Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Scout Gateway is an early-stage marketplace intelligence project founded by Giorgio Mitchell. You can contact us at partnerships@scoutgateway.co.uk.

2. Information we currently collect

The current website does not offer user accounts, checkout, product uploads, in-app marketplace connections or an on-site contact form. If you contact us by email, we may receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, organisation and message content.

3. Technical information

Our hosting and infrastructure providers may process limited technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, including IP addresses, request metadata, device/browser details, security events and server logs.

4. How we use information

We may use correspondence and technical information to respond to enquiries, discuss marketplace or technology partnerships, secure and operate the site, maintain reasonable business records, and comply with applicable law.

5. Cookies and analytics

The current site does not intentionally use behavioural advertising cookies or marketing trackers. If analytics, account features or other tracking technologies are added in future, we will update this policy and provide any notices or choices required by law.

6. Sharing and service providers

We do not sell personal information. Information may be processed by service providers that support our hosting, email or security, or disclosed where required by law or necessary to protect legitimate rights and interests.

7. Retention

We aim to keep correspondence only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was received, business record-keeping, legal obligations or dispute resolution.

8. Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security.

9. Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights regarding personal information held about you, including access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection. Requests can be sent to our contact email.

10. Future product features

Before launching features that process user accounts, product images, marketplace account data, seller information, analytics or other personal information, Scout Gateway intends to update this policy to explain those activities in appropriate detail.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Scout Gateway develops. The latest version will be published on this page with an updated revision date.
