Privacy Policy
Last updated: 12 April 2026
Who we are
St Andrews Flats (standrewsflats.uk) is a free letting alert service for students at the University of St Andrews. We are operated as an independent service. For privacy queries, contact us at: [email protected]
What data we collect
When you subscribe to letting alerts, we collect:
- Your email address
- Your alert preferences (frequency, price filters, bedroom filters)
- The date and time you subscribed
We do not collect your name, phone number, payment information, or any other personal data. We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising.
We use basic web analytics (such as page view counts) to understand how the site is used. This does not identify individual visitors.
Why we collect it
We collect your email address solely to send you the letting alerts you requested. We do not use it for marketing, do not share it with third parties, and do not sell it. Ever.
How long we keep it
We keep your email address and preferences for as long as you remain subscribed. When you unsubscribe, your data is deleted within 30 days.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate data
- Delete your data (unsubscribe at any time using the link in any alert email)
- Object to processing
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected].
Unsubscribing
Every alert email contains a one-click unsubscribe link. You can unsubscribe at any time. We will not send you further emails after you unsubscribe.
Changes to this policy
If we make significant changes to this policy, we will update the date above. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
