Privacy & Legal

The Woolen Archive is designed to be compliant with privacy law in the United Kingdom (UK GDPR), the European Union (EU GDPR) and the United States (CCPA/CPRA). Last updated: October 2026.

Data we collect

The Woolen Archive is built to minimise data collection. We do not use third-party tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or fingerprinting. The only information stored on your device is a single anonymous preference flag in your browser's local storage recording your consent choice. We do not collect personal data unless you choose to contact us.

Cookies & consent

Under UK GDPR and EU GDPR, we show a non-intrusive consent bar on your first visit allowing you to accept or reject non-essential processing. Because we do not deploy tracking cookies, "rejecting" simply records your preference. You can revisit your choice at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this site.

Your rights

If you are in the UK, EEA or Switzerland, you have rights under UK GDPR / EU GDPR including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection and data portability. If you are a California resident, you have rights under the CCPA/CPRA including the right to know, delete, and opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. As we do not sell or share personal information, these rights are limited in practice. To exercise any right, contact Base44 support.

Affiliate disclosure

The Woolen Archive participates in the Amazon Associates programmes. Some links on the Sheep Gifts page are affiliate links: if you click them and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. Every affiliate link is clearly marked with a visible "(Affiliate)" tag beside the price, in accordance with the UK ASA/CAP Code, the US FTC Endorsement Guides, and EU consumer transparency law. Prices and availability are indicative and set by the retailer; we are not responsible for the content of third-party sites.

Imagery & content licensing

All imagery on The Woolen Archive is AI-generated and royalty-free, with no copyright restrictions. Textual claims are referenced to publicly available academic and breed-society sources, cited on each respective page.

Children's privacy

The Woolen Archive is not directed at children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them, consistent with the UK Age Appropriate Design Code and COPPA (US).
