What follows applies to partyfiles.com, where Partyfiles publishes Partyfiles. It covers what we collect, who else is involved, and the rights you hold.

Email Subscriptions

Newsletter subscriptions use double opt-in verification. Unsubscribe links appear in all email along with our postal address, removal is instant, and subscriber addresses are not rented, sold, or handed to third parties for their own marketing.

About Cookies

See the Cookie Policy for the categories of cookie involved and the controls available to you.

• Where advertising is served, third-party vendors including Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.

Our Use of Your Data

It is used to run the site, to improve what we publish by seeing which pages are read, to honour newsletter subscriptions, and to serve advertising where that is in place.

What We Collect

The data involved falls into two buckets. Passively collected: log and analytics information — IP address, device and browser — about the connection used to reach partyfiles.com, and the path taken through the site. Actively provided: an email address for the mailing list, comment details, or the contents of a message to us. Because this site covers Partyfiles, one point deserves its own sentence — we ask readers not to send us sensitive personal details, and we delete rather than retain anything of that kind that reaches us unprompted.

Data Lifespan and Security

We hold data only as long as the purpose requires. Subscriber records end at unsubscribe; comments end at deletion; analytics follow the retention window of whichever provider is in use. Safeguards include access control and transport encryption. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and we do not claim to.

Service Providers

To publish at all we depend on third parties: hosting, analytics, email, and where applicable advertising. Each has its own privacy policy. Advertising and analytics vendors in particular act as independent controllers, so that policy — not this one — governs how they use what they collect.

Choices Available to You

Whichever framework applies to you — UK/EU GDPR, California’s CCPA/CPRA, or another US state law — you can generally request access, correction, deletion, or portability of your data, object to particular uses, and opt out of sale or sharing for advertising. Global Privacy Control signals are honoured without you needing to contact us. Our State Privacy Notice and Do Not Sell or Share page go further.

Our Audience and Age

Readers are assumed to be adults. We neither target nor knowingly collect information from children below 13, or below 16 in jurisdictions setting that limit; such information is deleted if found.
