Privacy information (draft for operator review)
This page explains in plain language how the website Passport Care Guide: Store, Cover and Protect handles information. It is a draft. No operator identity has been supplied, so the operator must review and complete it before publication. This draft does not claim compliance with any particular privacy law.
What the enquiry form collects: to send an enquiry, a visitor must provide a name, an email address and a message, and must confirm a privacy acknowledgement. A phone number is optional and can be left blank. The site also records the time the enquiry was created.
How enquiries are stored: submitted enquiries and their timestamps are saved in a local private file on the site's own server space, protected by PHP. They can be read through a password-protected local inbox page. Please do not include passport numbers, scans or other sensitive identity details in your message. The site does not need them to answer a general question.
No email delivery: no outgoing email service is configured. Enquiries are not automatically sent to any email address, and the site cannot promise that anyone will be notified or reply. Someone must open the inbox to see them.
Retention: no retention schedule is configured. The operator must decide how long enquiries are kept, set up a deletion routine, and describe it here before publication.
Sessions and browser storage: the site uses a necessary PHP session cookie. It protects the form against forged submissions (CSRF) and limits repeated submissions. Separately, your browser's localStorage holds a key named site-consent-v1 with the value yes or no, recording your choice about optional cookies. This choice is stored in your browser and is not part of the enquiry form.
Third parties: no optional analytics or advertising tags are currently configured. If any are added later, this page and the cookie information must be updated first. Hosting is not yet confirmed, and any hosting provider that ends up storing the data must be identified by the operator.
Your choices: you may choose not to submit the form or to leave the phone field empty. To ask about, correct or delete an enquiry you have sent, use the contact method the operator publishes once it has been verified. Operators should add a clear process for such requests.
