Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 5 April 2026

At Cardiff Media Ltd, accessible from www.cardiffmedia.co.uk, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information collected and recorded by Cardiff Media and how we use it.

If you have additional questions or require more information about our data practices, please do not hesitate to contact us.

​

1. UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR)

Cardiff Media Ltd acts as the Data Controller of your information. Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described in this policy depends on the specific context in which it is collected:

• Contractual Necessity: To perform a service or contract with you.

• Consent: Where you have given us explicit permission to do so (e.g., signing up for a newsletter).

• Legitimate Interests: To improve our services, website performance, and business security.

• Legal Compliance: To comply with UK laws and regulations.

We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.

​

2. Your Data Protection Rights

If you are a resident of the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area (EEA), you have specific rights regarding your personal data. Cardiff Media Ltd aims to take reasonable steps to allow you to correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your Personal Data.

You have the right to:

• Access, update, or delete the information we have on you.

• Rectify any information that is inaccurate or incomplete.

• Object to our processing of your personal data.

• Data Portability (request a copy of your data in a structured format).

• Withdraw Consent at any time where we relied on your consent to process information.

​

3. Log Files & Analytics

Cardiff Media follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites as part of hosting services' analytics. The information collected includes:

• Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and browser types.

• Internet Service Provider (ISP).

• Date and time stamps.

• Referring/exit pages and click activity.

This data is not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose is to analyse trends, manage the site, and understand user movement to improve our web design and SEO services.

​

4. Cookies and Web Beacons

Like most professional websites, Cardiff Media uses 'cookies' to store information including visitors' preferences and the pages accessed. We use this to optimise your experience by customising our web page content based on your browser type and interaction history. You can choose to disable cookies through your individual browser settings at any time.

​

5. Third-Party Privacy Policies

Our Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or websites. If you click a link to an external site or interact with third-party tools (such as YouTube embeds or Wix analytics), we advise you to consult their respective Privacy Policies for detailed information on their practices.

​

6. Children's Information

Protecting children online is a priority. Cardiff Media does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you believe your child has provided such information on our website, please contact us immediately, and we will make our best efforts to promptly remove such records.

​

7. Online Policy Only

This Privacy Policy applies only to our online activities and is valid for visitors to our website regarding the information shared or collected there. It does not apply to information collected offline or via channels other than this website.

​

8. Consent

By using our website, you hereby consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.

SEO Expert Implementation Note:

1. Transparency & Trust: In 2026, Google’s AI models place a high weight on "Transparency." Having a clean, manually-written Privacy Policy (without "Generator" tags) significantly boosts your E-E-A-T score.

2. Internal Linking: Ensure your footer has a clear link to this page.

3. Wix-Specific Detail: Since you are on Wix, your site also uses their system cookies (like XSRF-TOKEN for security). This policy covers those under the "Log Files" and "Cookies" sections perfectly.

4. Reference Link: For extra authority, you could include a link to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) website, noting that users have the right to complain to them if they are unhappy with how their data is handled. This is a massive "Trust Signal."
