2. What Data We Collect

We collect minimal personal data. Specifically:

• Purchase data — when you buy a kit, your payment and contact details are processed entirely by PayPal. We do not handle, store, or have access to your card details. PayPal may share your name and email address with us solely to confirm and fulfil your order.
• Email address — if you contact us by email, we will store your email address in order to respond to your enquiry.
• Server logs — our web hosting provider automatically records standard server log data including IP addresses and pages visited. This data is used for security and performance purposes and is not used to identify individuals.

3. What We Do Not Collect

We do not use:

• Cookies of our own — this website sets no cookies
• Analytics tools such as Google Analytics
• Advertising or tracking pixels
• Social media trackers
• Live chat tools that collect personal data

4. PayPal

All payments are processed by PayPal. When you click the Buy Now button, you are directed to PayPal's own platform to complete your purchase. PayPal's handling of your personal data is governed by PayPal's Privacy Policy, which we encourage you to read.

We receive confirmation of successful payments from PayPal, which may include your name and email address for order fulfilment purposes only.

5. How We Use Your Data

Any personal data we receive is used solely to:

• Fulfil your order and provide you with your purchased kit
• Respond to any support or customer service enquiries
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not use your data for marketing, profiling, or any purpose beyond fulfilling your order and responding to your communications.

6. How Long We Keep Your Data

We retain order-related correspondence for up to 7 years in accordance with UK tax and accounting requirements. Email enquiries are retained for as long as necessary to resolve the matter.

7. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties, except:

• PayPal — as our payment processor
• Legal authorities — if required to do so by law

8. Your Rights Under UK GDPR

Under UK data protection law you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data where we have no legal obligation to retain it
• Object to our processing of your data
• Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at hello@murdermysteryhost.com. We will respond within 30 days.

9. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect any personal data we hold. Our website is served over HTTPS. Payment data is never transmitted to or stored on our servers — all payment processing takes place on PayPal's secure platform.
