2 – How We Collect Your Information

 

Comments – WordPress

If you leave a comment on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

Comments – Disqus

To allow visitors to discuss our blog articles and some web pages we use a discussion system called Disqus.

To do so we embed code that Disqus provide and we do not control ourselves. Disqus anonymously tracks visitors to pages like we do. They also remember who you are if you login to any Disqus service, so you can comment on any website using their tool.

Logging in to Disqus can be done in many ways, including via Facebook. If you login via social network, Disqus will be able to link your activity to that network. In this way, your Disqus activity may be personally identifiable.

Disqus will know what pages you viewed in our site and what you wrote on those comments. Of course all comments you leave are also publicly visible on the Internet alongside your name, so we do not imagine this is a concern for many people. We class Disqus as a third party data processor.

Telephone

If you provide us with personal information whilst on a call with us we will input this into our website or internal system for processing. We will not sign you up to any newsletters without consent.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Website Forms

When you submit a form on our website we will record all information submitted including any personal information provided (such as your name and email address).

This information is stored on within our websites database for a short period of time before being sent securely a mail delivery service called Mailgun. We consider Mailgun to be a third party data processor.

Newsletters

If you choose to join our email newsletter, the email address that you submit to us and any other personal information supplied (such as first and last names and mailing list preferences) will be forwarded to MailChimp or Campaign Monitor who provide us with email marketing services.

We consider MailChimp and Campaign Monitor to be a third party data processors. Your email address will remain within their database for as long as we continue to use these services for email marketing or until you specifically request removal from the list.

You can do this by unsubscribing using the unsubscribe links contained in any email newsletters that we send you or by requesting removal via email. When requesting removal via email, please send your email to us using the email account that is subscribed to the mailing list.

If you are under 16 years of age you MUST obtain parental consent before joining our email newsletter. While your email address remains on our mailing list you will receive periodic (approximately 12 times a year) newsletter-style emails from us.

Email Links

Should you choose to contact us using a mailto email link, none of the data that you supply will be stored by this website or passed to / be processed by any of the third party data processors. Instead the data will be collated into an email and sent to us over the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Our SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as SSL) meaning that the email content is encrypted using SHA-2, 256-bit cryptography before being sent across the internet. The email content is then decrypted by our local computers and devices.

You are responsible for the security of your email software used to send emails to us.

Analytics 


Google Analytics

Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to see their journey through the website.

Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us.

Some websites allow GA to track your IP address, however we anonymise your IP address from Google so no personal information is passed. We consider Google to be a third party data processor.

If you opt in we use Facebook Pixel Tracking to help us measure conversions from our Facebook to our website. This also allows us to target adverts to Facebook users who have visited or interacted with our site. We class Facebook as a third party data processor.

It is worth noting – If you are logged into any of Facebooks services then they may track your site usage directly. We have no control or use over that.

Google Adwords Tracking

If you opt in we use Google Adwords Tracking to help us measure conversions from our paid advertising on Google. This helps us improve the layout of our website and refine any advertising keywords used on Google Adwords. We class Google and Google Adwords as a third party data processor.

It is worth noting – If you are logged into any of Googles services then they may track your site usage directly. We have no control or use over that.

Ecommerce 

We use a variety of modern payment providers to bill for our services or products online. These companies will have access to your personal and payment information. We never store or have any access to your credit / debit card details.

The third parties we use are Stripe and Paypal.

We share information with these companies only to the extent necessary for the purposes of processing payments you make via our website.
