Privacy policy

Updated 13 November 2026. Skint Kit is run by Lewis Whitter, UK.

This website

No accounts, no ad trackers. Affiliate cookies (Skimlinks) only load if you say OK on the banner; see our cookie policy. We collect no personal data from visitors. To count visits we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-first visitor counter. It sets no cookies, stores nothing on your device, doesn't fingerprint you and doesn't follow you across sites. It only gives us anonymous totals (page views, which pages, which site sent you). Ad blockers that block it are fine with us. Our host (Cloudflare) keeps short-lived server logs (such as IP address) for security, under our legitimate interest in keeping the site safe.

Affiliate links

When you click an affiliate link (for example Amazon), the shop or affiliate network may set its own cookies to record that you came from us. That happens on their site, under their privacy policy, not ours. We only see anonymous totals of clicks and sales, never who you are.

Our shop (presets and printable forms)

Purchases go through Payhip, with payment by Stripe or PayPal. We receive your name, email and what you bought, so we can deliver it, help with problems and keep tax records. Lawful basis: contract and legal obligation. Kept for 6 years (HMRC rules). We never see card details. We don't send marketing emails unless you opt in at checkout.

Skint Kit Uploader (our Google app)

Skint Kit Uploader is a private tool used only by Skint Kit to publish our own videos to our own YouTube channel. It uses YouTube API Services. With the channel owner's permission it accesses: the ability to upload videos and set their titles, descriptions, thumbnails and visibility, and read-only statistics (views, likes, comments counts) for our own videos.

We use this data only to publish and measure our own videos. We do not collect data about other YouTube users, do not sell or share any data, and do not use it for advertising. Statistics are stored as simple numbers in our private code repository and deleted when no longer needed (within 12 months). Access tokens are kept as encrypted secrets and are never shared.

By using our app you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. See also the Google Privacy Policy. Our use of information from Google APIs follows the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. You can remove the app's access at any time at Google security settings.

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete your data, object to how it's used, or get a copy. We reply within one month. If you're unhappy you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
