Privacy policy

Last updated 5 October 2026

This explains what we collect when you join the Bola early access list, why, and what you can do about it.

Who we are

Bola (BolaOS) is run by Robin Cunningham, who is the data controller for the information described here. Formal company registration is in progress, and a postal address will be added here once it's complete.

For anything to do with your data, email admin@bolaos.co.uk.

What we collect

When you join the early access list:

Like any website, our hosting provider also keeps short-lived technical logs (such as IP addresses) to keep the site secure and working. This site doesn't use analytics or tracking.

How we use it

We use your email only to tell you when Bola opens to clubs. We do this because you asked us to (your consent, UK GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). You can withdraw that at any time by emailing us, and we'll delete your details.

We never sell your information, and we don't use it for advertising.

Who we share it with

We use a small number of service providers to run the site. They only process data on our instructions:

These are US-based companies. Where your information is handled outside the UK, it's protected by legal safeguards approved for UK data, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or the UK Extension to the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

How long we keep it

We keep your details for up to 12 months from when you sign up, and then delete them automatically. You can ask us to delete them sooner at any time.

Cookies

This site doesn't set any cookies, so there's no cookie banner.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you can ask us to:

Email admin@bolaos.co.uk and we'll respond within one month. There's no charge.

If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We'd appreciate the chance to put things right first, so please get in touch with us too.

Children

The early access list is for adults who run or help run sports clubs. It isn't intended for children, and we don't knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

We'll update this page if anything changes, and the date at the top will show when it was last revised.
