Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 November 2026

1. What this page is

This is how OVERLORD Team LTD (“OVERLORD,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles personal data on overlord.team, the signed-in client portal, and the work we do for clients. It also lists every cookie the site sets and what each one is for.

2. Who is responsible

Controller: OVERLORD Team LTD, United Kingdom.
Email: info@overlord.team
Website: https://overlord.team

3. Data we collect

Account and profile

If you register or edit your profile we may hold: name, email, hashed password, optional company name, avatar URL, whether the email is verified, and optional TOTP / backup-code settings for two-factor login.

Google or GitHub sign-in

If you use Google or GitHub (when we have that switched on), we get the identifiers and profile fields they send — usually name, email, and a photo — so we can create or link the account.

Portal / project records

The portal stores service requests and briefs; project records, statuses, milestones, and tasks; comments; tickets and messages; files you or we upload; billing notes, paid/outstanding flags, billing history, and invoice summaries; in-app notifications; and, if you turn them on, web-push subscription endpoints.

Contact form

The public form can take name, email, subject, and a message. Cloudflare Turnstile sits on that form to cut bots. We may forward the message to an internal channel (Telegram, when configured) so someone actually replies.

Newsletter

If you subscribe, we store your email, the form source (homepage or footer), confirm/unsubscribe timestamps, and send status. Signup is double opt-in: we email a confirm link before you join the list. Every marketing mail includes a physical mailing address (CAN-SPAM) and an unsubscribe link; one-click unsubscribe is honoured. You can also write info@overlord.team. Mail: OVERLORD Team LTD, 31 Lairg Road, Newbold on Avon, CV21 2YL, United Kingdom, or whatever address we print in the mail footer.

Technical and usage data

  • IP address, browser/user-agent, and a rough location from the IP
  • Device and session data we need to keep sign-in honest
  • Server logs, security audit events, and crash reports via Sentry and GlitchTip (stack traces, request metadata, browser/device context)
  • Google Analytics on the public pages, only if you accept analytics cookies (see section 5). Until you accept, Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics are not loaded and your browser sends nothing to Google for measurement.
  • If the office map on the contact section loads, your browser requests map tiles from Mapbox, which sees your IP address and the request details it needs to serve them

Work you send us

Paid work often includes code, configs, credentials you choose to share, and business notes. We use that to do the job, under the confidentiality we already owe you.

4. Why we process it

  • Contract / pre-contract: accounts, the portal, the project, tickets, billing records, and replies to service requests.
  • Legitimate interests: keep the box from being abused, fix bugs, and talk about work that is already open.
  • Consent: analytics cookies (Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics), the newsletter, and optional push notifications. You can withdraw consent at any time.
  • Legal obligation: tax, accounting, and other legal/regulatory records we must keep.

5. Cookies and browser storage

Under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) we only set non-essential cookies after you say yes. Strictly necessary storage needs no consent because the site cannot work or stay secure without it. Choosing Reject, or ignoring the banner, keeps all analytics off. Rejecting costs you nothing: every page works the same.

Strictly necessary (no consent needed)

  • Sign-in session cookies (Better Auth), names startingbetter-auth.(or__Secure-better-auth.over HTTPS). First party. Set only when you sign in or start a sign-in or two-factor step; they keep you signed in and are removed when you sign out or the session ends.
  • ol_consent: remembers your analytics choice (“granted” or “denied”). First party, 180 days.
  • ol_theme: your light or dark theme preference, plus a theme entry in local storage. First party, up to 12 months.
  • ol_onboarded and sidebar:state: set only inside the signed-in portal, to skip the welcome steps and remember whether the sidebar is open.
  • Session storage: one short-lived flag that stops a failed page update from reloading the page more than once. It is deleted when you close the tab.
  • Cloudflare Turnstile (contact, newsletter, comment and booking forms, and sign-in): a bot check loaded from Cloudflare when a form appears. It is a security measure, so it does not wait for consent. Cloudflare receives your IP address and browser details to run the check and may use browser storage for it.

Analytics (only with your consent)

  • Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics load only after you press Accept analytics, and only on public pages (never on sign-in, admin or portal pages). They set Google cookies such as _ga and _ga_<id> and count visits, pages viewed, button clicks and form submissions. The tag starts in the “denied” state of Google Consent Mode and moves to “granted” only when you accept.
  • Landing pages and quote-confirmation pages (the short campaign pages we run for advertising) are separate from the main site and do not show this banner. They may load Google Tag Manager and Google Ads conversion measurement for visitors who arrive from an advertisement. If you do not want that, block third-party cookies in your browser or contact us at info@overlord.team.

Third-party content that is not a cookie

  • Mapbox map on the contact section: loaded from Mapbox when the map scrolls into view. Mapbox sees your IP address and may keep its own local storage entries.
  • Trustpilot in the footer is a plain link and a local image. No Trustpilot script runs on our pages.

Change your mind

You can change your analytics choice here at any time. Switching it off stops measurement from your next page view and deletes the Google cookies this browser holds for overlord.team. You can also clear cookies in your browser settings.

Your analytics choice

 

6. Who else sees data

We do not sell personal data. We pass it to processors only when the product needs them:

  • Hosting & database: the hosts that run the app and MariaDB (currently Hostinger).
  • Email: SMTP for password resets, verification, transactional mail, and newsletter confirm / marketing sends if you subscribed.
  • Cloudflare: Turnstile bot checks, and CDN/security where the zone uses it.
  • Google / GitHub: only if you pick OAuth.
  • Google (Tag Manager and Analytics): public-site traffic counts, only if you accepted analytics cookies.
  • Sentry & GlitchTip: errors so we can fix them.
  • Mapbox: contact-section map tiles, requested from your browser.
  • Telegram: contact-form or ops alerts, if we have a bot configured.
  • Push: browser push vendors if you subscribe (we store the endpoint keys on the account).
  • Payoneer: hosted Request a Payment pages (name, email, company, amount). We do not store card numbers.
  • Advisors / police: when the law requires it, or to protect people and the company.

Client invoices can be paid on Payoneer’s page. Payoneer runs that checkout under its own terms.

7. International transfers

Hosts and processors can sit outside your country, including outside the UK/EEA. Where UK/EU law requires it, we rely on standard contractual clauses or the provider’s equivalent terms.

8. How long we keep it

  • Account: while the account exists, then delete or anonymise after a reasonable wait unless the law says keep it.
  • Projects, tickets, files, billing: through the job and a while after, for support, disputes, and accounts.
  • Contact-form mail: long enough to answer, then we clear it in the usual sweep.
  • Security / audit logs: for the window we still need them to investigate.

9. Security

TLS in transit. Passwords hashed. Sessions and roles (client vs admin). Optional 2FA. Turnstile on public forms. Logs when something looks wrong. None of that is magic. Use a unique password and turn 2FA on.

10. Your rights

Under UK GDPR / EU GDPR you can usually ask to see, correct, erase, restrict, or object to processing, get a portable copy (data portability), or withdraw consent. You can also complain to your regulator (ICO in the UK).

Most profile fields you can edit yourself. For the rest, email info@overlord.team. We try to answer within 30 days.

11. Children

This is a business site and a client portal. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. Write to us if you think we have.

12. Other people’s sites

Trustpilot, social links, OAuth and Payoneer pages are theirs. Their policies apply there, not this one.

13. Changes

We change this page by posting a new version and moving the date at the top. If it matters for people already using the portal, we will try to email or put a notice in the product.

14. Contact
