It may include your computer’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, your browser type and version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on each page, and other details.
Device data
I may also collect data about the device you’re using to access my website. This data may include the device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, device settings, and geo-location data. What I collect can depend on the individual settings of your device and software. I recommend checking the policies of your device manufacturer or software provider to learn what information they make available to me.
Personal information
I may ask for personal information, such as your:
- Name
- Email
- Date of birth
- Phone/mobile number
- Home/Mailing address
- Work address
- Website address
- Payment information
2. Legal bases for processing
I will process your personal information lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner. I collect and process information about you only where I have legal bases for doing so.
These legal bases depend on the services you use and how you use them, meaning I collect and use your information only where:
it’s necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract (for example, when I provide a service you request from me);
it satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote my services, and to protect my legal rights and interests;
you give me consent to do so for a specific purpose (for example, you might consent to me sending you my newsletter); or
I need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.
Where you consent to my use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time (but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place).
I don’t keep personal information for longer than is necessary. While I retain this information, I will protect it within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification. That said, I advise that no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure and cannot guarantee absolute data security. If necessary, I may retain your personal information for my compliance with a legal obligation or in order to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person.
3. Collection and use of information
I may collect, hold, use and disclose information for the following purposes and personal information will not be further processed in a manner that is incompatible with these purposes:
to enable you to customize or personalize your experience of my website;
to attribute any content (eg. posts and comments) you submit that I publish on my website;
to process any transactional or ongoing payments;
to deliver products and/or services to you;
to enable you to access and use my website, associated applications and associated social media platforms;
to contact and communicate with you;
for internal record keeping and administrative purposes;
for analytics, market research and business development, including to operate and improve my website, associated applications and associated social media platforms;
for advertising and marketing, including to send you promotional information about my products and services and information about third parties that I consider may be of interest to you; and
to comply with my legal obligations and resolve any disputes that I may have.
4. Disclosure of personal information to third parties
I may disclose personal information to:
third party service providers for the purpose of enabling them to provide their services, including (without limitation) IT service providers, data storage, web-hosting and server providers, debt collectors, maintenance or problem-solving providers, marketing or advertising providers, professional advisors and payment systems operators;
courts, tribunals, regulatory authorities, and law enforcement officers, as required by law, in connection with any actual or prospective legal proceedings, or in order to establish, exercise or defend my legal rights; and
third parties, including agents or sub-contractors, who assist me in providing information, products, services or direct marketing to you.
5. International transfers of personal information
The personal information I collect is stored and processed where I or my partners, affiliates and third-party providers maintain facilities. By providing me with your personal information, you consent to the disclosure to these overseas third parties.
I will ensure that any transfer of personal information from countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) to countries outside the EEA will be protected by appropriate safeguards, for example by using standard data protection clauses approved by the European Commission, or the use of binding corporate rules or other legally accepted means.
Where I transfer personal information from a non-EEA country to another country, you acknowledge that third parties in other jurisdictions may not be subject to similar data protection laws to the ones in my jurisdiction. There are risks if any such third party engages in any act or practice that would contravene the data privacy laws in my jurisdiction and this might mean that you will not be able to seek redress under my jurisdiction’s privacy laws.
