Controller and scope
2B I, reachable at [email protected], is the controller for personal information processed through 2b-i.com. This notice applies to readers in the United Kingdom, European Economic Area and other locations where our site is accessed.
Information we collect
We may receive limited technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, page requests, referral information, cookie identifiers, and aggregated analytics. If you email us or subscribe, we may receive the details you choose to send, such as your name and email address.
Why and how we use it
We use information to operate the site, answer messages, prevent abuse, understand aggregated readership, improve editorial pages and send requested communications. Our lawful bases may include legitimate interests in running a secure publication, performance of a request you make, consent where required, and legal obligations.
Cookies and affiliate tracking
We and service providers may use cookies or similar technologies for essential site functions, aggregate analytics and affiliate attribution. Affiliate links can contain tracking parameters so a merchant or network can attribute a referred purchase. You can control many cookies through browser settings; blocking them may affect site features or attribution.
Sharing, international transfers and third parties
We may share data with hosting, analytics, email and affiliate service providers only where they need it to provide services. External merchants and linked websites apply their own privacy notices. Processing may involve transfers outside the UK or EEA, with appropriate safeguards where required. We do not sell personal information.
Retention, rights and complaints
We keep information only for as long as needed for the purpose collected, legal obligations or dispute resolution. Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to or port your information, or withdraw consent. Contact us first; UK readers can also contact the ICO and EU readers their local supervisory authority.
Children, security and updates
2B I is not directed to children. We use reasonable technical and organisational measures, but no online system can promise absolute security. We may update this policy when our practices change and will post the new version here.
