Peptide Works Privacy Policy

Personal information and published privacy provisions

Scope of this privacy information

This page explains the privacy provisions published by Peptide Works for its official website, including enquiries, accounts, comments, cookies, embedded content, analytics and email marketing. It also explains the distinction between reading these information pages and using the separate features on the official shop. The published policy is available at Peptide Works Privacy Policy and GDPR Compliance.

The Contact Us page provided here contains contact information and a link to the official enquiry page. It does not contain an enquiry form. These information pages do not provide customer accounts, comments, image uploads, newsletter registration or a payment checkout. References below to those features describe the official website's published provisions where the relevant feature is used.

Following a link to the official enquiry page, account area or catalogue opens that destination. Any information submitted there is handled through that destination's services. Merely reading this policy does not submit a request, establish an account, opt you into a newsletter or begin a data-erasure process.

Forms and enquiries

The official policy says that first name, last name and email address are collected when a support request or general enquiry is submitted, so that Peptide Works can communicate with the person making the request. The live enquiry page also asks for a country and provides space for an order-related selection and a message.

The contact notice on that page states that the supplied details are used to contact the person in connection with the specific enquiry or order. The details entered in a message should relate to the matter for which assistance is being requested. An enquiry about a catalogue listing and an enquiry about an existing order can require different context, but neither is submitted from this information page.

The published privacy text describes personal data as stored in the official website's database. That statement concerns the official service. It should not be read as a description of a separate deployment's hosting, backups or server records. No retention period for general enquiries is specified in the source policy; the cookie durations below apply to the named cookies rather than to every category of personal information.

Comments

Where visitors leave comments on the official website, its policy says that the information shown in the comments form is collected. It also identifies the visitor's IP address and browser user-agent string as information used to help with spam detection. These provisions relate to the comment feature, which is not present on these information pages.

The policy describes an anonymised string generated from an email address, called a hash, which may be supplied to the Gravatar service to check whether the commenter uses it. After a comment is approved, the profile picture can be publicly visible in the context of that comment. The linked Gravatar service provider's privacy policy contains information about that separate service.

Uploaded media

The published policy advises anyone uploading an image to avoid including embedded location information, such as EXIF GPS data. Its explanation is that visitors can download an image and extract location data stored within it. This provision concerns information contained in the uploaded file, as well as what the image visibly shows.

There is no image-upload control on these information pages. If you use a media-upload feature elsewhere on the official website, the published media guidance remains relevant to the image being submitted. Reading an image already displayed on a page does not create an upload through this website.

Cookies described by the official policy

The source policy distinguishes several cookies by the activity that sets them. Comment convenience cookies, account login cookies and article-editing cookies serve different purposes and have different stated durations. The following table preserves those published distinctions. It does not mean that every visitor receives every listed cookie.

Published cookie purposes and durations
FeaturePublished purposePublished duration
Comment preferencesOptionally remembers name, email address and website for another comment.One year
Browser cookie checkChecks whether the browser accepts cookies; described as containing no personal data.Until the browser closes
Login informationRemembers login information for an account.Two days
Screen optionsRemembers screen display choices.One year
Remember MeExtends the period for which an account login persists.Two weeks
Article editingRecords the ID of the article just edited or published; described as containing no personal data.One day

The official policy also states that logging out removes the login cookies. Saving comment details is described as an opt-in convenience, allowing the same details to be reused when another comment is left. The article cookie relates to editing or publishing an article, rather than to simply reading one.

These static information pages do not implement the login, commenting or publishing features described in the table. Their own scripts do not set these cookies. The presence of links to the official shop does not create a local account or a local checkout session.

Embedded content and external resources

The official policy explains that articles may contain embedded videos, images, articles or other content from outside websites. It states that this content behaves as though the visitor had visited the originating website. An embedded service therefore needs to be considered separately from the surrounding page when reviewing privacy information.

The design of these information pages requests its existing fonts from Google Fonts. Those font resources are loaded from an external destination when available. This preserves the font-loading approach in the supplied Home, Service and About pages. It is separate from Google Analytics, and loading a font does not mean that an Analytics installation has been added.

Google Analytics

The official Peptide Works privacy policy states that Google Analytics is used to track visitors and that it uses cookies for that purpose. It describes the collected data as processed anonymously, says that the data-sharing setting is disabled and says that other Google services are not used in combination with the Analytics cookies. The policy also refers to a data-processing amendment.

Those are the published statements about the official site's configuration. Google Analytics has not been installed in these static information pages. This page does not independently certify the configuration or compliance of a separate website, and the source policy does not identify an Analytics cookie duration here.

Requests concerning personal data

The published policy includes provisions for anonymisation, erasure, access, portability, correction and complaints. These provisions describe processes associated with the official website and its administrator. This information page does not contain a data-request table or a self-service request tool. To raise a privacy enquiry, use the contact information page to reach the official enquiry destination.

Anonymisation

Under its section headed Freedom of Information request, the official policy describes selecting data that should be anonymised so it can no longer be linked to an email address. It assigns responsibility for acting on the request to the site owner and describes an email confirmation after anonymisation. The text here explains that published process; it does not itself show the personal data held for a visitor.

Erasure requests

The published erasure process begins with a request and an email confirmation step. After confirmation, the request is added to an administrator's requests table for review. Where the person has published posts or comments, the policy describes bringing that content into the process. It says an administrator can reassign or delete content and that comments can be made anonymous.

For a person without published content, the policy describes confirmation of the erasure request and a six-digit token to retain for possible recovery needs. It also describes an administrator manually adding a user to the requests table through an email search. These are descriptions of the source site's workflow, not a promise that an automated erasure tool runs on this page.

Access and portability

The official policy says a person can request a download of their data. It describes a double opt-in confirmation email followed by generation of an XML or JSON file. The download is sent by email and is described as expiring after 48 hours. That stated period concerns availability of the download; the policy does not present it as a general response deadline for all privacy enquiries.

Correction and complaints

The source also describes requests to rectify data or make a complaint. A double opt-in confirmation email is followed by addition of the request to a table for administrator handling. Questions about these processes, or requests relating to your personal data, can be sent to info@peptide-works.com.

Email marketing

The published policy says that email marketing and newsletters are used to provide updates. It identifies name and email address as the information retained for that purpose and says each marketing message includes an opt-out notice. An enquiry about an order should be distinguished from a newsletter preference; the contact notice addresses communication concerning the enquiry or order itself.

No newsletter registration is provided on these static pages. For an existing marketing subscription, refer to the opt-out information in the relevant message. If clarification is needed about a communication received from Peptide Works, identify that communication when contacting the business.
