This explains what personal data Radar Gauge (Tim Fernando, sole trader) collects, why, and who processes it. Questions: radargauge@timfernando.com.
What I collect
- Waitlist: your email address and, optionally, first name.
- Orders: your name, email and shipping address, and payment details (handled by Stripe — I never see your full card number).
- Personalisation: an optional display name for your device, and an optional approximate location (a coarse ~½ km geohash, not a precise address) used to pre-centre your device's radar.
Where your data lives
Your payment, order and personalisation details are held on your Stripepayment record. I also keep a copy of the order details in Notion so I can build, pack and ship it. The processors I use are:
- Stripe — payments and the order/customer record.
- Resend — the waitlist and order/shipping emails.
- Notion — my build and fulfilment records. This holds the device build record (unit status, device id and a link to the Stripe payment) and an order record with your name, email, shipping address, any display name you chose and, until your unit ships, your preset location.
- Vercel — website hosting.
Some of these may process data outside the UK under appropriate safeguards.
Your preset location is deleted after setup
If you choose to preset your device's location, that location is used only to set up your device. It is held as a coarse geohash on your Stripe order record and, until your unit ships, on the matching Notion order record. It is deleted from both once your unit has shipped. It is never used for marketing and never shared.
Why I use your data (lawful bases)
- Waitlist emails: your consent (withdraw any time via the unsubscribe link).
- Fulfilling your order: performance of our contract.
- Order-related emails (receipt, personalisation, shipping): performance of our contract.
Retention
Order records are kept as long as needed for the sale, support and legal/accounting obligations. The preset location is deleted once your unit has shipped (see above). You can unsubscribe from the waitlist at any time.
Your rights
You have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict use of your personal data, and to complain to the ICO (ico.org.uk). To exercise any of these, email radargauge@timfernando.com.
