What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

We take your privacy seriously and are committed to protecting any information you share with us. We will never share any browsing data or personal details except those that are authorised by yourself.
You will always have the option to opt out of marketing correspondence from us. We never send unsolicited ‘junk’ email or communications. We will never share your data with anyone else who might. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

The information we collect

Information is collected when you complete our contact us form. The information we collect is clearly set out on the contact us webpage. We may also collect your IP address and use cookies unless you configure your web browser not to accept them.

How the information is used

We collect information about you so that we can personalise your use of the site, assist your use of the site and improve the site generally. Depending upon your selections for our data protection questions we may arrange for you to be sent information about related products and services from us but not from third parties. You may update the answers to your questions at any time.

Who we disclose it to

We will not sell your information to third parties. However, we may disclose your information to third party suppliers who fulfil business activities for us, like marketing, events and market research. We may also share your information with third party suppliers who provide a service on behalf of us to you. For example, we may use lead generation software and are therefore subject to their privacy policy: https://www.leadforensics.com/privacy-policy/ We also use mailing subscription and mailing services. We are therefore subject to the privacy policy as set out by them. For full details, please visit here: https://www.campaignmonitor.com/trust/privacy-hub/

We take steps to ensure that any third-party partners who handle your information comply with data protection legislation and protect your information, just as we do. We only disclose personal information that is necessary for them to provide the service that they are undertaking on our behalf.
