What personal information we collect, and why

When you visit our website

Our cookie

A cookie is a small, secure and non-invasive text file that is automatically saved to your web browser by a web server when you visit our website.
This cookie enables our website to remember your actions and preferences, so you don’t have to continually redo things whenever you revisit our site or go from one page to another.
For example, it will remember if you’ve already clicked “No” on a prompt to subscribe to our newsletter so you don’t have to say “No” again, it will remember the information you enter into form so you don’t have to re-enter it, and it will remember your browser’s language setting so the website display the correct language, faster.
The information collected by this cookie cannot be used to identify you personally and the pattern data is fully under our control.

Google reCAPTCHA v3

When you visit our website, a Google technology called reCAPTCHA v3 attempts to determine if you are a real person or a ‘bot’. We do this in order to fight spam and abuse on our website. For example, it helps us prevent bots from:

  • Sending spam and malicious emails using our contact forms;
  • Clicking on ads to generate fraudulent ad revenue for the advertiser;
  • Illegally copying (‘scraping’) our content for subsequent plagiarism;

Google reCAPTCHA v3 does this by saving a cookie to your computer or mobile device, and by using other tracking technologies. It collects some hardware and software information, such as device and application data, tracks your use of our website, and seeks to determine if you are logged in to a Google account. It then sends this information to Google for analysis on its servers, which are located in the US.

Note that the information collected by the reCAPTCHA cookie cannot be used to identify you personally and the pattern data is fully under our control. Note also that reCAPTCHA is under the control of Google, and processing and sharing of your personal data by Google Analytics is governed by Google’s privacy policies.

When you submit a contact form on our website

When you contact us by submitting one of the contact forms on our website, we collect and store your name and email address, as well as any information you send.

We collect this information in order to understand and respond to your request, and to provide you with future customer service.

How we store and secure your personal information

When you visit our website

The information our cookie collects from website visitors is stored on our servers, which are protected by password, 2-factor authentication (2FA) and firewall, located in a controlled facility outside of the EU, and accessible only to authorized personnel. This data is then automatically backed up, using an encrypted third-party tool called s3cmd, to our Amazon S3 backup server, where it is password protected and encrypted.

The information collected by Google reCAPTCHA v3 is transmitted by Google to a Google server located in the US. reCAPTCHA is under the control of Google, and processing and sharing of your personal data by Google Analytics is governed by Google’s privacy policies.

When you submit one of the contact forms on our website, your information is protected from the moment you enter it into the form.
