Privacy Policy

Updated: 7 September 2026

This policy covers personal information associated with visiting ceciliaprize.com and reading Cecilia Prize’s international dating content. It explains the purposes of processing, the role of website providers and the choices available to readers. Cecilia Prize’s content is intended for adults aged 18 and over.

Information associated with a visit

Your browser sends technical information when it requests a page. This can include an IP address, browser and device information, the requested address, request time and a referring page where your browser supplies one. Website and hosting logs can record this information to deliver content, identify errors and address malicious or disruptive activity.

Reading an article does not require you to supply a dating profile, relationship history, identity document or payment details. Please do not include intimate material, information identifying children or documents about another person in an unsolicited communication.

If you choose to send information through a contact method identified on the Contact page, that communication can include the details you supply and information needed to handle the request. A request about an article does not authorize unrelated marketing.

Why information is processed

Technical information supports delivery, reliability and security of the website. These activities serve the legitimate interests of operating and protecting the site where that basis is available under applicable law, taking account of readers’ rights. Information in a voluntary enquiry is limited to understanding and addressing its subject, documenting relevant action and meeting applicable obligations.

Where processing relies on consent, the request must identify its purpose and give you a meaningful choice. Browsing does not provide blanket permission for advertising, unrelated disclosures or processing sensitive relationship information. See the Marketing Practices and E-Consent policies.

Hosting and other recipients

Hostinger provides website hosting. Hosting systems process technical requests and can hold operational records and backup copies. Access by people or providers acting for the website must be limited to the service, security or support purpose that justifies it.

Information may also need to be disclosed in response to a valid legal obligation or to address a substantiated threat to rights or safety. Disclosure must be proportionate to that purpose. A link to another website does not by itself authorize Cecilia Prize to send that provider your enquiry or contact details.

External websites apply their own privacy practices when you visit them. The location of a reader does not establish where a hosting provider processes information. Any international transfer remains subject to the safeguards and information requirements that apply to the processing.

Cookies, retention and security

The Cookie Policy explains browser storage and consent principles. Technical request logs and cookies are different mechanisms; declining optional cookies does not prevent the server from receiving a page request.

Retention is limited by the purpose of the record. Operational information is needed for delivery, fault investigation and security; enquiry records for handling their subject and relevant follow-up. A documented legal requirement or unresolved security incident can justify longer retention of related material. Backup copies follow the recovery lifecycle and should not be repurposed for unrelated use.

Reasonable access controls and secure handling are required, but no online transmission or storage system can be described as risk-free.

Your rights and further information

Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to access, correct or erase information, restrict or object to processing, receive portable data and withdraw consent. Withdrawal does not retrospectively invalidate processing based on valid consent. You may also complain to the relevant data protection authority.

Consult the Contact page for published contact information. Share only what is necessary to identify a privacy concern. The date above identifies this version; material changes to the purposes described require an updated explanation and, where necessary, a separate choice.
