Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: http://ls297.co.uk.

GDPR

We are a not-for-profit organisation and do not collect any data other than that which you share with us. This data is not stored and deleted once we have dealt with your enquiry.

See https://ico.org.uk/media/for-organisations/documents/1567/exemption-from-registration-for-not-for-profit-organisations.pdf for further details about GDPR.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with the detection of spam.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture (assuming you have a Gravatar account) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images which you supply on the website.

Cookies

** If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

** We are not accepting any comments at this time.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

We don’t share your data with anyone and the only data that we receive are:

  • First name
  • Surname
  • email address
  • Comments (please do not include any personal detail) in this section.

Telephone numbers are not supplied to us but are used to establish that a human rather than a robot is completing our contact form.

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

For how long do we retain your data

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.

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.

What rights you have over your data

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.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Petitions, data sharing policy.

I don’t share your data with anyone and the only data that we receive are:

  • First name
  • Surname
  • Address & postcode
  • email address
  • Finally, whether you live, work or study in West Yorkshire

Telephone numbers are not supplied to us, they are MD5 hashed, and used to establish that a human rather than a robot is completing our contact form.

All petition data collected is for the sole pupose of the petition, and will be provided to the West Yorkshire Mayor’s Office, or Bradford Council as proof that the petition is valid. Once data has been supplied, data will be securely destroyed from my database.
