General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)

Most people have heard of GDPR, the updated set of data-protection rules that became enforceable on 25 May 2018. You may have heard that this means you have to give your explicit consent before being signed up to receive marketing communications. That’s a good thing but the GDPR is about more than that.

Briefly, you also have the right to:

• Learn how your data is being used
• Request that your data is deleted
• Retrieve your data in a format you can read and re-use elsewhere

Email newsletters

We use MailChimp to send our email newsletters to subscribers.

When you sign up to any of our email campaigns, you go through a double opt-in system before your details are added to our list. That means you have to:

1. enter your email address and name via a form on our website, and

2. click an activation link in a confirmation email that is sent following your submission

There’s an ‘unsubscribe’ link at the bottom of each email, so it’s easy to remove yourself from the list should you no longer wish to hear from me.
