Third-party signals in DNS

Domain-verification and SPF records left in DNS reveal which SaaS platforms a domain has been connected to. These are fingerprints, not proof of active use.

Privacy & data processing

generated template

Pre-opening. The published "privacy policy" is generic website boilerplate, not a school notice — no DPO, no processors, no cookie disclosure — and no analytics or consent banner load. A proper pupil privacy notice doesn't exist yet.

What the site loads vs. what it discloses

The only "privacy policy" is a stock CMS template with no data-subject rights, no DPO and no processor list — not a school or pupil notice. The operating partner, Durham Sixth Form Centre, has full policies the school will presumably inherit once open.
