Privacy Policy — Hykalix

Hykalix is an educational information portal. We do not collect, store, or process personal data as part of our ordinary operations. The protection of visitor privacy is a foundational commitment of this portal.

1. Who We Are

Hykalix operates as an independent educational resource. Our registered address for correspondence is:

14 Regent Street, London, SW1Y 4PQ, United Kingdom.

Contact email: [email protected]

For the purposes of UK data protection law (the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018), where any data processing occurs, Hykalix acts as the data controller.

2. What Data We Collect

2.1 Passively Collected Data

Hykalix does not use analytics software, tracking pixels, advertising cookies, or any third-party data collection tools. No data about your visit — including page views, session duration, device information, or IP address — is passively recorded or stored by this portal.

2.2 Data Provided Voluntarily via Contact Form

If you choose to submit our contact form, the form collects only:

Your email address
The content of your message

This information is submitted solely for the purpose of responding to general content-related enquiries. It is not stored in a database, not processed for marketing, and not transmitted to any third party. No name, telephone number, or other identifying information is requested or collected.

2.3 Cookies

This site uses only a single essential cookie for recording your consent response to our cookie banner. No tracking, analytical, or advertising cookies are set. For full details, see our Cookie Policy.

3. How We Use Information

Any information submitted via the contact form is used exclusively to provide a response to your enquiry. We do not use it for:

Marketing or promotional communications
Profiling or automated decision-making
Sale or transfer to third parties
Analytics or behavioural tracking

We do not sell, rent, or share any personal information. We do not use personal data for marketing purposes. This portal has no commercial transactions and generates no revenue from visitor data.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Where contact form submissions are received, the legal basis for any temporary handling of that information is legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) — specifically, the legitimate interest in responding to content-related enquiries submitted voluntarily by the individual. No special category data is collected or processed.

5. Data Retention

Enquiry correspondence is not retained beyond the period necessary to respond to the enquiry. We do not maintain a permanent record of contact form submissions. No database of contacts, subscribers, or enquirers is maintained by this portal.

6. Third-Party Services

This website:

Does not embed social media tracking scripts
Does not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or any similar analytics or advertising SDK
Does not use third-party comment or review systems
Loads Google Fonts via CSS import — this may result in a standard browser request to Google's servers to retrieve font files. No personal data beyond a standard IP request is involved in this process.

7. Your Rights Under UK Data Protection Law

As a UK data subject, you have the following rights:

Right of Access: You may request a copy of any personal data we hold relating to you.
Right to Rectification: You may request correction of inaccurate data.
Right to Erasure: You may request deletion of your data.
Right to Object: You may object to processing based on legitimate interests.
Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that processing be limited in certain circumstances.

Given the minimal data we hold, most of these rights are effectively already met by our default practices. To make any data rights request, contact us at: [email protected]

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk if you believe your data has been handled improperly.

8. Security

This website is a static HTML site with no server-side data storage. The absence of a database or user account system means there is no personal data at risk of a data breach in the conventional sense. Standard web hosting security practices are applied to protect site integrity.

9. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The date at the top of this page will be updated accordingly. Material changes will be noted prominently.
