Scope of this Policy

This Policy applies to information processed when you access or interact with our website pages, including embedded forms and cookies. It does not cover third-party websites that we link to; those are subject to their own policies.

Data we may collect

Information you provide

  • Contact details you submit via forms (for example your name, email address and message).
  • Preferences you share regarding content topics or feedback.

  • Technical data such as IP address, browser type, device, approximate location (city/region), and access timestamps.
  • Usage data such as pages visited, referral source, and interactions with page elements.
  • Cookie identifiers used to remember settings and to perform aggregated analytics.

We do not knowingly collect special category data.

Cookies and analytics

We use essential cookies for basic site functionality and may use analytics cookies to understand aggregate usage (e.g., page performance, engagement). You can refuse or clear non-essential cookies in your browser settings. If analytics are used, we configure them to respect privacy by minimising data and avoiding unnecessary personal identifiers where feasible.

Essential cookies are necessary to deliver the website. Declining them may affect certain features (for example, dismissing notices).

Purposes and lawful bases

  • Operating the website and delivering content (legitimate interests; performance of a service requested by you).
  • Responding to enquiries you submit (legitimate interests; consent where applicable).
  • Measuring aggregated performance and improving usability (legitimate interests; consent for non-essential cookies).
  • Safeguarding and security, including detecting and preventing abuse (legitimate interests; legal obligations).

Sharing and recipients

We may share limited information with service providers who assist us in operating the website (such as hosting, analytics, or email). These providers are required to handle data securely and only for the specified purposes. We do not sell your personal data.

International transfers

Where data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses, and additional measures to protect your information consistent with UK law.

Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy, including to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and maintain security. Retention periods vary depending on the data type and context.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict or object to processing, and the right to data portability. You may also withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent. To exercise these rights, contact us via the Contact page. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) in the UK.

Children

This website is intended for people aged 18+ only. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information from unauthorised access, loss, or alteration. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
