What personal data we collect and why we collect it<\/h1>\n
When you visit our websites or use our services, we collect personal data. The ways we collect it can be broadly categorised into the following:<\/p>\n
\n- Information you provide to us directly:<\/b> When you visit or use some parts of our websites and\/or services we might ask you to provide personal data to us. For example, we ask for your contact information, participate in community forums, join us on social media, take part in training and events, contact us with questions or request support. If you don\u2019t want to provide us with personal data, you don\u2019t have to, but it might mean you can\u2019t use some parts of our websites or services.<\/li>\n
- Information we collect automatically: <\/b>We collect some information about you automatically when you visit our websites or use our services, like your IP address and device type. We also collect information when you navigate through our websites and services, including what pages you looked at and what links you clicked on. This information is useful for us as it helps us get a better understanding of how you\u2019re using our websites and services so that we can continue to provide the best experience possible\u00a0(e.g., by personalising the content you see).<\/li>\n
- Information we get from third parties:<\/b> The majority of information we collect, we collect directly from you. Sometimes we might collect personal data about you from other sources, such as publicly available materials or trusted third parties like our marketing and research partners.\u00a0We use this information to supplement the personal data we already hold about you, in order to better inform, personalise and improve our services, and to validate the personal data you provide.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
How long we retain your data<\/h1>\n
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.<\/p>\n
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. 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.<\/p>\n
What rights you have over your data<\/h1>\n
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.<\/p>\n
Where we send your data<\/h1>\n
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.<\/p>\n
