Effective date: 14 December 2025

This Privacy & Cookies Policy applies between you (the user/participant) and BARR2148 LIMITED, the owner and provider of the website at www.senshin2148.com (the “Website”) and the Service known as The Infinity Project (the “Service”).

Controller: BARR2148 LIMITED (Company No. 15182433), 20 Ashfield Road, Leicester, England, LE2 1LA
Contact: senshin@barr2148.com

We take privacy seriously. This Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, secure, and retain personal data, and how we use cookies and similar technologies.

This Policy should be read alongside our Terms and other policies published in the Website footer.

Privacy Policy

1) Key definitions

Personal Data: information relating to an identified or identifiable person.
Data Protection Laws: the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018, and where applicable the EU GDPR and other international data protection laws.
Cookies: small text files placed on your device by the Website.
Participant / You: any person who visits the Website or participates in the Service.
Public Archive / Private Archive: the two visibility options described in the Terms.

2) Scope

This Policy applies to the actions of BARR2148 LIMITED and participants in relation to www.senshin2148.com and the Service. It does not extend to external websites linked from our Website. You should review the privacy and cookie notices of any external sites you visit.

3) What we collect

We collect only what we need to operate the Service lawfully and securely.

A) Information you provide directly

Depending on your participation and your choices, this may include:

Name
Country
Image(s)
Ideas / written content / creative submissions
Your selected archive type (Public Archive or Private Archive)
Communications you send us (for example, via email or contact form)

No account creation is required to participate.

B) Payment information (if fees apply)

Payments (if enabled) may be processed by third-party payment providers. We do not receive or store full card details. We typically receive confirmations and limited payment metadata necessary for accounting, fraud prevention, and support.

C) Data collected automatically

When you use the Website, we may collect technical data such as:

IP address, device type, browser, operating system
referring pages, timestamps, pages visited, and interactions
cookie data (see Cookies Policy below)

4) Public Archive vs Private Archive (important)

Your visibility choice controls what is displayed publicly:

Public Archive: your details and Submissions are publicly visible.
Private Archive: only your name and country are displayed publicly. Your other Submissions are not publicly displayed.

If you choose Public Archive, your content may be indexed by search engines and copied or shared by third parties. Once content is public, we cannot control further distribution outside our Website.

5) Lawful bases & how we use your data

We process personal data under one or more lawful bases such as performance of contract, legitimate interests, legal obligation, and consent (where required).

We use your data to:

operate the Service and display archive entries according to your chosen archive type (contract/legitimate interests)
respond to enquiries, support requests, and removal requests (legitimate interests/contract)
maintain Website security and prevent abuse or fraud (legitimate interests/legal obligation)
comply with legal, regulatory, and accounting obligations (legal obligation)

Marketing: We do not run participant-to-participant communications and we do not share your data for third-party marketing. If we send any marketing messages, we will do so only where permitted by law and you can opt out at any time.

6) No data sharing (your service rule)

We do not sell, rent, or share participant Submissions with third parties for marketing or advertising.

We may use essential service providers (for example hosting, security, email delivery, and payment processing where applicable) strictly as needed to run the Website and Service. These providers act under our instructions and are not permitted to use your personal data for their own purposes.

We may disclose information if required by law (for example to regulators or law enforcement).

7) International transfers

If personal data is transferred outside the UK/EU, we rely on appropriate safeguards (such as adequacy regulations, Standard Contractual Clauses, or other lawful mechanisms) where required.

8) Data security

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including access controls and secure transmission where available (such as HTTPS/SSL). No online service can guarantee absolute security. If you suspect misuse, loss, or unauthorised access, contact senshin@barr2148.com.

9) Data retention

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary to operate the Service and meet legal, regulatory, tax, and accounting obligations.

Archive entries are retained until you request removal or we remove them for legal/policy reasons.
Backup systems may retain data for limited periods consistent with our security and continuity practices.

10) Your rights

Subject to legal limits and verification, you may have rights to:

access your personal data
rectify inaccurate data
erase data (where applicable)
restrict or object to processing
data portability (where applicable)
withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

To exercise your rights, email senshin@barr2148.com. We may request proof of identity to protect participants.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact your local data protection authority. In the UK this is the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

11) Removal requests (complete deletion)

You can request complete removal of your profile (Public or Private) by emailing senshin@barr2148.com.

Removal means we will delete your profile from the Service and stop displaying it. If your content has been copied or indexed elsewhere (especially from the Public Archive), we cannot guarantee deletion from third parties outside our control.

12) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. Changes take effect upon posting on www.senshin2148.com. Please review it regularly.
