PRIVACY POLICY

This privacy policy sets out how the website LeanneNorris.co.uk uses and protects any information that you give when you use this website.

Leanne Norris respects the EU’s General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) and this policy explains how this site collects and treats any information you give. You won’t find any complicated legal terms or long passages of unreadable text. There is no desire to trick you into agreeing to something you might later regret.

Leanne Norris values your privacy as much as she does her own, so she is committed to keeping your personal and business information safe. Leanne is uncomfortable with the information companies, governments, and other organisations keep on file, so she asks for only the bare minimum from her customers. She’ll never use your personal information for any reason other than why you gave it, and she’ll never give anyone access to it unless she’s forced to by law.

How This Site Uses Cookies

A cookie is a small file that asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

LeanneNorris.co.uk uses traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps Leanne to analyse data about web page traffic and improve the website in order to tailor it to her customers needs. Leanne only uses this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help to provide you with a better website, by enabling this website to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of this website.

Links to Other Sites

This website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave this site, you should note that Leanne does not have any control over that other website. Therefore, she cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement.

Controlling your Information

You may request details of personal information which LeanneNorris.co.uk holds about you under the Data Protection Act 1998. A small fee will be payable. If you would like a copy of the information held on you please email Leanne or call 07961 755532.

The steps that are taken to keep your information private

Where your information is stored on third-party services, Leanne restricts access only to people who need it. Leanne stores passwords in LastPass, an encrypted password manager, uses a different, randomly generated password for each service, and never uses the same password twice.

The computers are protected by a passcode. These computers ask for authentication whenever they’re started or after 15 minutes of inactivity. Leanne’s mobile devices are also protected by a fingerprint or facial recognition.

 

Removing your information

At any point, you may delete your account, however as this is potentially very destructive (removing license authorisations for any sites held) Leanne asks that you contact her if you wish to request this. She will also remove data linked to you stored with third parties.

 

How to complain

Complaints are taken very seriously. If you’ve any reason to complain about the ways your privacy is handled, please email sayhello@leannenorris.co.uk.
