Privacy Policy
Privacy matters, but it can be confusing. This page explains our approach to privacy and how it affects you.
Short version
We collect anonymous statistics about your visit, like which of our pages you viewed.
Some third parties like Facebook may know you visited this website, if you use their services. We can’t control them but we don’t believe this knowledge poses any threat to you.
If you sign up with us, we take great care to keep your information safe and we’ll never share it with others without your express permission.
We never share your data with third parties except to help us deliver our own services.
These are just the key points. If you need further detail, keep reading.
Measuring our visitors
We measure visitors to our website using Google Analytics. This records what pages you view within our site, how you arrived at our site and some basic information about your computer. All of that information is anonymous – so we don’t know who you are; just that somebody visited our site.
The information we collect from analytics helps us understand what parts of our sites are doing well, how people arrive at our site and so on. Like most websites, we use this information to make our website better.
You can learn more about Google Analytics here.
Embedded content from other websites
Content 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 originating 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.
Adverts and Sponsored Links
This website does not contain any sponsored links or adverts.
Downloads and Media Files
Any downloadable documents, files or media made available on this website are provided to you at your own risk. While all precautions have been undertaken to ensure that only genuine downloads are available, you are advised to verify their authenticity using third party anti-virus software or similar applications.
We accept no responsibility for third party downloads and downloads provided by external third party websites. We advise you to verify their authenticity using third party anti-virus software or similar applications.
Facebook, Twitter and other social networks
These services provide social buttons and similar features which we use on our website – such as the “Like” and “Tweet” buttons.
To do so, we embed code that they provide and we do not control ourselves. To function, their buttons generally know if you’re logged in; for example Facebook use this to say “x of your friends like this”. We do not have any access to that information, nor can we control how those networks use it.
Social networks, therefore, could know that you’re viewing this website, if you use their services. (That isn’t to say that they do, but their policies may change).
If you sign up for a service
When you sign up for any of our services (for example, signing up to the mailing list) we will record specific personal information about you, such as your name and email address.
Emails
We may send you email notifications which you have specifically requested (such as newsletters or notifications). You have the ability to opt out of any of this communication at any time.
We will never provide your personal information or email address to any third parties except where they are specifically employed to help deliver our own services, as detailed above.
Security
We take many precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information. These precautions include:
- Use of SSL encryption for all page content and any data collected
- Hardware stored in secured datacentres behind firewalls
- All access to information restricted by password and/or secure key
- Restrictions to what information can be accessed via any location
Whilst we take great care to ensure any confidential information remains protected, we cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the Internet.
If, during the course of your use of this website, you are asked to create a user account, then please note that you are responsible for keeping your password and user details confidential. We will never ask you for your password, so please don’t trust anybody asking you for it.
Data finding
We make use of various third party APIs on this website in order to accomplish certain tasks. For example we use the Sendinblue API to process mailing list subscriptions.
Your data
Your data belongs to you. If at any time you want to request a copy of your data, or to request that we remove it from our system, you can do that here.
Updates to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time-to-time, particularly as technology changes. You can always check this page for the latest version. We may also notify you of changes to our privacy policy by email.
