Privacy
BatumiReviews collects as little as it can. The site has no accounts, no forms, no newsletter and no advertising pixels, and it counts visits without cookies. This page explains what is processed, why, by whom, for how long, and how to use your rights.
Who is responsible for your data
BatumiReviews is run by its operator, who decides how the data described here is used (the data controller). For any question about your data, write to info@batumireviews.ge.
What we process
Hosting logs, by Cloudflare
Cloudflare hosts the site and serves every page. To deliver pages and protect the site from attacks, Cloudflare processes technical data from each request, such as your IP address, the time, the page requested and your browser's user agent. Cloudflare may also set a strictly necessary security cookie to tell people apart from automated traffic. This cookie has no marketing use.
Visit statistics, by Umami
We count visits with Umami Analytics to see which pages help readers. Umami sets no cookies, stores nothing on your device and keeps no personal data: it does not store your IP address and cannot follow you from one site to another. It records the page you open, the site that sent you, your country, your type of device, browser and language, and clicks on a business's website or map and on our email address. Those clicks let us tell a business how many readers went to it.
Emails you send us
If you write to info@batumireviews.ge, we receive your email address, your name if you give it, and what you write. Mail to that address passes through Cloudflare Email Routing and is delivered to a mailbox hosted by Google. We use it only to reply and to act on what you wrote, for example to check and correct a fact.
Fonts
The site's fonts are stored on our own server. Your browser does not contact a font service when you read a page.

BatumiReviews sets no analytics or advertising cookies: Umami counts visits without them. Cloudflare's security cookie, if set, is strictly necessary and is not used to track you.
Businesses and people named in our reviews
BatumiReviews reviews businesses, not private individuals. When a business trades under a person's name, we publish only what the review needs: the business name and the facts about its service. We do this in our legitimate interest in publishing reviews, and in the public's interest in reading them. If you are named and want to correct something or object, write to info@batumireviews.ge.
Your rights
You can ask us:
- whether we hold data about you, and for a copy of it;
- to correct data that is wrong;
- to delete it, or to stop or limit its use;
Write to info@batumireviews.ge and say what you want. We reply within 10 working days. If we need more time, we tell you why within that period, and we never take more than 10 further working days.
If you think we have handled your data wrongly, you can complain to the State Audit Office of Georgia, which oversees personal data protection: sao.ge.
Children
BatumiReviews is written for adults choosing a service in Batumi and is not aimed at children. If a child has written to us, a parent or guardian can ask us to delete that message.
Links to other sites
When you follow a link from BatumiReviews to another site, that site's own privacy policy applies.
Changes to this page
If what we process changes, for example when a new service is added, we update this page before the change takes effect, and the date below changes with it.
