Privacy policy

Who we are

QuoteGeek ("we") is operated by the QuoteGeek team, UK. Contact us via the corrections form on every page.

What we process and why

• Reference content about public figures (names, public identifiers, attributed quotes, verification findings) -- lawful basis: legitimate interests (a legitimate interests assessment is on record; a summary is available on request). We publish only what public sources support, and we correct fast.
• Corrections and complaints you send us (your name, contact details, message) -- lawful basis: legitimate interests (operating a corrections process). Kept 24 months, then deleted.
• API keys (your email address) -- lawful basis: contract (providing the API service).
• Server logs (IP, user agent) -- security and abuse prevention; rotated within 30 days.

What we don't do

No advertising cookies, no tracking pixels, no sale of personal data. Analytics are cookieless and aggregate. Some outbound book/film links are affiliate links -- they are labelled where they appear and involve no data sharing beyond the click.

Your rights

Access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, portability. Use the corrections form; we respond within one calendar month. Erasure requests concerning pages about public statements get a documented public-interest assessment -- we tell you the outcome and reasoning either way. You may complain to the ICO (ico.org.uk).

Recipients and transfers

Hosting and CDN suppliers under standard processing terms; no other recipients. Retention is as stated per category above.
