How long we retain your data

Messages sent using this website contact form will be processed by anti-spam software, details will be sent to the anti-spam provider as it required to use their service. Messages identified as spam will be removed but some data retained to aid spam identification.

Messages accepted by this website will be stored in it’s messaging system and forwarded as email messages. These will be treated as personal messages to me.

When we enable the comments feature, if you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we 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). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Messages sent to me using the contact form will be treated as personal e-mail messages, handled accordingly and in due course removed completely. We do not retain data or messages for any purpose other than engaging in correspondence with the sender, and only when we have determined it is appropriate to do so in accordance with our anti-spam and no sales contact policy.
