What we collect
If you use our contact form, we collect your name, your email address and your message. If you email us or message us on social media, we receive the details you send.
How we use it
We use your details to reply to you. Our legal basis is our legitimate interest in answering your enquiry. We don't sell your details or use them for marketing.
Who handles it
Our website and contact form are hosted by Netlify, a US company, which processes form messages and basic visitor logs for us, so your details may be stored outside the UK. Messages reach us through Gmail, run by Google. Our fonts load from Google Fonts, so Google receives your device's IP address when you visit. If you follow a link to Instagram, its own privacy policy applies.
How long we keep it
We delete enquiries once they've been dealt with, and no later than when our Young Enterprise company closes at the end of the programme.
Cookies and analytics
This site doesn't use cookies or analytics at the moment, so you won't see a cookie banner. If we turn on Google Analytics in future, it will only run if you press Accept on a banner, and you'll be able to change your choice at any time using Cookie settings at the bottom of the page. See our cookie policy.
Children
Our contact form is meant for adults and for young people aged 13 or over. If you're under 13, please ask a parent or guardian to contact us for you.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you. To ask, email hello.groundedye@gmail.com and we'll reply within one month. If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
