An IP address is a set of numbers which is assigned to your computer during a browsing session whenever you log on to the internet via your internet service provider or your network (if you access the Internet from, for example, a computer at work). Your IP address is automatically logged by our servers and used to collect traffic data about visitors to our website.

• To respond to an enquiry
• To acknowledge any contribution that you make
• To send information to you
• To fulfil any contract that we may enter into with you
• For market research purposes
• If you are an individual, sole trader or in a limited and general partnership, to send marketing information to you with your consent.

If you opt-in to receive marketing information from us, we will send you information by email. We will use your data to ensure that you only receive information that is directly relevant to you. You have a right at any time to opt-out from this by unsubscribing from our emails or you can click here.

We will only use your information for the purpose or purposes it was collected for (or else for closely related and reasonable purposes).

3. Sharing Information

We may share your personal information with our commercial partners (email marketing providers, design companies and printers) for marketing purposes, if you have consented to this.

We will not share your personal details with any other third parties without your permission.

We only transfer data to server locations that are secure and GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliant.

See section 6 for detail on transfers of data outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

4. Data retention policy

How long do we hold your data for?

We keep your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it is being processed. This is to reduce the risk that it will become inaccurate, out of date or irrelevant.

We ensure that your personal data is securely disposed of when no longer needed or you unsubscribe.

5. How we protect your personal data

Where is your data held?

• We hold your data on our secure server

• We share email relevant data with Dotmailer – our email marketing provider – expressly for marketing purposes

How do we keep your data secure?

We take the security of your data very seriously from the outset. Our web address is HTTPS (HyperText Transport Protocol Secure). This is the protocol used to access a secure web server. We use https:// as the prefix to our web address rather than the common http://, so that your session is managed by a security protocol and the transmission of data is encrypted to and from the web server.

Secure certificates (SSL Certificates) are in place. These are small data files that digitally bind a cryptographic key to an organisation’s details. These allow secure connections from a web server to a browser. SSL is used to secure the transfer of your data to our server.

Our server is protected by a firewall. Log in details are securely shared internally between employees.

6. Transfers of data outside the EEA (European Economic Area)

Where consent has been obtained, photos may be shared on social media which may transfer globally.

Your personal data can be viewed and accessed by our US company. We rely on transfers here on the basis of an adequacy decision.
