Your data, explained plainly.
The Short Version
What We Collect
Some of this you hand us directly. Some is gathered automatically just by visiting the site.
Information you give us
Collected automatically
We do not knowingly collect special category data such as health information, political opinions or biometric data, and you should not send it to us.
Why We Use It
We don't share your data with third parties for their own marketing, and we don't sell it.
Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use them in four categories. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time through our cookie settings or your browser settings, though blocking cookies may stop parts of the site working.
Strictly Necessary
Keep the site secure and remember your cookie preferences. These cannot be switched off.
Analytics
Count visits and tell us which articles are being read.
Advertising
Set by our advertising partners to deliver ads and limit how often you see the same one.
Functional
Set by embedded content, such as video or social posts, when you load an article containing them.
Who We Share Data With
We share data only with service providers who process it on our behalf under contract: our web host, our analytics provider, our advertising partners, our email platform, and our comment spam filtering service. Each may use the data only to provide that service to us. We may also disclose data where legally required, or to establish or defend legal claims.
Some of these providers operate outside your country, including in the United States. Where data leaves the UK or the European Economic Area, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism.
