| Line in the prompt-book | Why it is in the prompt-book | In the prompt-book until |
|---|---|---|
| Nickname | The name the playbill shows | The day you delete your account |
| Email address | Recognising you at the stage door when you log in | The day you delete your account |
| Password hash | Checking your password without ever storing the password itself | The day you delete your account |
| Sign-up date | Replying to support letters and handling misuse | The day you delete your account |
And there the cast list ends. Meringue does not ask for your real name, address, date of birth or telephone number, nor for any payment detail, because the theatre sells nothing at all. A password is only ever held as its one-way hash. Lawful basis: performance of a contract, i.e. keeping up the account you requested. Delete it and Meringue strikes every line from the prompt-book on the spot; the button is on your account page.

Press “Accept all” and two Google tags, Analytics and Ads, take their seats: they count the house and note whether an advert brought someone down the boards to a first spin. Google is then sent your IP address, device information and those events. Press “Essential only” and the same tags wait in the wings in consent mode, writing no cookies and reading no advertising identifiers. Lawful basis: consent.
Our host keeps routine request logs for security, and keeps them only briefly. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.
The UK GDPR hands you the script: ask to see, correct or erase your data, have its processing restricted, object to it, or withdraw consent, whenever you choose. Delete the account from the account page and its data is struck off then and there; clear this site’s data in your browser and the last props are cleared away. Any complaint can be taken to the ICO at ico.org.uk.
Curtain rule number one: only adults aged 18 or over are seated at Marionette Pier. The show is paid for in virtual coins of no monetary value, and buying, selling, withdrawing or exchanging them is never possible. From the kiosk to the gilded stage there is no coin shop and no payment page, no prize of real-world value is ever presented, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
