Privacy Policy

Last updated 30 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how SkyBlue Radio News collects, uses and protects your personal data when you use the Site or subscribe to our newsletter.

1. Who we are

SkyBlue Radio News is the data controller for the personal data described in this policy. To contact us about your data, email privacy@skyblueradio.com.

2. What we collect

  • Newsletter sign-ups: your email address, the date/time you subscribed, and a record of the consent wording you agreed to.
  • Usage data: anonymous, aggregated analytics such as page views and referrers. We store only a one-way hash of your IP address — never the raw address.

3. How we use it

We use your email solely to send you our newsletter and related updates. We use anonymous analytics to understand what content is popular and improve the Site. We do not sell your personal data.

4. Legal basis

We process your email on the basis of your consent, which you give by ticking the sign-up box. You can withdraw consent at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email.

5. Retention

We keep your subscription data until you unsubscribe, after which your address is marked inactive and removed from mailings.

6. Your rights

Under UK/EU data protection law you have the right to access, correct or erase your data, and to withdraw consent. To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@skyblueradio.com.

7. Cookies

We use essential cookies to keep the Site working (for example, to keep the live player and chat running as you browse). We do not use advertising-tracking cookies to profile you.

8. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time; the “last updated” date above reflects the latest version.
