Privacy policy.

This Privacy Notice explains how I and SquareSpace process personal information provided by you and outlines your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation. 

WHAT IS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION? 

Personal information means any information that can identify you, for example your name, email address and physical address. 

WHAT IS ‘PROCESSING’ OF PERSONAL INFORMATION? 

Personal information is processed when it is dealt with in any way, for example collected, recorded, stored, used, disclosed or deleted.  

WHY IS THIS PRIVACY NOTICE NECESSARY? 

The General Data Protection Regulation requires persons or organisations which process personal information to provide the person concerned with certain information. 

WHAT INFORMATION DOES THIS SITE COLLECT

If you voluntarily sign up for my newsletter or blog, this site will record your email address. You can refuse to supply personal information, but that will exclude you from certain related activities such as receiving newsletters, blogs, and free offers. When subscribers click on a link in one of my emails or fills out a form, the site may record this information (see below how this information is used).

Subscribers may unsubscribe at any time. You may ask for all your data to be deleted at any time.

GIVEAWAYS AND CONTESTS

If you enter a giveaway, your email address is collected. If you win a physical prize, you will be asked to give your name and physical address.

NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION

This website may collect non-personal information about visitors when they interact with the site. This information may include the browser name, means of connection to the site, and other non-identifying information.

COOKIES

This website uses cookies and similar technologies, which are small files or pieces of text that download to a device when a visitor accesses a website or app. For information about viewing the cookies dropped on your device, visit The cookies Squarespace uses.

These functional and required cookies are always used, which allow Squarespace, our hosting platform, to securely serve this website to you. 

These analytics and performance cookies are used on this website, as described below, only when you acknowledge our cookie banner. This website uses analytics and performance cookies to view site traffic, activity, and other data.

VISITOR DATA

When you buy something on this website, we collect personal information from you to fulfill the order. We may collect information like your:

  • Billing and shipping address

  • Details relating to your purchase

  • Email address

  • Name

  • Phone number

We share this information with Squarespace, our online store hosting provider, so that they can provide website services to us.

As you go through checkout, this site may auto-complete your shipping and billing address by sharing what you type with the Google Places API and returning suggestions to you to improve your checkout experience.

HOW IS THE INFORMATION USED?

Newsletter and blog subscribers’ names and emails will only be used for receiving the newsletters, the blog, or communication from me. 

Giveaway entrants will be sent emails only about the giveaway, unless they also signed up for the newsletter or blog.

Information on which email links are clicked on the most will help me choose links that interest readers in future emails.

I may use affiliate codes in some of the emails or on the site. 

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Subscriber information is never shared with a third party. The only exception is that email addresses may occasionally be used to create lookalike audiences for online marketing. This in no way distributes the emails or signs subscribers up to any other services.

THIRD-PARTY LINKS

Sometimes I will include third-party links through email or on the website. These sites have their own policies and you should read those before subscribing or purchasing from them.

SECURITY OF INFORMATION

All information is saved by Squarespace and only I can access it. Should a data breach ever occur, subscribers will be notified within 7 days.

USE OF THE WEBSITE BY MINORS

All subscribers must be 18 or older or have the consent of a parent or guardian.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

I may update this Privacy Policy at any time. A notice about such changes will be emailed to subscribers. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to review this Privacy Policy periodically and become aware of modifications.

By visiting and using janemcparkes.com, you signify your acceptance of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you can simply not use the site. Continued use of the site means you accept the policy and any periodic changes.
