Dunmorrowa hall of free tales
The fine print, in plain words

Privacy policy

What Dunmorrow keeps, why, and what you can ask us to do about it.

Here is how personal data is treated when you call in at dunmorrow.com, set out with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Irish data protection law in mind. In brief: the hall gathers almost nothing, keeps no accounts, and reads your email only so it can answer it.

I. The controller

Personal data handled through this website is controlled by the operator of dunmorrow.com. For anything touching on this policy, write to [email protected].

II. Notes kept in your browser

Two short notes are written to your browser’s local storage by our own script:

They sit on your device until you clear your browsing data, and they never travel to us. The cookie policy goes into more detail.

III. When you write to us

An email to the hall, whether typed yourself or drafted with our contact form, reaches us with your name, your address, your words and anything you attach. Its sole use is answering you and handling any follow-up. Once the conversation is finished and nothing further is needed, the message is deleted.

IV. Why we are allowed to

V. Things we never do

No accounts, no player profiles, no record of how you play, no selling of data and no automated decisions about you. We do not knowingly gather anything from people under 18.

VI. The games in their frames

Every tale is loaded from its third-party developer’s own servers. As it loads, your browser talks to those servers directly, passing on your IP address, browser type and similar connection details, and the game may leave its own play data on your device. That processing is governed by the developer’s privacy terms rather than by Dunmorrow.

VII. Fonts and server records

Cormorant and Karla, the two typefaces on these pages, are fetched from Google Fonts, which means Google sees your IP address when your browser asks for them. The server that hosts our pages may also keep routine technical records (an IP address, a time, the page requested) for security and troubleshooting, and kept only briefly.

VIII. Who else may see data

Personal data is passed on only when running the site requires it, such as to whichever company carries our email, or when the law demands it. Should any such provider handle data in a country outside the EEA, it is expected to rely on a transfer mechanism the GDPR recognises, for instance the EU standard contractual clauses.

IX. What you can ask of us

Your rightIn practice
AccessRequest a copy of the personal data we have about you.
RectificationHave anything wrong put right.
ErasureHave your data deleted.
Restriction and objectionLimit our use of your data, or object to it.
PortabilityReceive your data in a format you can take elsewhere, where this applies.
Withdrawing consentTake back consent at any point; anything done before that stays lawful.

Send any request to [email protected]. Under the GDPR we must respond within a month, and we may first check that the request is genuinely yours.

X. Raising a concern

We would like the chance to fix a problem first, so do tell us. You are always free, though, to go straight to the Data Protection Commission, which supervises data protection in Ireland: dataprotection.ie.

XI. When this page changes

Should our handling of data change, for instance if analytics were ever introduced, this page and the date above will be revised before the change begins.
