04How we share your information

We will not share your personal information with third parties, except in the following situations:

• Service Providers: We may share your information with trusted third parties who assist us in delivering our services (e.g., hosting providers, email providers, payment processors).
• Website Hosting: Our website is hosted by Netlify, Inc., which also processes submissions to our contact form and forwards them to us by email. Netlify is based in the United States; where your data is transferred outside the UK, it is protected by appropriate safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or the UK Extension to the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. See Netlify’s privacy policy.
• Legal Compliance: We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in response to legal requests (e.g., court orders).

05Data security

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect it from unauthorized access, disclosure, or loss. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.

06Data retention

We will retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including any legal or reporting requirements. When your information is no longer needed, we will securely delete or anonymize it.

07Your data protection rights

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), you have the following rights:

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns first.

08Cookies and tracking technologies

Our website does not use cookies. We do not use analytics, advertising or social media tracking, and we do not store any information on your device. Our fonts are hosted on our own website, so your browser is not sent to third-party services when you visit.

Because we do not use cookies, there is no cookie banner and nothing to opt out of. If this changes, we will update this policy and ask for your consent where required.

09Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and where appropriate, we will notify you by email. Please check this page regularly to stay informed of any updates.
