privacy policy

My website address is www.rebeccawinward.co.uk. This privacy policy explains how I use any personal information I collect.

What information do I collect about you?

I collect and store names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and project details. This information is given to me by my clients when they commission me, and have therefore consented to me using this information. In most cases, this information refers to companies, but in some cases it might refer to individuals. The basis for holding this information is ‘contractual’, because I need this information for the purpose of working with you.

How do I use this personal information?

I take your privacy seriously, and will only use personal information for the purpose of preparing and issuing your invoice, contacting you regarding payment, or to discuss my work on a project.

I do not use your personal information for marketing purposes. I do not pass, sell or transfer your personal information to any third party.

You as an individual have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) if you think there is a problem with the way I am handling your data.

You also have the right to ask me what personal information I have collected about you and the right to ask us to delete this information. If you wish to do this, please contact me using the form on this website.

Where do we store this personal information, and who has access to it?

I store information on my computer, on my cloud-based email system, and on my cloud-based file storage system.

  • My computer is backed up regularly and protected using up-to-date security software and IT protection which contain firewalls. This network is only accessed by me.
  • I use a cloud-based email system provided by IONOS, and OneDrive online storage. These are only accessed by myself.

Google Analytics

I use Google Analytics to gather information about activity on my website. Google Analytics processes anonymised information about:

  • the pages you visit
  • how long you spend on each page
  • how you got to the site
  • what you click on while you’re visiting the site

No personal information is stored through Google Analytics.

Links to other websites

If you follow a link from this site to another, please read that website’s privacy policy to find out what it does with your personal information.

 

I take the security of personal information very seriously, and work hard to ensure I have up-to-date security software and IT protection. In the event of a security breach, I would notify the individuals affected in writing as soon as possible.
