RingBoxer (“we”, “our”, “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices available to you. This notice applies to visitors to ringboxer.com and users of our services.

Information We Collect

Information you provide: When you contact us, sign up for newsletters, comment, or submit a pitch, you may provide your name, email address, phone number and message content. For contributions or guest submissions we may keep your biographical information and samples of your work.

Automatically collected information: We collect technical data such as IP address, browser type, operating system, referral pages, pages viewed and timestamps. This helps us understand traffic patterns and improve the site.

Cookies and similar technologies: We use cookies, local storage and pixels to personalise content, remember preferences, and measure site performance. You can manage cookie preferences via your browser or our cookie banner where provided.

How We Use Information

  • To provide and maintain the site and its features.
  • To send newsletters or other communications if you opt in.
  • To respond to inquiries, pitches and comments.
  • To personalise content and recommend articles.
  • To detect, prevent and respond to technical issues or fraud.
  • To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

Legal Basis for Processing (UK/EU)

If you are in the UK or the EU, our legal bases for processing personal data include your consent (where provided), performance of a contract, our legitimate interests (e.g. site operation, fraud prevention and communicating with readers), and compliance with legal obligations.

Third Parties and Sharing

We may share data with third-party service providers who support our operations, such as:

  • Hosting and infrastructure providers
  • Analytics and performance services (e.g. Google Analytics or similar)
  • Email and newsletter platforms
  • Advertising networks and affiliate partners
These partners are authorised to use your personal data only as necessary to provide the services we request. We do not sell your personal information.

Advertising & Analytics

We use advertising networks to display ads and may allow these partners to use cookies and tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing behaviour across sites for ad personalisation. You can opt out of targeted advertising through industry opt-out pages or by adjusting your preferences in our cookie banner where available.

Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy, to comply with legal obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. Technical logs and analytics are retained in anonymised or aggregated form where possible.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights including:

  • The right to access the personal data we hold about you.
  • The right to rectify inaccurate data.
  • The right to request deletion of your personal data.

Children

The site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe we have collected data from a child under 13, contact privacy@ringboxer.com and we will take steps to delete the information.

Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to the site.

International Transfers

Data may be processed in countries other than your own. When this happens we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or processing only with trusted providers.

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of the policy. Significant changes may be communicated via the site or by email to subscribers.
