No tracking, no cookie banner
This site doesn't use analytics, advertising or tracking of any kind, and sets no cookies of its own. The only thing it stores on your device is your cart, described below. That is essential to a service you've asked for, so the law doesn't require us to ask your consent first.
Your cart
When you add something to your cart, the items and quantities are saved in your browser's local storage, so the cart is still there if you move between pages or come back later. It is kept only on your device. We never receive it, and it contains nothing that identifies you.
It is cleared when you go to checkout, when you remove the items, or after 24 hours without a change. You can also clear it at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.
Checkout and orders
When you check out, your cart is handed to the Goudie Works Store, and checkout, payment and delivery happen there. The store is run by Goudie Works Ltd, the company behind Morning Chorus Records, and sells its other work too. It runs on Shopify, which processes your order details on our behalf. How that information is used is set out in the store'sprivacy policy, alongside itsrefund,shipping andterms of service policies.
Download codes
When you enter a download code, we record one entry: what you typed (up to 40 characters), the time, and the country your connection comes from. If the code works, we also note the release and how many times you then downloaded the MP3 files and the WAV files. To tie those downloads to your entry, the page holds a random reference while it is open. It isn't saved on your device and means nothing once you leave. That way we can spot codes that are hard to read or type, and see which formats people want. We don't record your IP address. The record is kept in a database run for us by Cloudflare, so we can see how releases are doing. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in understanding our sales and making the codes work.
The files themselves are delivered from Cloudflare R2 storage through a link that expires after a few minutes. Like any host, Cloudflare processes your IP address to send you the file.
Videos
Some release pages include a video. It doesn't load until you press play, so YouTube receives nothing from simply viewing the page. Once you press play, the video loads from YouTube's privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com), and Google's privacy policy applies to what YouTube does from then on.
Hosting
The site is hosted by Vercel. Like any web host, Vercel processes the technical details of each request, including your IP address, to deliver the pages and keep the service secure. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in running a working, secure website.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, and ask us to correct it, delete it, or stop or restrict using it. You can also object to how we use it. Get in touch using the details above.
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office atico.org.uk/make-a-complaintor on 0303 123 1113.
