Information Collected
If you use the contact form, the information collected may include your name, email address, the nature of your enquiry and anything you choose to include in your message.
How Information Is Used
Contact-form information is used solely to read, assess and respond to enquiries. Personal information is not sold or used for unrelated marketing.
Email Subscriptions
If you choose to subscribe to new historical essays by email, your email address and subscription preferences are processed through WordPress.com and Jetpack for the purpose of sending new-post notifications. The lawful basis for this processing is your consent. You can withdraw that consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email or by changing your WordPress.com subscription settings.
WordPress.com and Jetpack
This website is hosted by WordPress.com and uses Jetpack services for functions including contact forms, email subscriptions, security and site statistics. Information submitted through these services may therefore be processed by Automattic in accordance with its own privacy arrangements.
Cookies, Statistics and External Content
This website uses WordPress.com and Jetpack for security, contact forms, subscriptions and site statistics. It also uses Google Analytics, connected through Site Kit, to understand how visitors find the website and which pages they read. Analytics information may include pages visited, referring websites, browser and device details, approximate location and interactions with the site.
Google Analytics may use cookies or similar technologies to distinguish visits and produce usage reports. Information generated through Google’s services is processed by Google under its own privacy arrangements. Further information is available in Google’s explanation of information collected from partner websites and its cookie information.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Pages may also contain embedded content or links to external websites, whose privacy practices are outside my control.
Retention and Security
Enquiries are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to answer them, maintain an appropriate record of correspondence or meet a legal obligation. Reasonable care is taken when handling personal information, although no online service can guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights
You may ask what personal information is held about you, request correction or deletion where appropriate, or raise a concern about the handling of your information.
To make a privacy enquiry, please use the Contact page. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.

Unless otherwise stated, the written content of this website is copyright Antony David Davies. Historical photographs, postcards and archival images are used from my own collection, from material purchased or reproduced with permission, or from public and archival sources where the relevant rights and attribution have been considered.
