Scope and contact

This Privacy Policy explains how Roy Revill’s Software Junkie handles personal information collected through royrevill.com, its newsletter, and related forms and communications.

For questions or privacy requests, contact mail@royrevill.com and identify the publication and email address involved.

Information you provide

We collect the information you submit when you subscribe, contact us, answer a survey, or use available community or business submission features.

This can include your email address, name, message, survey answers, and information you choose to include in a listing, event, comment, or advertising inquiry.

Please do not submit passwords, payment card details, or sensitive personal information through general contact forms or public comments.

Technical information and email activity

Our website and newsletter service providers may process technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, timestamps, pages requested, and delivery or error logs to provide and protect the services.

Where email engagement measurement is enabled, tracking images and tagged links can report email opens and link clicks; image blocking, privacy features, and automated scanning can affect those measurements.

Cookies and similar technologies may be used by enabled website features to remember preferences, maintain sessions, measure usage, or support embedded services.

How information is used

We use information to deliver the newsletter you request, manage subscriptions and preferences, respond to inquiries, process submissions, understand readership, improve content, and prevent abuse.

Business contact information submitted for a public listing or event is intended for publication; avoid including personal information you do not want publicly accessible.

Sharing and service providers

We do not sell subscriber information or give subscriber lists to advertisers.

Ads or sponsored messages in our own newsletter do not by themselves give the advertiser your subscriber details.

Service providers that support newsletter delivery, hosting, subscription management, analytics, or security may process information to operate these services.

We may disclose information when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect legal rights, safety, or the security of our services.

If you independently submit information to an advertiser or another website, that recipient’s privacy practices apply.

Your choices and requests

You can unsubscribe using the unsubscribe link in a newsletter or by contacting us at the address above.

You may also contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, or to ask about other rights available under applicable law.

We may need to verify your request and may retain information where legally permitted or required, including a limited suppression record to avoid emailing an unsubscribed address.

Browser controls can limit cookies, and email settings can limit remote images; these controls may affect some features and may not prevent every form of engagement measurement.

Retention and security

We retain personal information for the purposes described here, including maintaining your subscription, handling requests, keeping necessary business records, and meeting legal obligations.

Retention needs differ by information type; you may contact us to ask about your records.

No website, email system, or storage method can guarantee complete security; please avoid sending sensitive information by ordinary email.

Third-party services and children

Links, embedded media, advertisers, and external services have their own privacy practices; interacting with them may disclose technical information or information you choose to submit.

Our services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under 13.

If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and address it.

Policy updates

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services, practices, or applicable requirements.

The revised date will appear on this page, and additional notice or consent will be provided when required by law.
