Starlight Reference Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Starlight Media Ltd operates the website Starlight Reference and processes personal data in relation to our informational content about the 12 Western zodiac signs. We aim to be clear and concise about what data we collect, why it is collected, and how you can exercise your rights. The policy applies to visitors and users in English-speaking European countries and to any information submitted through the site contact channels. We collect minimal personal data for editorial correspondence and optional analytics as described below. Essential site functionality requires a limited set of cookies; optional analytics cookies are presented with a simple control allowing you to accept or reject them. This policy covers our editorial, contact and analytics practices and lists how to contact our data representative for questions, requests and corrections.

Data we collect and how it is used

We collect only the information you provide voluntarily when using our contact form or email links. Typical fields include name, email address, phone number (optional), subject and message content. We use this information to respond to editorial enquiries, manage content correction requests and to handle legitimate correspondence related to the site. Contact form submissions are retained to maintain an ongoing record of editorial correspondence, including corrections and partnership requests. We may also retain minimal technical logs such as IP address, browser type and referral page for security, abuse prevention and to assist with diagnosing technical problems. These logs are not used to profile individuals for advertising targeting. If you provide personal data to another party through content you post in messages, that data is controlled by you and processed only to the extent necessary to respond to your request. We do not sell personal data. Processing of contact information is based on our legitimate interest in operating the site and on consent where required for optional analytics cookies.

Cookies and tracking technologies

We use a minimal cookie approach to provide functionality and to improve performance. Essential cookies support navigation, secure sessions and cookie preference storage; these are necessary for the site to function and cannot be disabled via the site interface. Optional analytics cookies are used to gather aggregated, anonymised information about site usage so we can enhance content and performance. When the cookie prompt appears, you can accept or reject analytics cookies; your choice is stored in your browser to respect that preference on future visits. We do not use third-party advertising cookies on this site. Where we use small third-party services for performance or analytics, we only use services that allow IP anonymisation and limit data retention, and we list those partners on request. If you prefer to opt out of optional analytics, use the cookie reject button in the visible cookie control or adjust your browser settings to block site cookies. Note that blocking all cookies may reduce site functionality.

Your rights and how to contact us

If you are located in the EU or the UK, you have certain data rights under applicable law. These include the right to access personal data we hold about you, to request correction of inaccurate data, to request deletion in certain circumstances, to restrict processing, and to object to processing where the legal basis is legitimate interest. To exercise your rights, contact us using the details below. We will verify identity before responding to a request and will respond within a reasonable period, usually within one month. If you are not satisfied with our response you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country. Our contact details for data requests and editorial matters are listed in the site footer and repeated below for convenience. We retain contact correspondence for as long as necessary to address the enquiry and for up to two years for record-keeping unless longer retention is needed for legal obligations or dispute resolution. We apply technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss and misuse. However, no internet transmission is completely secure; if you have concerns about transmitting particularly sensitive information, we recommend contacting us by phone or using secure channels as appropriate.
