Privacy Policy
This policy explains how personal information is handled when you visit this website, send an enquiry or become a client.
Last reviewed: 9 September 2026
Who is responsible for your information
Marin Website Solutions is operated by Gabriel Marin in Newmarket, Suffolk, United Kingdom. For questions or privacy requests, email marinwebsolutions@gmail.com.
The business's formal legal status and any service address required for legal notices are awaiting professional confirmation and are not invented here.
Information collected
When you use the enquiry form, the website collects your name, email address, optional phone number and message. It also records technical request information, including the submitting IP address, to deliver the enquiry and help protect the form from misuse.
If you become a client, project communications may also contain business details, briefs, supplied content, approvals, invoices and records needed to provide the agreed work.
How information is used
- To respond to enquiries and discuss requested services.
- To prepare, manage and deliver agreed client work.
- To keep necessary business, payment and project records.
- To secure the website, prevent abuse and diagnose technical problems.
- With consent, to understand website usage through optional analytics.
- To meet legal, tax or regulatory obligations where they apply.
The lawful basis depends on the context and may include taking steps at your request before a contract, performing a contract, legitimate interests, legal obligations or consent. A legal adviser should confirm the final basis and wording.
Where information goes
Enquiries are stored in the site's protected backend and delivered by Resend to the business inbox. Access to enquiry records is restricted to the authenticated owner account. Service providers may process limited technical or personal data only as needed to provide their service.
- Lovable: website hosting, backend and related infrastructure.
- Resend: enquiry email delivery.
- Stripe: off-site card payments through Stripe Payment Links; this website does not receive your card details.
- Google Analytics: optional usage analytics after consent.
- Google Fonts and OpenStreetMap: font and map resources requested by your browser.
- Counter API: the optional visit-counter request after analytics consent.
Providers may process data outside the UK. Their safeguards and contractual terms should be confirmed during formal legal review.
Retention and security
Personal information is kept only for as long as reasonably needed for the enquiry, project, business records, legal obligations or dispute handling. Exact retention periods are still to be confirmed and should be added after legal review.
Reasonable technical and organisational protections are used, including server-side form handling, restricted record access and protected service credentials. No online system can promise absolute security.
Your rights
Depending on the circumstances, UK data-protection law may give you rights to access, correct, erase or restrict personal information, object to certain processing, withdraw consent, or receive portable data. Email marinwebsolutions@gmail.com to make a request. Identity may need to be verified.
You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office. Please consider contacting Marin Website Solutions first so the concern can be understood and addressed.
Cookies and choices
Optional analytics is not loaded until you accept it. See the Cookie Policy for the current storage and third-party list and how to change your preference.
Changes
This policy may be updated when services, providers or legal requirements change. The review date at the top identifies the current version.
