What we collect

We collect only what we need: the email address you give us when subscribing to a newsletter or account; information you provide through our contact form; and limited technical data (such as device type and anonymised usage statistics) needed to operate the site securely.

How we use it

We use your data to deliver newsletters and subscriptions you have requested, to respond to your enquiries, and to maintain the security and performance of the site. We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it for third-party marketing.

Lawful basis

We process your data on the basis of your consent (for newsletters), the performance of a contract (for subscriptions), and our legitimate interests in running a secure website. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Cookies

We use only essential cookies required for the site to function, plus, where you consent, privacy-respecting analytics. We do not use advertising trackers. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

Your rights

Under the UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to our processing of your data, and the right to data portability. To exercise any of these, email [email protected]. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
