Personal Information Collected by This Website and Why We Collect It
This website collects and uses personal information for the following reasons:
Website Traffic Monitoring
Like most websites, this one uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user activity. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our web pages, and to track their journey through the site. Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, web browser, and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address, which could be used to identify you, but Google does not provide us access to that. We consider Google a third-party data processor compliant with European legislation.
Contact Forms and Email Links
Should you choose to contact us using a contact form or an email link, none of the data you provide will be stored by this website or transferred to any third-party data processors as defined in the section below. Instead, this data will be sent to us via email over the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Our SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as SSL), meaning that the email content is encrypted before being sent across the internet. The email content is decrypted by our local computers and devices.
