What personal data I collect and why I collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site I collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on my site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Who I share your data with
Your data is not shared. You may receive information from me regarding my teaching organisation, Landmann Studios. You will not receive emails from Landmann Studios unless you opt-in to their mailing list via the LandmannStudios.com website.
How long I retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so I can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on this website (if any), I also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). I am the only website administrator and only I have access to that data.
What rights you have over your data
If you have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data I hold about you, including any data you have provided to me. You can also request that I erase any personal data I hold about you. This does not include any data I am obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where I send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Additional information
I am committed to protecting your personal information and being transparent about what information I hold about you. In order for you to buy prints through my website, I collect a small amount of information about you. This Privacy Notice provides a brief explanation of what I collect and why. It also explains how I look after your data and keep it safe.
If you would like to unsubscribe from my mailing list, either click the unsubscribe link in the footer of any email you receive from me or contact me at andy@andyday.net.
I will keep information which identifies you only if you sign up to my mailing list or place an order on my website. When you place an order, I collect your name, delivery address, billing address, email address and phone number if provided. This is used to fulfill your order. If I don’t collect this personal data, I won’t be able to process and deliver your order and comply with our obligations.
Only if you have chosen to be subscribed to my mailing list will you receive emails about new work, offers, events, articles, and other related news that I hope will be of interest to you. I will not sell, rent or lease our newsletter subscription lists to any third parties. I use MailChimp as our marketing automation platform. By signing up to my mailing list, you acknowledge that the information you provide will be transferred to MailChimp for processing in accordance with their own privacy policy.
Your personal data is stored on password-protected systems and I will never share this information with third parties unless it is required for the delivery of prints or I am required by law to do so. When you make a payment online, I do not store your card details. The payment is processed independently by your bank provider and the company processing your online payment on behalf of the third party that is providing your print.
Data Protection law recognises that certain categories of personal information are more sensitive such as health information, race, religious beliefs and political opinions. I do not collect this type of information. I only collect information that is necessary to process your order, or for email marketing communications.
The GDPR requires me to rely on one or more lawful bases to use your personal information. I consider the grounds listed below to be relevant: a) Consent – when you have given us explicit consent to store and process your data b) Necessity to fulfil a contract (for example, provide you with details necessary to access one of our events you registered for)
I rely on your consent to use your personal data and you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. You can unsubscribe from our mailing list, or request a complete deletion of your data from my databases (right of erasure). You can access (right of access) and request a copy of the personal information I store about you at any time.
