If you leave a comment on our site you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles 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 other website.

Analytics

To deliver the best possible web experience, we collect technical information about your internet connection and browser as well as the country and telephone code where your computer is located, the web pages viewed during your visit, the buttons clicked on, and any search terms you entered. This is done with the use of Cookies that are stored within your web browser (find out more about how we use cookies).

Who we share your data with

We will sometimes be required to share data with trusted Third Parties who act as Data Processors on our behalf. Data will only be processed for the purposes of operating our website, providing our services, marketing (if consent is given), security, back-ups and communicating with you.

Data Processors are a person or organisation who deals with personal data as instructed by the controller for specific purposes and services offered to the controller that involve personal data processing.

To keep your data safe and protect your privacy, we have a strict policy with these organisations:

  • The only data given to the Processor will be what they need to perform their specific services.
  • We only give them permission to use the data for the exact purposes we agree in our contract with them.
  • We only use trusted Data Processors with clear terms and conditions and policies to ensure full compliance with privacy legislation.
  • If we stop using any of our Data Processors, all of the data held by them will either be deleted or rendered anonymous.

We will never share your data with third parties for their own purposes unless you have given explicit consent for us to do so.

Where is the data held?

Data Transfers Outside the EEA

Our trusted Data Processors may be required to transfer data outside of the EEA when acting on our behalf to provide services. We will regularly check that the organisations are all GDPR compliant for data transfer outside the EEA.

What measures are in place to keep this website secure?

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

Site Security

This website is scanned daily for Malware, which is removed immediately if found.

  • All security is handled at server level, rather than relying on third-party security plugins
  • Secure password best practices are enforced on the site for Administrators
  • Login attempts are limited at both site and server level, to protect against brute-force attacks
  • Intelligent IP blocking detects intruders and blocks them across all sites on the servers within seconds
  • All core updates are handled automatically by our hosting provider to ensure the site is running the most up-to-date and secure version of the system

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

If you wish to access, transfer or delete the data held about you, please contact us. Once notified we can then initiate the process required.

Your data may also be held within a site backup. Backups are stored for 30 days, after which they are deleted permanently
