If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will be set to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, several cookies will be set up to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.).
Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited the other website directly.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely to recognise 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 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 view and edit that information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. 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.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

When you send us a message using the contact form on this website, we receive the details you enter (such as your name, email address and message) so that we can reply to you.

Class bookings are made through TidyCal, and some workshop payments have been taken through Stripe. These services process your booking and payment details under their own privacy policies.

If you join our mailing list, your name and email address are stored by our email newsletter provider so that we can send you class news. Every email includes a link to unsubscribe.
