This privacy policy explains how The Dairy handles information. It covers what may be collected, how it is used, and the steps taken to keep it secure. The site is intended to provide general business information, and most visitors can use it without providing personal details.
Information collected
When you visit the site, certain information may be collected automatically. This can include your IP address, browser type, device, and how you move through the site. This is standard for most websites and helps with basic operation and performance.
If you choose to make contact, for example by email, any details you provide will be received as part of that communication. This may include your name, email address, and any information you include in your message.
How information is used
Information collected automatically is used to keep the site running properly and to understand how it is being used. This may include improving content, identifying technical issues, or reviewing general patterns of use.
Information provided directly, such as through email, is used only to respond to your enquiry or to deal with the matter raised. It is not used for unrelated purposes.
Data sharing
Information is not sold or passed to third parties for marketing purposes. It may be shared where necessary to operate the website, such as with hosting providers or technical services, but only where required for the normal running of the site.
Information may also be disclosed if required by law or where there is a legal obligation to do so.
Data storage and security
Reasonable steps are taken to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. This includes the use of standard security measures appropriate to the type of information held.
However, no system is completely secure, and sending information over the internet always carries some level of risk.
Cookies
The site may use cookies or similar technologies to improve functionality and understand how the site is used. These are small files stored on your device that help with navigation and performance.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Doing so may affect how some parts of the site work.
Links to other websites
The site may include links to external websites. These sites operate independently and have their own privacy policies. The Dairy is not responsible for how those sites handle information.
It is advisable to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
Data retention
Information is kept only for as long as necessary. For general browsing, this is usually limited to short-term technical data. For direct contact, such as email enquiries, information may be retained for a reasonable period to deal with the matter raised.
Information that is no longer needed is deleted or securely disposed of.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law, you may have rights relating to your personal information. This can include requesting access to information held about you, asking for corrections, or requesting that information is deleted where appropriate.
If you wish to make a request, you can do so using the contact details below.
