We hope that you enjoy using our site. We’ve prepared this Privacy Notice to help you better understand and to feel more confident about how we use your personal data here at: WEB.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at: info@madewithweb.com
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Notice is where we explain to you what personal information is collected when you visit our site, how it is collected, how we may use that information, where we store it, how long we store it for, and how we protect it. We will also explain your rights in relation to your personal information.
WHAT THIS PRIVACY NOTICE GOVERNS
This Privacy Notice applies to our website www.madewithweb.com and any other services that we may provide to you through our site.
In the context of this Privacy Notice "personal information" means information which, on its own or in combination with other information, can be used to identify you, in particular by reference to an identifier such as your name, your address, or location data.
This Privacy Notice will govern how we may use that personal information.
Because we are a business located in Scotland the personal information that you give us or that we collect from you will be held under United Kingdom data protection legislation, the General Data Protection Regulation / GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 / DPA (but we’ll just refer to this as "the legislation"). The legislation requires that we tell you that we are a data controller for your personal information or, in other words, we determine the purposes for which and the manner in which any of your personal information are, or are to be, processed by us.

If you do not click or select the "I Agree" button that appears in the popup at the bottom of your screen then we will endeavour no to collect your personal information – this is subject to the caveat below.

Caveat: Even if you do not click or select the "I Agree" button there is still some information that we may automatically collect about you – this normally isn’t personal information but rather technical information sent by your device and used to connect your computer, tablet, or mobile device to the Internet, including your browser type and version, the time when you visit our site, your time zone setting, certain browser plug-in types and versions, operating system and platform. This type of information is sent by you to our site automatically and it isn’t something that we can prevent.

In order for us to implement these buttons on our site and connect them to the relevant social networks and external sites, there are scripts that are executed from domains owned by third-parties and outside of our control.
You should be aware that these sites are likely to be collecting information about what you are doing all around the Internet, including on our site. So if you click on any of these buttons, these sites will be registering that action and may use that information. In some cases these sites will be registering the fact that you are visiting our site, and the specific pages you are on, even if you don’t click on the button but are already or automatically logged into their services, like Google and Facebook.

Depending on the type of campaign we might give you the ability to select how you would like to be contacted but this might not always be possible due to technical issues.
If you opt-in to receive communication then we may need to pass your personal information to select third parties who are responsible for facilitating communication with you on our behalf.

Additionally, we can’t just release your personal information to anyone. We can only release your personal information to you or an authorised third party who can demonstrate that you consented to have your personal information released – this is a legal requirement. Therefore, it is important for us to ensure that we confirm your identity before we can release any personal information.
If you send us a request to provide you with a copy of your personal information then we may ask you to provide some identification.
