Who we share your data with

We do not sell your data to anyone.

We use the MailChimp system for sending our event notification emails.

This information may also be shared with law enforcement agencies for the purposes of prosecution if we become aware of criminal activity or nefarious use. We may use Google Analytics to see how Visitors use our site and to help us improve your experience and the content we provide.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

We do not hold that data on this site. Your payment data is obfuscated and no complete card details are retained on these third-party e-commerce platforms. We may retain customer data as part of our accounting records in these systems for up to 2 years to cover the current accounting period and extended while we make up our accounts, which we then archive for up to 7 years, in line with UK accounting practice.
