Who is responsible
Who Dialled is published by GO TO AGENCY, a SAS (société par actions simplifiée) registered in France (SIREN 944 980 762, RCS Dijon), 9 rue Jean-Jacques Rousseau, 21000 Dijon, France. GO TO AGENCY is the controller of the personal data described below, under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 and the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Contact: contact@whodialled.co.uk.
The numbers you check
When you check a number, our server reads it to build the result page and then forgets it. We do not keep checked numbers in a database, we do not build lists of them, and result pages are not stored on our server.
The number is part of the result page’s address (for example /number/07700900123), so that you can share the page. This means it can appear in your browser history, and in the technical logs described below. Result pages tell search engines not to index them, and they tell your browser not to pass their address to other sites when you follow a link.
A phone number can identify a person. Please check only numbers that have contacted you or that you have a reason to look up.
Technical logs
Like any website, our server and hosting provider record technical information about requests: IP address, date and time, the address requested (which, on a result page, includes the number), browser type and errors. We use these logs only to keep the site secure and working, which is our legitimate interest, and we keep them for no more than 30 days.
Advertising and cookies
The site is funded by advertising served by Google AdSense on its information pages. Result pages for a checked number carry no advertising code.
On pages with advertising, Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show and measure ads and, if you agree, to personalise them. Visitors from the UK and the European Economic Area see a consent message from Google’s consent management platform when they first arrive, and Google applies the choices made there.
You can change your choice at any time with the “Privacy and cookie settings” link at the bottom of the page. Google acts as a separate controller for the data it collects: see how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Audience measurement
We count visits to the information pages with Datalenk, an audience measurement service run by GO TO AGENCY, the publisher of this site, and hosted in Germany (Hetzner). It sets no cookies and does not identify you: it records the page viewed, the site you came from, the type of device and the text of links and buttons you click. It is never loaded on result pages, so the numbers you check are not sent to it. We use these figures, which is our legitimate interest, to see which pages help people, and keep them for no more than 25 months.
The site sets no cookies of its own.
Emails
If you write to us, we use your email address and message only to reply, and we delete the exchange within 12 months of the last message unless the law requires us to keep it longer.
Where data is processed
Our server is located in the European Union. Google may process data in other countries, under the safeguards described in its own privacy policy.
Your rights
You can ask for access to your personal data, its correction or deletion, a restriction of its use, or its transfer, and you can object to its use based on our legitimate interests. Where you have given consent, you can withdraw it at any time. To use these rights, email contact@whodialled.co.uk.
If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office in the UK, or to the CNIL, the French data protection authority.
Children
The site is not aimed at children and we do not knowingly collect data about them.
Changes
If we change how we handle data, we will update this page and its date.
