Information used by this service

• Accounts: username, email address, a salted password hash, account role and creation time. Plain-text passwords are not saved.
• Registration records: the terms version accepted, privacy notice version acknowledged and server-recorded timestamps. These records do not include an extra IP address or device fingerprint.
• Security: random session identifiers, their server-side hashes, CSRF tokens and expiry times. IP addresses are used in temporary authentication rate-limit counters. The hosting provider may also maintain operational logs.
• Postcode search: the postcode you enter is sent to Postcodes.io to find the ward. The application does not save a postcode-search history or associate searches with accounts. Request URLs may appear in infrastructure logs, depending on hosting configuration.
• Map tiles: your browser contacts CARTO and sends connection information such as your IP address, browser details, site origin and requested map tiles.

Your choices and rights

You can use maps and postcode search without an account. Subject to the circumstances and applicable law, you may request access, correction, erasure, restriction or portability of your information, and object to processing. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting earlier lawful processing. Acknowledging this notice does not waive any rights.

Contact the controller above to exercise your rights or raise a concern. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office. This app does not make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects through automated profiling.
