Sean Water Views is an independent review platform. We collect and handle personal information only to the extent needed to publish verified guest feedback, respond to enquiries, and keep the site running reliably. This policy explains what data we process, why we process it, and the choices you have over your information.
When you submit a property review, send a message through our contact form, or sign up for a newsletter, we receive the details you provide. This typically includes your name, email address, and the content of your message or review. We also collect limited technical data automatically, such as browser type, device type, and pages visited, to understand how the site is used and to keep it secure.
The information you submit through forms is used to respond to your enquiry, verify a review submission, or send updates you have requested. Technical data helps us improve site performance, diagnose errors, and understand which coastal regions and property types are most relevant to our readers. We do not sell personal information to third parties.
We use cookies to remember basic preferences and to collect anonymised analytics about page views and visitor behaviour. This helps us see which beachfront guides and property reviews are useful. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not function as smoothly as a result.
We rely on a small number of service providers to host the website, manage email delivery, and process form submissions. These providers act on our behalf and are contractually required to protect your data. We do not share information with advertisers or unrelated parties.
Review submissions and contact messages are kept only as long as needed to maintain the integrity of our published content or to resolve an ongoing enquiry. Analytics data is retained in aggregated form and cannot be used to identify you personally.
You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you, ask for corrections, request deletion, or withdraw any consent you have given. Where applicable under GDPR or CCPA, you may also request a portable copy of your data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Sean Water Views publishes only verified guest feedback and editorial assessments based on in-person property inspections. We do not make misleading claims, create fake urgency, or present unverified endorsements as genuine. Every review reflects the honest opinion of the person who stayed at the property, and our editorial team clearly distinguishes between guest feedback and our own assessments.
