Along with your submission, the form also records the page you submitted it from.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our web server may automatically log basic technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and the pages you view. These logs are used for security and to keep the Website running properly.
We do not use analytics or advertising tracking tools, such as Google Analytics or the Meta Pixel, on this Website.

- Comply with our legal obligations
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We will not add you to a mailing list unless you ask us to.
4. Legal basis for processing
Where data protection laws require a legal basis, we process your information for one of three reasons. You have asked us to respond to your enquiry, which lets us take steps at your request before entering into a contract. It is in our legitimate interests to operate and secure our Website. Or we are legally required to.
5. Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser.
Our Website does not set tracking or advertising cookies for regular visitors. WordPress may set strictly necessary cookies for logged-in site administrators only, and these do not apply to ordinary visitors.
Some embedded content on our Website comes from third parties who may set their own cookies. See “Third-party services” below.
You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may affect how some embedded content, such as videos, works.
6. Third-party services
We use the following third-party services on our Website. Each has its own privacy policy that governs how it handles your data.
YouTube (Google)
We embed videos from YouTube. Where possible, we use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), which does not store cookies on your device until you play a video. When you play an embedded video, YouTube may collect data such as your IP address and viewing activity, and may set cookies. If you are signed in to a Google account, YouTube may associate this activity with your account. See the Google Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Google Font
Our Website loads fonts from Google Fonts. To deliver these fonts, your browser connects to Google’s servers, which shares your IP address with Google. Google states that it does not use this information to build user profiles. See the Google Fonts privacy FAQ at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq/privacy.
Website hosting
Our Website is hosted by [WPMU DEV / your hosting provider]. Form submissions and server logs are stored on their servers, which may be located outside your country.
Contact form submissions are sent to us by email and may be stored in our email service provider’s systems [e.g. Google Workspace, Microsoft 365].
7. How long we keep your information
We keep contact form submissions and related emails for as long as needed to respond to your enquiry and for our reasonable business records. This is typically no longer than 24 months, unless we are required by law to keep them longer. Server logs are kept for a limited period for security purposes and then deleted.
8. How we protect your information
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information. These include an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, restricted administrative access, and regular software updates. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International transfers
Some of the service providers listed above may store or process your information in countries other than your own. Where this happens, we rely on the safeguards those providers put in place to protect your data.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Ask what personal information we hold about you and request a copy
- Ask us to correct inaccurate information
- Ask us to delete your information
- Object to or restrict how we use your information
- Withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on consent
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [bganther_3@yahoo.com]. We will respond within a reasonable time and in line with applicable law.
11. Children's privacy
Our Website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has sent us their information, please contact us and we will delete it.
