Private by default.
A public Wi-Fi name shouldn’t mean a public email address. Here’s what DailySSID collects, and how you stay in control.

Who is responsible?
DailySSID is a single-owner Wi-Fi naming experiment. Data controller: Felix Wahlberg. Privacy contact: privacy@dailyssid.co.uk.
Suggestions and contributor notifications
We store your suggested name, optional explanation, news link, and display name so we can review and publish the suggestion. We only publish your display name if you explicitly opt in. If you request a winner notification, we store your email separately and verify it first. That request is separate from newsletter consent. Winner notifications are sent only after the network confirms publication.
Email subscriptions
Newsletters require a separate, unchecked consent box and email confirmation. We record your preference, consent time and policy version. Choose daily or weekly emails, change your preference, or unsubscribe using the secure link in each newsletter. We use consent as the basis for marketing emails under UK GDPR and PECR. Withdrawal does not affect processing that already took place.
Security, cookies and service providers
Administrator sessions use a strictly necessary, secure session cookie. Public browsing does not require cookies or third-party analytics. We store short-lived, hashed request identifiers to limit spam, and keep operational and audit logs to protect the service. These security activities rely on our legitimate interest in operating a safe website.
In production, the configured hosting provider and PostgreSQL provider process application data. Resend processes email delivery. The owner must document the selected providers, applicable transfer safeguards, and their locations before launch.
Retention
Confirmed names and their public context remain in the archive. Unconfirmed newsletter requests are removed after 30 days. Expired session and rate-limit records are regularly deleted. Rejected or unselected suggestions, contributor details and email delivery logs should be reviewed by the owner at least every 12 months and removed when no longer necessary. Attribution can be removed without deleting the history of a network name.
Your rights
You may request access, correction, erasure, restriction, portability or object to processing where applicable. Use your secure preferences link for newsletter changes or deletion, or contact the owner using the privacy address above. You can complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We do not sell your details or make consequential automated decisions about you.
The local development preview
In mock mode, network changes and email delivery are simulated. Emails are retained in the administrator’s local outbox. The preview does not send emails or alter a real Wi-Fi network.
