Privacy policy

• Email addresses: If you sign up for email updates or provide your email for something you requested, such as a download, we collect your email address.
• Messages: If you write to us through the contact form, we collect your email address, your message, and whether you asked for email updates.
• Email subscriptions: If you choose to receive email updates, we keep a record of when and where you subscribed so we can manage your subscription and consent.
• Analytics: We use a privacy-friendly analytics tool. It doesn't use cookies, doesn't track you personally, and doesn't store personal information. It only shows us anonymous statistics such as which pages are most visited, what devices people use, or how long someone stays on a page.

That's all we collect. No hidden trackers, no personal profiling.

• To reply to your message.
• To provide something you requested, such as sending you a download.
• To send you occasional email updates if you've subscribed.
• To understand how people use the site so we can improve content and layout.

We never sell your data, and we never share it with advertisers.

If you subscribe, we may occasionally email you about significant updates such as new products, features, content, or projects.

This is not a regular newsletter. We only send emails when there is something relevant to share.

We send these emails based on your consent. You can withdraw your consent and unsubscribe at any time.

We use a small number of trusted services to keep things running:

• A database and hosting provider, to securely store and process data.
• An email provider, to send emails and manage subscriptions and unsubscribes.
• An analytics provider, to give us anonymous usage data.
• A team messaging tool, where we're told about new messages and sign-ups.

They only process the information needed to provide their services.

Some of these providers may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, appropriate data-protection safeguards are used.

Some pages include YouTube videos. Until you press play, you see only a picture from our site, and nothing loads from YouTube.

Once you press play, the video loads from YouTube, run by Google, in its privacy-enhanced mode. YouTube then receives details such as your IP address, browser and device, and may use cookies or similar technologies.

Google handles this under Google's privacy policy (opens in a new tab), and we don't receive any of it. If you'd rather not share it, just don't press play.

You are always in control of your data:

• You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time using the unsubscribe link included in them.
• You can contact us anytime via Contact us if you'd like to see, correct, or remove personal data we hold about you.
• You can withdraw your consent to receive email updates at any time.

If you have concerns about how your personal data is handled, you also have the right to make a complaint to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

• We keep your email address while it is needed for the purpose for which you provided it.
• We keep your message and email address for as long as we need them to reply to you and follow up.
• If you unsubscribe, we stop sending you marketing emails. We may keep a minimal record of your email address and unsubscribe status so we do not contact you again.
• Analytics data is anonymous and cannot be linked back to you personally.

Our content is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child where we should not have, we will take appropriate steps to remove it.

If we make changes to this policy, we'll update this page so you always know what information we collect and how it's used.
