Privacy Policy
Hi there! I'm Jordan Borg, a freelance copywriter and communications strategist. Welcome to my website. Your privacy is incredibly important to me. As such, I want to make sure you feel safe and secure while using my website, all in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) rules in the UK. For those accessing my website outside of the UK, please be aware that your information may be transferred and processed in the UK or other jurisdictions with different data protection laws. So, let me break it down for you in a conversational and easy-to-understand way.
First things first, my goal is to provide you with a positive online experience. My website is designed to list my services and provide quotes to potential clients. When you visit my website, I may collect some personal information from you. This includes things like your name, email address, contact details, and any other information you voluntarily provide through my contact forms or when you request a quote. I might also gather non-personal information, like your IP address.
I collect this information in order to respond to your inquiries promptly, provide excellent customer support, and offer you the best possible experience on my website. Additionally, I may use your contact details to keep you informed about important updates regarding my services.
As for how I handle your data, I'll only process your personal information when I have a valid legal basis to do so. This might be because it's necessary for the performance of a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, your consent, or my legitimate interests. I won't use your data for any purposes that don't align with why I collected it in the first place. That's my promise to you.
Now, let's talk cookies (no, not the yummy kind). Cookies are tiny files that help me remember your preferences and improve my website's functionality. I use cookies to enhance your experience on my website. Here is a list of the cookies I use:
- Essential Website/Session Cookies: these are strictly necessary cookies that enable my website to function as intended.
- Analytical/Performance Cookies: these enable my website provider to monitor the performance of my website (for example, page loading speeds) to ensure that everything is functioning correctly.
- Functionality Cookies: these enable visitors to be recognised when they return to my website to improve their user experience.
By using my website, you're giving me consent to use cookies as explained above.
Rest assured, I won't sell, rent, or lease your data to anyone. Your personal information is precious, and I take its security seriously. However, there might be instances where I need to share your information with trusted service providers who help me operate my website or provide my services.
My data retention and destruction policy, aligned with UK GDPR, is to keep personal data only as long as necessary. I regularly review and securely dispose of outdated or unnecessary data using safe methods like permanent deletion or shredding.
As an individual, you have rights when it comes to your personal information. You can access, rectify, or erase your data. You can also restrict or object to certain processing activities. And you can withdraw your consent at any time. If you have any questions, want to exercise your rights, or just need to chat about your privacy, feel free to reach out to me using the contact information below.
I've implemented technical measures to keep your data safe. I review and update my security practices regularly to make sure your information stays secure and confidential.
I may update this Privacy Policy every now and then to reflect changes in my practices or legal requirements. I recommend checking back periodically for any updates. If I make changes and you keep using my website, it means you're okay with the revised Privacy Policy.
While I've done my best to provide a comprehensive privacy policy, please note that this policy was written with the assistance of ChatGPT. If there's something I missed or if you have a specific question or concern that wasn't addressed, feel free to reach out.
That's it! If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy, you can email me at [email protected].
