Privacy notice

Last updated: 28 May 2026

Who we are

Brightbark Cranberry Ltd ("we", "us") is a company registered in Scotland (Company No. SC890148). Our registered address is 29 McBaith Way, Dunfermline, KY11 8YY. We are the controller for the personal data collected through this website, www.brightbarkcranberry.co.uk.

If you have any questions about this notice or about how we use your data, contact us at privacy@brightbarkcranberry.co.uk.

What data we collect, and why

At present, the only personal data we collect through this website is the information you choose to give us when you complete our contact form to make an enquiry. This is typically your name, your email address, and whatever details you include in your message.

We use this information only to respond to your enquiry and to correspond with you about it. We do not use it for marketing, and we do not add you to any mailing list.

Our lawful basis

Under UK data protection law (UK GDPR), we must have a "lawful basis" for using your personal data. For handling enquiries, our lawful basis is legitimate interests — specifically, our interest in responding to people who contact us about our services. You can find out more about lawful bases on the ICO's website.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiry correspondence for 12 months after our last contact with you, unless your enquiry leads to an ongoing relationship, in which case we keep it for as long as needed for that purpose and any legal obligations (for example, tax affairs). After that we delete it.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data or share it for marketing.

Our website is hosted on Squarespace, and contact form submissions are processed and stored through Squarespace's systems on our behalf. Squarespace acts as our data processor for this. Squarespace is a US-based company, and your data may be transferred to and stored in the United States.

International transfers

Where your data is transferred outside the UK (for example, to Squarespace in the United States), that transfer is protected by appropriate safeguards. Squarespace uses the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK's International Data Transfer Addendum as the legal basis for these transfers, and complies with the UK Extension to the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

Cookies

We have configured our Squarespace site so that it does not place non-essential or analytics cookies, and does not collect visitor IP addresses. Only the strictly necessary cookies required to make the site work are used.

Your rights

UK GDPR gives you rights over personal data that relates to you. You can:

·       ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you;

·       ask us to correct it if it is inaccurate;

·       ask us to erase it where we no longer have a legitimate reason to keep it;

·       ask us to restrict or object to how we use it.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@brightbarkcranberry.co.uk. We may need to confirm your identity first.

Complaints

If you have concerns about how we handle your personal data, please raise them with us first so we can try to put things right. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection. See www.ico.org.uk.
