We do not use the information submitted through contact forms for marketing purposes, except you’ve given consent to receive marketing information from us.

Who we share your data with

Analytics: We use Google Analytics to gather statistics on how you use our website and sell advert slots on our website; this allows us to track and monitor the engagement on our website. We also use Google AdSense to sell advert slots on our website. You can read Google’s privacy policy here.

Cloud-based services: We use a third party cloud-based service, Dropbox for storing files, pictures, videos, and content. These files may include data such as names, contact details shared with us. You can read Dropbox’s privacy policy here. 

Newsletters: Newsletters are sent through a third party website MailChimp. Your data is however secured during the distribution of newsletters and updates. To view how MailChimp uses your data, please read their privacy policy here.

Subscribers are always given the option to opt-out of further communication. For this to occur, the service might require your contact information (name and email). This allows your data to be correctly deleted from the mailing list.

How long we retain your data

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

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

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.
