UK GDPR Compliance

EU Health Guide is committed to respecting your data protection rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). This page explains how we comply with the law and how you can exercise your rights as a data subject.

Scope and Applicability

This compliance page applies to all visitors to eu-directweb.com, regardless of location. While we are not established in the UK, we offer content accessible to UK residents and therefore comply with UK GDPR where applicable. We do not collect personal data through registration or forms, but we may process limited personal data through automated means such as web analytics and server logs.

Your Rights Under UK GDPR

Under UK GDPR, you have the following rights:

  • Right of access: You can request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and obtain a copy of it.
  • Right to rectification: You may request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • Right to erasure: You may request deletion of your personal data under certain conditions.
  • Right to restriction of processing: You may request we limit how we use your data.
  • Right to data portability: You may request your data in a structured, commonly used format.
  • Right to object: You may object to our processing of your data based on legitimate interests.
  • Right not to be subject to automated decision-making: We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

How We Comply

EU Health Guide complies with UK GDPR by:

  • Only collecting data necessary for website functionality and analytics
  • Using cookies and tracking tools with user consent where required
  • Not storing personal data in databases or user accounts
  • Implementing technical measures to protect data integrity and confidentiality
  • Regularly reviewing our data processing activities

Data We Process

We may process the following types of personal data:

  • IP addresses (anonymised where possible)
  • Browser type and device information
  • Pages visited and time spent on site
  • Cookie identifiers for analytics purposes

This data is collected automatically through our website’s analytics tools and server logs. No data is collected via forms, subscriptions, or user accounts.

Legal Basis for Processing

Our legal basis for processing personal data is legitimate interest — specifically, to ensure the website functions properly, to improve user experience, and to analyse traffic patterns. We do not process sensitive personal data. Where consent is required (e.g., for non-essential cookies), we obtain it through a clear cookie banner.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of your rights under UK GDPR, please contact us at:

Email: [email protected]

Include your name, the right you wish to exercise, and any relevant details (e.g., IP address or date of visit if known). We will respond without undue delay.

Response Timeframes

We aim to respond to all requests within one month of receipt. In complex cases, we may extend this to three months and will notify you if this occurs.

No Discrimination Policy

We will not deny you access to our content, charge you fees, or provide you with a different level of service because you exercise your rights under UK GDPR.

Updates and Changes

We may update this compliance page periodically to reflect changes in law or our practices. The most recent version will always be posted here with an updated effective date.
