Privacy Policy

Effective 28 September 2026.

Watch Breaker is a trading name of Union Boomer LLC, a limited liability company registered in Wyoming, USA. Union Boomer LLC is the controller of the personal data described here. This policy forms part of our Terms of Use.

1. What we collect

When	What	Why
You use a free lookup tool	Nothing identifying. The lookups run in your browser and we do not record what you type into them or keep a history of your searches.	—
You ask for free triage or a Movement ID report	Your email address, your photographs, and whatever you tell us about the watch. If you give them, a name and a reference number.	To answer you, produce your report, and deliver it.
You submit to Weigh Your Omega	The reference, hallmark, weight and description you enter, your photograph of the scale, and your email address if you provide one.	To verify the figure and add it to the public gold-weight register.
You email us	Your email address and the contents of your message.	To reply.
You pay for a report	We do not see or store your card or bank details. The payment provider handles that and tells us only that the payment was made.	To take payment.
Anyone visits the site	Aggregate, non-identifying traffic statistics — page views, country, referring site. No cookies are set for this and no profile of you is built.	To see which pages are useful.

2. Weigh Your Omega submissions

Weigh Your Omega exists to build a public register of real measured gold-case weights. If you submit a weight:

• The measurement — reference, hallmark, weight, what was on the scale — is intended for publication in the register, and we may publish it.
• Your email address is not published and is used only to come back to you with a question or to tell you the figure went in.
• Your scale photograph is evidence for us. We do not publish it without asking you first.
• If you ask to be credited by name, we will credit you. If you do not ask, the entry is anonymous.
• Submissions sit unpublished until reviewed. You can ask us to withdraw yours at any time before or after publication.

3. What we never do

• We do not sell, rent or trade your personal data to anyone.
• We do not run advertising networks, retargeting pixels or third-party tracking cookies on this site.
• We do not add you to a mailing list because you asked us a question. Any email list is opt-in only, and every message carries an unsubscribe link.
• We do not publish your name, your location, your contact details or anything that ties a serial number to you personally.

4. Legal basis (UK and EU visitors)

Where the UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies to you, we rely on:

• Contract — to produce and deliver a report you have asked for and paid for.
• Consent — for optional things you choose to do, such as submitting to Weigh Your Omega, agreeing to have a case file published, or joining the email list. You can withdraw consent at any time.
• Legitimate interests — to answer enquiries, keep a reference library of movement photographs for identification work, keep basic business records, and prevent misuse of the site.

5. Who else handles the data

We are a one-person operation and use ordinary service providers to run the site. Each processes data on our behalf:

• Cloudflare — website hosting and delivery, and email routing for our @watchbreaker.com addresses.
• Supabase — the database and the photo storage behind the report request and Weigh Your Omega forms.
• Google — our mailbox. Email you send us is received and stored there.
• Payment providers — PayPal and Payoneer, where you pay for a report. They hold the payment details; we do not.

Affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link to a shop such as eBay, Chrono24 or Amazon, that shop or its affiliate network (for example eBay Partner Network, Awin or Amazon Associates) may set a cookie or record the click so it can credit the sale to us. That happens on their site, under their privacy policy, after you leave ours. No affiliate code runs on this site, and we receive commission reports only, never your name, address or payment details.

Beyond these, we disclose personal data only where the law requires it.

6. Where your data is held

Our providers are United States companies and your data is stored on servers in the United States and other countries where those providers operate. If you are in the UK, the EU or elsewhere with data transfer rules, understand that submitting information to us means it will be transferred to and processed in the United States. We rely on the standard contractual protections our providers offer for those transfers.

7. How long we keep it

• Report photographs and findings — kept indefinitely as part of our identification reference library, because the value of a reference library is that it accumulates. Ask us to delete yours and we will.
• Email correspondence — kept while it is useful, and in any case no longer than we need it.
• Weigh Your Omega submissions — the measurement is kept as long as the register exists; the scale photograph and your email address are deleted on request.
• Payment and business records — kept as long as US tax and company law requires.

8. Your rights

Wherever you live, you may ask us to:

• tell you what we hold about you;
• give you a copy of it;
• correct anything that is wrong;
• delete it;
• stop using it, or withdraw a consent you previously gave.

Email id@watchbreaker.com and we will deal with it within 30 days. There is no charge. If you are in the UK or EU and are not satisfied with how we have handled it, you may complain to your national data protection authority.

9. Security

Photographs and submissions are held in access-controlled storage with our providers, and the site is served over HTTPS. No system is perfect, and we cannot guarantee absolute security — but we do not hold card details, home addresses or identity documents, so there is little here worth stealing.

10. Children

This site is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has sent us something, tell us and we will delete it.

11. Changes

We may update this policy. The version in force is the one published here, with its effective date at the top.
