Advertising and Google

The Site is funded by advertising served through Google Ad Manager and other Google advertising products.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the internet.
You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info or, in Europe, youronlinechoices.eu.
Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

If you decline personalised advertising through the consent window, you may still see ads, but they will be non-personalised and based on context, such as the page you are reading.

Legal bases (EEA, UK and Switzerland)

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on: consent for non-essential cookies and personalised advertising; legitimate interests for operating, securing and improving the Site and for non-personalised advertising; and legal obligation where the law requires us to process data.

We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information with service providers that help us run the Site, such as our hosting provider (Vercel), analytics (Google Analytics), email tools, advertising partners (Google and the vendors it works with), and Meta, whose Meta Pixel measures visits from our Facebook and Instagram ads on some campaign landing pages. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect our rights or users' safety, or as part of a business transfer.

International transfers

Our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. Where required, transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

How long we keep information

We keep emails for as long as needed to deal with your request and for a reasonable period afterwards. Server logs and advertising data are kept by our providers under their own retention schedules, typically no longer than 26 months.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or port your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent at any time. You can withdraw cookie consent at any time through the consent window Google shows on your first visit, reopened from the privacy link it provides. To make a request, contact us. You also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority.

California residents. Under the CCPA/CPRA, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, use and disclose; to request deletion or correction; and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. You can opt out through the consent window, by enabling Global Privacy Control in your browser, and you may contact us to confirm. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

Children

The Site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will change the "Last updated" date above, and we will give more prominent notice of significant changes.
