Privacy Policy for BitcoinStrategy.co.uk
Last Updated: 21 June 2026
BitcoinStrategy.co.uk ("we", "us", or "our") is a project operated by Mycelium Consulting Limited, a company registered in England & Wales (company no. 12650679), registered office: 30 Westgate, Otley, West Yorkshire, LS21 3AS. Mycelium Consulting Limited is the data controller responsible for personal data collected through this website. We are committed to protecting your privacy, and this Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose information about you when you visit our website.
Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
- Information you provide directly: When you use our contact form, we collect the information you provide, such as your name, email address, subject, and message content.
- Newsletter subscriptions: When you subscribe to our newsletter or request a gated resource, we collect your email address and, optionally, your first name. Subscriptions use a double opt-in process, so we only add you to our list after you confirm via email.
- Information collected automatically (via Plausible Analytics): We use Plausible Analytics to understand website traffic and usage patterns. Plausible is a privacy-focused analytics tool that does not use cookies and does not collect personally identifiable information (PII). It collects aggregated data such as referral sources, popular pages, visit duration, device type, browser, operating system, and country. This data is anonymized and cannot be used to identify individual users. You can view Plausible's data policy here: https://plausible.io/data-policy.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries submitted through the contact form.
- To send you the educational content, resources, or newsletter you have requested, and to manage your subscription.
- To understand how visitors use our website and improve its content and functionality (using aggregated, anonymized data from Plausible Analytics).
- To comply with legal obligations.
Legal Basis for Processing (UK GDPR)
Our legal basis for processing information depends on the specific context:
- Contact Form Submissions: We process this information based on our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiries or, if applicable, to perform a contract or take steps at your request prior to entering into one.
- Analytics Data (Plausible): We process this aggregated, anonymized data based on our legitimate interest in understanding and improving our website performance and user experience.
- Newsletter Subscriptions: We process your email address (and any first name you provide) on the basis of your consent, given through our double opt-in confirmation. You may withdraw consent and unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
We share information only in the following limited circumstances:
- Website hosting and forms (Netlify): Our website is hosted on Netlify, and contact-form submissions are processed using Netlify Forms. Netlify therefore processes the personal data you submit through our forms (such as your name, email address, and message) on our behalf as a data processor. See Netlify's Privacy Policy.
- Newsletter delivery: Newsletter sign-ups and emails are managed through our own email platform and delivered via Amazon Web Services (Amazon SES, EU region). Your email address is processed solely to manage your subscription and send the content you have requested.
- Analytics (Plausible): Plausible Analytics processes aggregated, anonymized data on our behalf as described above.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we have a good faith belief that disclosure is reasonably necessary to (a) investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities or to assist government enforcement agencies; (b) enforce our agreements with you; (c) investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations; (d) protect the security or integrity of our service; or (e) exercise or protect the rights and safety of our users, personnel, or others.
International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers are based outside the UK. In particular, Netlify (which hosts our website and processes form submissions) is based in the United States. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards recognised under UK GDPR (Chapter V) — such as the International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA), the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or an adequacy decision — so that your data continues to receive an equivalent level of protection. Email delivery for our newsletter (Amazon SES) takes place within the European Union.
Data Retention
We retain information submitted through the contact form only for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry or resolve the matter. Aggregated analytics data from Plausible is retained according to their data retention policies.
Your Data Protection Rights (UK GDPR)
Under UK data protection law, you have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:
- The right to access -- You have the right to request copies of your personal data.
- The right to rectification -- You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.
- The right to erasure -- You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions.
- The right to restrict processing -- You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
- The right to object to processing -- You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
- The right to data portability -- You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.
You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk).
Security
We take reasonable measures to help protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
