Privacy Policy

The Mothers Contempt Brewery is a fictional British craft brewery and the operator of this website. “Good Beer. Bad Attitude.” may be our motto, but our attitude to your data is, frankly, disappointingly responsible.

If you have questions about this policy, please send them through the enquiry form on our contact page and we will get back to you.

At present, we collect nothing about you beyond a single cookie preference stored in your own browser (see our cookie policy). We run no analytics, no advertising trackers, and no third-party monitoring.

If contact forms, newsletter sign-ups or other interactive features are added in future, this section will be updated to describe exactly what details you provide (such as your name and email address) and why.

Where the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) applies, we would rely on two legal bases: legitimate interests for operating the website and responding to genuine enquiries, and consent for anything optional, including non-essential cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time via your browser settings.

The only data this site currently stores is your cookie consent choice, which is kept in your browser's local storage under the key tmc-cookie-consent. It never leaves your device and is not transmitted to us or anyone else. We do not profile you, sell data, or share it with advertisers.

This site uses exactly one strictly necessary local-storage entry to remember your cookie banner choice. There are no analytics, advertising or third-party tracking cookies. Full details, including a table of every entry, are set out in our cookie policy.

Under UK data protection law you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict and object to the processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability. You may also lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. Since we currently hold no personal data about you, most of these rights will, for now, be remarkably easy for us to honour.

Your cookie preference remains in your browser until you clear it or it expires after 12 months. The only third party involved in running this website is our hosting provider, which serves the site's static files. We share no personal data with any other processors.

If the site grows new features that involve personal data, we will update this policy and revise the “last updated” date above. Significant changes will be flagged clearly on the site so you are never left guessing what we are up to behind the bar.
