Personal data we collect
We may collect the following categories of information:
- Contact details—such as name, email address, and the contents of messages you send via forms or email.
- Newsletter details—your email address and preferences if you subscribe to updates.
- Usage and technical data—IP address, device and browser type, pages visited, referring/exit pages, and timestamps, collected via cookies and similar technologies.
- Feedback and correspondence—responses to surveys or communications you send to us.
- Publicly provided data—comments or testimonials you choose to make public or authorize us to use.
We do not intentionally collect special categories of data (e.g., health, religion) via this Site. Please avoid sharing such information in free-text fields.
How we use your data
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
- To respond to your inquiries and provide customer support.
- To send newsletters or updates you’ve requested (you can unsubscribe at any time).
- To analyze Site performance, troubleshoot issues, and prevent abuse or fraud.

Legal bases (GDPR/UK GDPR)
Where the EU/UK GDPR applies, we process personal data under one or more of the following bases:
- Consent—for newsletters, non-essential cookies, and certain analytics.
- Legitimate interests—to ensure Site security, measure and improve performance, and respond to your requests.
- Contract—when processing is necessary to fulfill a request you make.
- Legal obligation—where laws require us to retain or disclose information.
Cookies & tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies to make the Site work and to understand how it is used. Non-essential cookies (e.g., for analytics or marketing) are used only with your consent where required. You can manage or withdraw consent via your browser settings and, where implemented, our cookie banner.
Types of cookies we may use:
- Strictly necessary—required for basic functionality and security.
- Performance/analytics—to understand usage and improve the Site.
- Functional—to remember your choices (e.g., language preferences).
- Marketing—if ever used, to measure outreach effectiveness (only with consent).
Analytics & embedded content
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to measure traffic and improve the Site. Analytics providers may set cookies and collect usage data in accordance with their own policies. Our pages may include embedded content (e.g., videos, social media posts). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you visited those websites directly and may collect data about you subject to their policies.
Newsletters & contact forms
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will use your email address to send you updates until you opt out. Every email includes an unsubscribe option. If you contact us via a form or email, we will use the details you provide to respond to your request.
Sharing your information
We share personal information only as needed with:
- Service providers—such as hosting and analytics providers that help operate the Site (bound by confidentiality and data-protection obligations).
- Legal and safety—if required by law, to protect rights, safety, or prevent fraud/abuse.
- With your consent—if you ask us or give permission to share specific information.
We do not sell your personal information.
International transfers
Our Site may be hosted or processed in countries outside your own. Where required, we implement safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent measures to protect your information.
Data retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary based on the type of data and context of collection.
How we protect your data
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your privacy rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights over your personal data, such as the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, portability, and to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal). You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority.
To exercise these rights, contact us at
Children’s privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top indicates when changes were most recently made. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised Policy.
