Privacy & Cookies Policy
May 2018
To operate this business and provide services to you, it is sometimes necessary to collect or process information about you. This includes:
Information that you provide directly, such as when you complete an online form or send a message via my website;
Information that is automatically sent to me by your computer’s internet browser when you visit my website, such as your computer’s technical address (or ‘IP address’) or information about which internet browser you are using, and so on;
Information about how you use this website or services, such as which pages you visit and how frequently you visit the site.
I am fully committed to maintaining the privacy of any information (‘personal data’) that you provide. Furthermore, I commit to ensuring that such data is held securely, used appropriately and only retained for as long as is necessary.
My systems and services are designed with privacy in mind, and I only ask for the minimum amount of information required to provide my services efficiently; I have no desire to retain or maintain any more information than necessary. I aspire to comply to the fullest extent possible with applicable data protection regulations, in particular the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (‘GDPR’) and ePrivacy Directive, where applicable.
Should you have any questions or concerns about the data I hold about you, I can be contacted at

Personal data is any information that allows me to identify you personally. I will always seek to gain your explicit consent for providing this information before we collect it from you, although this may not be the only legal basis on which we collect the data.
Other types of information, such as your computer’s ‘IP’ address or broad geographical location do not, generally, allow us to identify you directly.
I operate on a strict ‘need to know’ basis for all data I work with. The only other people/organizations granted access to personal data are:
