Privacy & cookies

Short version: we only use analytics cookies if you say yes, we don’t run ads, and we never sell your data.

Who we are

Search Beef is run by Joss Froggatt. If you have any questions about this page or your data, email [email protected].

Cookies

Analytics (only if you click Accept). We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which episodes, posts and sponsor banners people view and click. It sets cookies starting with _ga. If you click Reject, Google Analytics isn’t loaded at all.

Your cookie choice. We remember whether you accepted or rejected, so we don’t keep asking. This is stored in your browser and isn’t sent to us.

You can change your mind at any time using Cookie settings at the bottom of every page.

Other services on this site

  • YouTube videos are embedded using YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode, so YouTube shouldn’t set cookies until you press play. Once you do, Google’s privacy policy applies.
  • Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser asks Google’s servers for them.
  • Hosting is provided by Cloudflare, which processes basic technical information (like your IP address) to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.
  • Guest applications at play.searchbeef.com, and links to Spotify, Apple Podcasts and LinkedIn, take you to separate services with their own privacy policies.

Email

If you email us, we’ll only use your details to reply to you, and to talk about the show if that’s what you got in touch about.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you can ask to see, correct or delete any personal data we hold about you. Just email [email protected].
