Information associated with the guide

Article and image enquiries
Messages can contain your name, email address and attachments. We use them to consider the enquiry, communicate about it and keep a record. Share another person’s information only when relevant and when you are entitled to do so.
Page delivery
Requested URLs, access times, IP addresses and browser information can enter technical records. Services delivering and securing the site may process those records to deliver pages, find errors and prevent abuse.
Browser controls and outside links
Enabled features may use cookies or similar storage. Your browser lets you inspect and manage it, though restrictions can affect a feature. External websites have their own notices; their collection and use of information is outside this notice.

Access to records and retention

Hosting, security and email providers may handle information needed for those functions. Disclosure may also be required to meet legal obligations, address misuse or protect rights.

How long a record is retained depends on its purpose, outstanding enquiries, security needs and relevant obligations. Internet transmission and storage cannot be guaranteed free of risk.

Changes will be recorded here with a new date. Separate services should explain their practices where you use them.
