1. Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
- Contact Form Submissions: When you submit our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message.
- Automatically Collected Data: When you visit the Site, our server may automatically log your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and pages visited. This data is used for security and site performance purposes only.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
3. Email Communications
Contact form submissions are delivered to our team via Resend, a transactional email service. Resend processes message data in order to deliver emails on our behalf. See Resend's Privacy Policy for details. We do not use your email address for marketing communications unless you have explicitly opted in.
4. Cookies
The Site itself does not set any tracking or analytics cookies. Cloudflare, which provides infrastructure services for the Site, may set cookies for security and performance purposes. These are strictly functional and do not track you across third-party websites.

6. Data Retention
Contact form submissions are retained in our email inbox for as long as necessary to respond to and manage your enquiry. Server logs are retained for up to 30 days and then purged.
7. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information from unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of your personal data.
