This Privacy Policy explains how Clearliverefine (“we”, “us”) processes personal data when you use https://clearliverefine.world and related services. We act as the data controller for personal data described below. This notice is designed to meet the transparency requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and to reflect good practice for visitors from other jurisdictions.
1. Who we are
Trading name: Clearliverefine
Address: Cloona, Westport, Co. Mayo, F28 C780, Ireland
Email: online@clearliverefine.world
Phone: +353 83 005 9249
For privacy enquiries, please contact us using the email address above. You may also contact the Data Protection Commission in Ireland if you consider that processing infringes applicable law (see Section 10).
2. Irish and EU legal framework
We process personal data in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”), which applies in Ireland as part of EU law. The Data Protection Act 2018 gives further effect to the GDPR in Ireland and contains additional national rules (including provisions on processing for journalistic, academic, artistic, or literary purposes, certain enforcement powers, and related matters) where they may apply.
The Data Protection Commission (DPC) is the independent supervisory authority for Ireland. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the DPC if you consider that our processing infringes data protection law. The DPC’s website is https://www.dataprotection.ie.
3. Scope
This policy applies to information collected through this website, including contact forms, cookie-related data, and server logs. It does not govern third-party websites that we link to; their policies apply instead.
4. Categories of personal data we collect
Depending on how you use the site, we may process:
- Identity and contact data: name, email address, and message content that you submit via forms.
- Technical and usage data: IP address, browser type, device information, referring URLs, timestamps, and pages viewed, collected through server logs or analytics tools if you consent to analytics cookies.
- Cookie and preference data: information stored in cookies or similar technologies reflecting your consent choices.
We do not ask you to provide special categories of personal data (such as data revealing health or beliefs). Please avoid including such information in free-text messages unless you choose to do so voluntarily.
5. Purposes and legal bases (GDPR Article 6)
We process personal data only where a legal basis applies:
- Performance of a contract or pre-contract steps: responding to enquiries you initiate (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- Legitimate interests: operating and securing the website, understanding aggregate usage to improve content structure, and keeping records of correspondence, where such interests are not overridden by your rights (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Consent: non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing) and any optional communications you explicitly agree to (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.
- Legal obligation: retaining certain records where required by law (Article 6(1)(c) GDPR).
6. How we use your data
We use personal data to: read and respond to messages; maintain website security; analyse aggregated traffic patterns if permitted; honour cookie preferences; comply with legal requests; and defend legal claims where necessary.
7. Recipients and processors
We may share data with trusted service providers who process it on our instructions (for example hosting, email delivery, or analytics if consented). Such providers are bound by contractual clauses requiring appropriate security and confidentiality. We do not sell your personal data.
8. International transfers
If any processor is located outside the European Economic Area, we ensure appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission or adequacy decisions, unless an exception applies.
9. Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes collected:
- Contact form messages: typically up to 24 months after the last interaction unless a longer period is required for legal claims or compliance.
- Server logs: usually up to 90 days, unless extended for security investigations.
- Cookie consent records: up to 12 months or as needed to demonstrate consent.
- Analytics data (if used): according to the tool’s configuration, often aggregated or pseudonymised, and not kept longer than needed for statistics.
When retention ends, we delete or anonymise data where feasible.
10. Your rights
Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to: access your data; request rectification of inaccuracies; request erasure (“right to be forgotten”); request restriction of processing; data portability for data you provided where processing is automated and based on consent or contract; object to processing based on legitimate interests; and withdraw consent for consent-based processing. You may lodge a complaint with the Irish Data Protection Commission (website: https://www.dataprotection.ie/) or your local supervisory authority.
To exercise rights, email us at the address in Section 1. We may need to verify your identity before responding. We aim to respond within one month, which may be extended in complex cases as permitted by law.
11. Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures, including HTTPS transport encryption where configured on hosting, access limitations, and provider due diligence. No online transmission is completely risk-free; you should also protect your devices and accounts.
12. Children
This website is not directed at children under 16. If you believe a child has provided data, contact us and we will take steps to delete it where appropriate.
13. Automated decision-making
We do not use solely automated decision-making, including profiling, that produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning you.
14. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect legal or operational changes. The “Last updated” date will change accordingly. Material changes may be highlighted on the site where practical.
