What information do we collect?
This website takes direct inquiries and feedback through a “Contact Us” form (the emails are not stored on the website but are stored by Gmail), it takes meeting bookings through Calendly.com (see their privacy policy here) and the occasional questionnaire/survey for established customers using either Google forms or Survey Monkey.
All of these 3rd parties store at least part of the data outside of the EU.
We do not collect mailing lists, if we want to share something with you we will do that through social media.

We do monitor user activity to enhance content provided on this site. This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (‘Google’). Google Analytics uses ‘cookies’ and JavaScript code to help analyse user activity on websites. The information generated about your use of the website (including your anonymised IP address) will be transmitted to and stored on Google servers in the United States.

Google will use this information to produce user activity reports for this website. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

Google will not associate your IP address with any other data previously held. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. Please note that if cookies are disabled, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.
