What Data We Collect

Email address — when you register your interest via the form on our homepage

We do not currently collect names, phone numbers, payment information, or any other personal data through this website. We do not use cookies beyond those strictly necessary for the website to function, and we do not use tracking or advertising cookies.

Why We Collect It

We collect your email address for one purpose only: to notify you when the RE-1 training kit launches and to send you relevant product updates in the lead-up to launch.

The legal basis for processing your email address is consent (Article 6(1)(a) UK GDPR). By submitting your email address via the registration form, you are giving us your consent to contact you with launch updates.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at info@rising-edge.co.uk or by using the unsubscribe link included in any email we send you.

How We Store Your Data

Your email address is stored securely using Brevo (formerly Sendinblue), an email marketing platform. Brevo is GDPR-compliant and processes data in accordance with standard contractual clauses for international data transfers.

We retain your email address until you withdraw your consent or request deletion, or until 12 months after the product launch — whichever comes first. After this point, your data will be permanently deleted from our systems.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any third parties for their own marketing purposes.
