Privacy policies are boring but this site needs to have one because of the EU’s GDPR regulations that came into effect in May 2018.

I take the security and privacy of your personal data extremely seriously, and this Privacy Policy contains details of how I handle that information.

You will find full details of the privacy policy on this page, but the first part of the document supplies a quick summary.

Do you collect personal data?

Yes. If you email me through the contact form I will have your name and email address. I used to allow comments but these are now disabled on all posts so I no longer have access to your IP address.

What personal data you collect?

Just your name and email if you use the contact form.

Do you share personal data with any third parties?

No.

Do you sell personal data to any third parties?

No.

Do you send marketing emails?

Yes – but only if you’ve given me your explicit consent.
