Privacy Policy and Your Data
This page sets out, in plain terms, what happens to your information when you visit this website. Reading it alongside our Terms of Use gives you the full picture of how the site works and what you can expect from us.
Information we collect
We keep collection to a minimum. Most visitors browse without telling us anything about themselves. The information we may receive falls into two groups:
- Details you choose to share, such as your name and email address when you send us a message.
- Details gathered automatically, such as the type of device and browser you use, the pages you view, how long you stay and the general region you are visiting from.
How we use it
We use this information to reply to your questions, keep the site running smoothly, fix problems and understand which pages readers find useful. We do not sell your personal details, and we will not send you marketing messages unless you have clearly asked for them.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files saved on your device. Some are needed for the site to load properly. Others help us count visits and remember your preferences. You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings, although a few features may not work as intended if you do.
Sharing with others
We occasionally rely on trusted service providers, for example to host the site or measure traffic. They may handle limited information on our behalf and are expected to protect it. We may also share details if the law requires it. Some pages link to outside websites; once you leave this site, their own privacy policies apply.
Keeping your data safe
We take sensible steps to protect your information, including secure connections and restricted access. No online system is completely risk-free, but we work to keep risks low and hold data only for as long as it is genuinely needed.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you can ask to see the personal information we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, object to how it is used, or ask us to limit its use. If you are unhappy with our response, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
Updates to this policy
We may revise this policy from time to time. When we do, the new version will appear on this page, so it is worth checking back now and then.
Getting in touch
Questions or requests about your data can be sent to info@jwcockettandson.co.uk, or you can reach us through our Contact page. We aim to respond promptly.
