Privacy

What the Chainline website keeps about you, why it keeps it and how to have it removed.

This page explains what the Chainline website keeps about you, why it keeps it and how to have it removed. It is short because we keep little.

What the site keeps

  • Your account. The name, username and email address you give when you join, and your password, stored only as a one-way hash that nobody can read back.
  • What you post. Threads, replies, event replies and the points and badges they earn. Posts in public areas can be read by anyone who visits, signed in or not.
  • A session cookie. It keeps you signed in while you use the site and ends when you sign out or close the browser.

What we do not do

We do not sell or share your details and we do not show advertising. Your email address is used only for the site’s own messages and, if you sign up for it, the monthly ride sheet.

Messages you send us

When you write to us through the contact page, your name, email address and message go to the committee by email. We use them to reply to you and for nothing else.

Seeing, correcting or removing your data

You can change your details on your profile page at any time. To get a copy of what the site holds about you, or to have your account and posts removed, write to the committee and we will do it within a month.

Terms

Using the site means agreeing to a few plain terms. The house rules cover how we treat each other; these cover the site itself.

House rules

Chainline works because people are generous with what they know. These rules are short on purpose. Read them once before you post.
