Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 November 2026

UK Marriage Bereau is responsible for personal information handled through its matchmaking service at ukmarriagebereau.com. This policy explains how we use your information and the choices available to you.

Information you choose to share

You may share your name, contact details and message when you enquire. The website’s contact form prepares a WhatsApp message in your browser. It does not save your entries to a website database or send them to us until you send the message in WhatsApp. Please avoid including sensitive information in an initial enquiry.

How and why we use information

We use enquiry information to respond, discuss your preferences and take steps at your request before providing a service. We may rely on our legitimate interests to manage correspondence and protect the service, where those interests do not override your rights. Information needed for an agreed service is processed to perform that agreement. We also process information where needed to meet legal obligations.

Profiles, photographs and sensitive details

Religion and some matchmaking preferences may reveal special category information. We request explicit consent before processing such information for matchmaking. We require separate confirmation of profile publication permission, the right to use a photograph, and any advertising permission before publishing or promoting a profile. Enquiring does not grant those permissions. Approved profiles and photographs are publicly visible on this website, including religious information where explicit consent has been confirmed.

You can withdraw consent at any time by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal. We stop further use based on that consent and remove content we control, but cannot guarantee removal of copies independently saved by others.

Who receives information

Our website is hosted by Netlify, which may process technical information such as IP addresses and request logs for delivery, security and reliability. WhatsApp is provided by Meta and processes messages and technical information under its own privacy terms when you use its service. Google Fonts supplies the website typography and receives connection information, including your IP address, when your browser requests fonts.

We do not sell your personal information. We share profile information with prospective matches only within the permissions you give, or where disclosure is required by law. Providers may process information outside the UK; applicable transfer protections depend on their terms and relevant data protection requirements. Review the Netlify, WhatsApp and Google privacy policies for their practices.

Retention and security

We retain correspondence only as long as necessary to handle your enquiry, provide an agreed service, resolve disputes or meet legal duties. We periodically review information and delete or anonymise it when no longer needed. You can ask us about the retention of your information or request deletion. No internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.

Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or object to certain processing. You can withdraw consent where we rely on it. Contact us to exercise your rights; we may need to verify your identity. You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.

Adults only and policy changes

This service is for adults aged 18 or over. Please do not submit information about a child. We update this policy when our practices change and show the revision date above.
