Privacy Policy

Purpose

Hi, I’m Mike Little. Welcome to the privacy policy for Zed1.com. I wrote it to let you know when I collect personal information and what I do with it. I’ll only use your personal information as set out in this policy.

I may need to update this policy from time to time. If I do, I’ll add a post to the site explaining the changes or update the changes at the bottom of the policy.

The information I collect

You may disclose personal information to me when you subscribe to the Mike Little or Zed1 mailing lists, add comments or other material to the site, or use my contact form. You don’t have to though. You can view the site and subscribe to its feed incognito.

People who will be able to see it

I’m the main person that will be able to see the information you provide. Anyone who may help me with the site over time may also be able to see it but they won’t be able to share it or use it for their own purposes.

If the personal information you provide forms part of material that you have submitted to be published, members of the public may also see it.

Note: All communication with this site is transmitted over a secure and encrypted channel. If you do not see a padlock in your browser address bar, please don’t use the site.

Who holds the information

I will hold the information. This site is hosted by my company Zed1.com Limited and I use MailChimp to manage my mailing lists so those services will also hold the information, on my behalf.

How I’ll use the information

I’ll only use your personal information to communicate with you, publish comments and other material you ask to be published and for any other purpose made clear to you at the point of collection. In addition to news of site updates, I may send occasional emails to you about other matters relevant to zed1.com, its audience, or any related site. You’ll be able to unsubscribe from my email list at any time, no questions asked.

I won’t disclose your personal information to third parties unless I need to do so to defend my legal position or the law requires me to do so.

How long the information will be held

I’ll hold the information for as long as I’m providing Zed1.com or any related site. When I no longer need it for such purposes, I’ll delete it. You can still unsubscribe from the mailing list at any time and I’ll delete your personal information if you’d like me to. Just ask.

Other information and cookies

I may collect statistical information about visits to the site to help me understand its usage (this information is anonymous). Zed1.com and related tools may use cookies for this and other purposes. The cookies that WordPress generates for commenters are described in the WordPress codex and Google explains the cookies that Google Analytics sets on the Google Developers site. You can usually remove or block cookies by using settings in your browser.

Get in touch

Feel free to get in touch if you’d like to see the personal information about you that I have stored, or to ask for corrections to such personal information, or if you have any concerns about your privacy. You’ll understand that I may need to ask for proof of your identity before providing you with any personal information.
