Privacy Policy

Who we are

Digs Guide (digsguide.co.uk) is an independent comparison and review site for UK contractor accommodation. References to "we", "us", or "our" refer to Digs Guide. You can contact us at hello@digsguide.co.uk.

What data we collect

Digs Guide is a read-only comparison site. We do not require account registration or collect personal information directly from visitors. The following data may be collected automatically:

• Usage data — Pages visited, time on site, referring URLs. Collected via anonymous analytics to help us understand which content is useful.
• Technical data — Browser type, device type, approximate location (country/city level). Used for site performance monitoring only.
• Contact form submissions — If you contact us via email, we retain your message and email address to respond to your query.

Cookies

When you first visit Digs Guide, a cookie consent banner is displayed. We only activate non-essential cookies once you have explicitly consented. You can change your preferences at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer.

We use three categories of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for site operation (e.g. session preferences). These cannot be disabled.
• Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors use the site in aggregate (e.g. most-visited pages). No personal data is sold.
• Advertising / affiliate cookies — used by our affiliate partners to attribute referrals when you click through to a provider. Governed by each provider's privacy policy.

Your consent choice is stored locally in your browser (localStorage). We do not transmit it to any server. Affiliate link clicks may be tracked by third-party providers for commission attribution; this is disclosed on our Disclosure page.

How we use your data

• To operate and improve the site
• To respond to contact form enquiries
• To analyse aggregate usage patterns (no individual profiling)

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.

Third-party links

Digs Guide contains links to third-party provider websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We recommend you review the privacy policy of any provider website you visit.

Your rights (UK GDPR)

If you are based in the UK or EU, you have the right to:

• Access personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Object to processing of your data

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@digsguide.co.uk.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of Digs Guide after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
