Privacy policy
This site is a home for The Verification Files podcast. We collect as little about you as we can. This page explains what that is and what you can do about it.
Who we are
The Verification Files website is run by [operator name to confirm], who is responsible for any personal data collected through it. You can reach us about privacy at [contact email to confirm].
Browsing the site
We don’t use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers, and we don’t build profiles of visitors.
Like most websites, our hosting provider may keep short-lived server logs (such as IP address, browser type and the page requested) to keep the site running and secure.
Our fonts are served from this site, so loading a page doesn’t send your details to a third-party font service.
Sending us a file
If you use the “Send a file” form, we receive what you choose to give us:
- your description of what happened
- any links to evidence you add
- your email address, only if you untick “Keep me anonymous”
We use this only to look into what you’ve reported and, if you gave us your email, to follow up with you. We won’t name you publicly or on the podcast without your permission, and we don’t sell or share your details for marketing. We keep submissions only as long as we need them for that purpose.
Our legal basis is our legitimate interest in investigating the issues the podcast covers, or your consent where you choose to share your email.
Links to other sites
We link to Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Provero and the sources behind each episode. Those sites have their own privacy policies, which apply once you leave this one.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask to see the personal data we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, or object to how we use it. Contact us using the details above. If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Changes
If we change how we handle data, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
