Information collected

We collect information you choose to provide, including your name, email address, selected message topic and message content when you use the contact form or email us. We may also receive technical information generated when you visit the site, such as IP address, browser type, device information, page requests, cookie choices and basic security logs.

The site does not request special category data. Please avoid sending private information about third parties or unnecessary sensitive information in contact messages.

How information is used

Contact information is used to respond to enquiries, assess corrections, manage rights requests, handle privacy requests and maintain records of correspondence. Technical information is used to deliver pages, protect the site, remember cookie choices and understand aggregate use where optional analytics are accepted.

The lawful bases under UK data protection law and the UK GDPR include legitimate interests in running an editorial website, consent for optional cookies where required, performance of steps requested by you when you contact us, and compliance with legal obligations.

Cookies and processors

Cookies are described in the cookie policy. Essential cookies support site operation and preference storage. Optional analytics or functional cookies are used only according to the choice recorded by the banner. Service providers may process hosting, email, security, analytics and form-delivery data on our behalf. They are required to process personal data only under appropriate instructions and safeguards.

International visitors

The site is operated from the United Kingdom and follows the Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR. Where the EU GDPR applies to visitors in the European Economic Area, we handle applicable rights in line with that regime. Where the California Consumer Privacy Act applies to a visitor, we respond to applicable rights to know, delete, correct and opt out of sale or sharing. We do not sell personal information.

Retention

Contact messages are kept only for as long as needed to answer the enquiry, maintain editorial records, resolve disputes or meet legal requirements. Security logs are kept for a limited operational period unless longer retention is needed to investigate misuse. Cookie choices remain until cleared by the visitor or replaced by a later choice.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to processing, request portability, withdraw consent and complain to a data protection regulator. In the UK, the regulator is the Information Commissioner’s Office. To exercise rights, contact [email protected]. We may need enough information to confirm the request and locate the relevant record.
