK or the EU/EEA, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, and the UK GDPR) gives you certain rights over your personal data, and we process your data on the following legal bases: your consent (e.g., for optional cookies or email sign-ups), our legitimate interests (e.g., understanding site usage and preventing abuse), and, where applicable, compliance with legal obligations.

Under GDPR, you have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion of your data (“right to be forgotten”); restrict or object to certain processing, including for direct marketing; request a portable copy of your data; and withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

Where we or our service providers (such as analytics providers) transfer personal data outside the UK or EU/EEA, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@popskisprivatearmy.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

For California residents (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), gives you specific rights regarding your personal information.

The categories of personal information we may collect include identifiers (such as email address and IP address) and internet or network activity information (such as browsing behavior and interactions with the site), collected as described earlier in this policy.

You have the right to: know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose; request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions; correct inaccurate personal information; opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (as those terms are broadly defined under California law); and not receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your privacy rights.

We do not sell or share personal information. To exercise any of the rights above, contact us at info@popskisprivatearmy.com. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

Data security

We take reasonable measures to protect information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
