Information we collect
- Information you give us: your name and email when you subscribe to our newsletter or use the contact form.
- Information collected automatically: standard log data (IP address, browser type, pages visited) and cookie-based analytics, used in aggregate to understand how the site is used.
- Cookies and similar technologies: see our Cookie Policy for detail and your choices.
How we use your information

Legal bases (GDPR)
We process personal data on the basis of your consent (newsletter, non-essential cookies), our legitimate interests (site security and aggregate analytics), and to take steps you request (responding to your messages). You may withdraw consent at any time.
Advertising and third parties
We work with advertising partners (which may include networks such as Outbrain, Taboola, MGID or similar) that may set cookies to measure and personalise ads. These partners process data under their own privacy policies. Non-essential and advertising cookies are only set after you consent via our cookie banner.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you have the right to access, correct, delete or port your data, to object to or restrict processing, and to withdraw consent. California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected and to opt out of its "sale" or "sharing" — we do not sell your personal information. To exercise any right, email [email protected].
Data retention & security
We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above, then delete or anonymise it. We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. Newsletter subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe.
Children
dreamirc is intended for adults and is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
