What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Contact forms

We use contact forms to get back to customers who have asked for a call back or a reply by email. This information is used purely for the purpose of getting in touch with our customers and is never passed on to any third party. If you would like your details removed, simply drop us an email requesting that we delete your information.

Users may be asked to provide details such as their name, email address, mailing address, phone number and so on, as required. That said, users are more than welcome to visit our Site without sharing any personal details. We will only collect personal identification information from users if they choose to submit it to us voluntarily. Users can always decline to provide personally identifying information, though doing so may mean they are unable to take part in certain activities on our Site.

We may also collect non personal identification information about users when they interact with our Site. This can include things like the browser name, the type of device being used, and technical details about how users connect to our Site, such as the operating system and internet service provider, along with other similar information.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. This is simply for your convenience, so you do not need to fill in your details all over again the next time you leave a comment. These cookies will remain active for one year.

If you have an account and log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to check whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie holds no personal data and is removed when you close your browser.

If you visit a page, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply helps us provide a more tailored experience for our customers. It expires after one day.

Analytics

We occasionally use analytics tools to keep an eye on how our website is performing and to make improvements where needed. The software we use is Matomo Analytics, which is hosted locally. This information is not shared with any third party. You can find out more about Matomo Analytics here.

Third party websites

Users may come across adverts or other content on our Site that link through to the websites and services of our partners, suppliers, advertisers, sponsors, licensors and other third parties. We have no control over the content or links that appear on those sites and take no responsibility for the practices used by websites that are linked to or from our Site. On top of that, those sites and services, including their content and links, may change at any time. They may also have their own privacy policies and customer service policies in place. Any browsing or interaction on another website, including those that carry a link to our Site, is governed by that website’s own terms and policies.

How we protect your information

We put appropriate data collection, storage and processing practices in place, along with suitable security measures, to guard against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information, username, password, transaction details and any other data stored on our Site.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, that comment along with its metadata will be kept indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognise and approve any follow up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For users who register on our website, we also store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time, though they are not able to change their username. Website administrators are also able to view and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have filled in a contact form on this site or have left comments, you are welcome to request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any information you have provided to us. You can also ask us to erase any personal data we hold about you. Please note this does not cover any data we are required to keep for administrative, legal or security reasons.

Where we send your data

All data is hosted locally on our website and is not transferred anywhere else.

Your acceptance of these terms

By using this Site, you are indicating your acceptance of this policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use our Site. Carrying on using the Site after any changes to this policy have been posted will be taken as your acceptance of those changes.

Complaints

If you have a complaint about this policy or about any aspect of the personal information we hold about you, please do get in touch with us via our contact page. If you are not happy with our response, you have the right to raise a complaint with your local data protection authority.
