What information do I collect?

Information you give me

When you submit a contact form on this website, I collect your name, your email address, and any other information you choose to include in your message. I do not collect payment details, sensitive personal data, or information from anyone under 13.

Information collected automatically

When you visit this website, certain information is collected automatically through cookies and Google Analytics, including your anonymised IP address, browser type, pages visited, and how you arrived at the site. See my Cookie Policy for full details.

How do I use your information?

I use the information from your contact form to respond to your enquiry and follow up on potential work together. That's it — no funny business.

Automatically collected data helps me understand how visitors use this website so I can improve it. I do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling.

Legal basis for processing (UK GDPR)

I process your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Legitimate interests — to respond to enquiries you have chosen to send me
• Consent — for analytics cookies, which you can accept or decline via the cookie banner on this site

Who do I share your data with?

I do not sell your personal data. Ever. I may share it with the following third-party services that help me run this website:

• Google Analytics — website analytics. Data is anonymised and processed in line with Google's privacy terms.
• Gmail — used to receive and respond to your messages.

These providers are required to keep your data secure and use it only for the purposes I specify.

How long do I keep your data?

Contact form enquiries are kept for up to two years, or until the purpose for which they were collected has been fulfilled.

Analytics data is retained for 14 months (Google Analytics default), after which it is automatically deleted.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data I hold about you
• Correct any inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your data
• Object to how I process your data
• Withdraw consent at any time for cookie-based processing
• Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk

To exercise any of these rights, email me at [email protected]. I'll respond within 30 days.

I may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page will reflect any changes.
