This explains what personal data Accessimo collects when you use this website, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and what rights you have over it.

Accessimo ("we", "us") is the data controller for the personal data described below. If you have any questions, email [email protected].

What we collect

We collect as little as possible, and only what the site needs to function:

  • The website address you submit to the free scanner. We use this to run an automated accessibility check and to show you the results.
  • Your email address, if you ask us to send you a copy of a scan report, or if you email us using the contact link on the homepage.
  • Basic technical data, such as your IP address, which is used briefly to prevent abuse of the free scanner (for example, limiting how many scans one visitor can run per hour). This is not linked to your name or stored long-term, it is automatically discarded after about an hour.

The homepage "get in touch" link opens your own email application and sends a message directly to our inbox. It is not a form, and Accessimo's website does not store anything you type into your email client.

We do not use tracking cookies, analytics scripts, or advertising pixels on this site.

Why we collect it

  • To run the accessibility scan you asked for and show you the results.
  • To email you a copy of your scan report, if you request one.
  • To respond to enquiries you send us.
  • To keep the free scanner working reliably and prevent misuse.

We do not use your email address for marketing, and we do not add you to a mailing list. If that ever changes, we will ask for your consent first.

How long we keep it

Scan results and the email address attached to them are kept for up to 12 months, after which they are deleted. If you email us directly, that message is kept as normal business correspondence and handled the same way any small business handles its inbox.

You can ask us to delete your data sooner at any time, see "Your rights" below.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes. To run the site, we rely on two data processors, companies that handle data on our behalf, under our instructions:

  • Cloudflare, who host this website and store scan results and email addresses in their D1 database service.
  • Resend, who send the scan report emails on our behalf.

Both may process data on servers outside the UK as part of their global infrastructure, and both provide contractual safeguards for handling data from UK and EU users. We do not use any other third-party processors for the data described in this policy.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correct it, if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • Ask us to delete it, and we will do so unless we have a good reason not to (for example, an ongoing legal obligation).
  • Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's independent regulator for data protection, if you think we have handled your data incorrectly. You can reach the ICO at ico.org.uk.

To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We aim to respond within a month.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site changes. The date at the top shows when it was last revised. If we make a significant change, we will update this page and, where appropriate, let you know.

This policy is written in plain English to be genuinely useful, but it is general information, not legal advice. If you need advice on your own data protection obligations, speak to a solicitor or data protection professional.
