Route-card and website enquiries

The Peakbud contact page asks for a name, an email where we can reply and a message. WordPress keeps a submitted message as a private enquiry. The studio uses it to investigate questions about a route card, respond to an access issue or discuss a specific request to use material. If you include a description of a climbing trip, leave out identifying details about the people with you. The game concepts and expedition notes can be read without opening a website account.

The counter on a public page

Histats runs on the public website and measures page visits using a counter also used by several studio sites. The tracker receives technical information when your browser requests it and may use a first-party identifier, as described by Histats. Form submissions are stored apart from the tracker. Browser controls can restrict requests or remove cookies and other site data. Cloudflare handles delivery and protection for the site. Connection details and requested page addresses may appear in operational logs used to find delivery problems or abuse.

Keeping and reviewing a message

There is no automatic fixed expiry date for the private contact records. A message is retained while we need it for its enquiry or a related follow-up. Backup versions may continue to contain a live entry that has since been removed until those versions cycle out. To ask what is held or to ask for an update or deletion, use the contact form and provide enough context to locate your note. The approximate date, topic and previous reply address are a good starting point. We may ask you to confirm from the original address before providing a copy or acting on the request.

When you send an access report, describe the page and how you tried to use it. A screen reader name or a brief description of the difficulty can help, and no personal climbing history is needed. For a question about the statistics script, you can consult the linked service notice for its account of how the browser request is handled.
