Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 9th, 2025

At Sage & Sea Events, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and how we keep it safe. By using our website (https://sageandseaevents.co.uk), you agree to the terms outlined below.

What Information We Collect

When you interact with our site or book a service, we may collect:

Your name, email address, phone number, and event details when you fill out a form or make an enquiry
Comments you leave on our blog or posts
IP address and browser details to help with spam detection
Images you upload (if any), though we recommend not including location data

We may also collect anonymised data using cookies and similar technologies to help improve your experience.

Comments

If you leave a comment on the site, we collect the information you enter in the form, as well as your IP address and browser type to help prevent spam.
An anonymised version of your email (a hash) may be used with the Gravatar service to show your profile picture. You can read their privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy.

Once your comment is approved, your profile photo may be visible publicly in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, we recommend removing any embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site could download and extract location data from images posted publicly.

Cookies

We use cookies to help improve your browsing experience.
For example:

If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name and email in cookies for future convenience.
Temporary cookies help check if your browser accepts cookies.
If you log in (if this feature becomes available), cookies will store login info and display preferences.

You can clear or disable cookies in your browser settings anytime.

Embedded Content

Articles or blog posts on this site may include content (like videos or images) from other websites. Embedded content behaves just like visiting that website directly and may collect data, use cookies, and track your activity if you’re logged in to that third-party service.

How We Use Your Information

We may use your data to:

Respond to enquiries and confirm bookings
Communicate about your event or services
Send updates or marketing (only if you opt in)
Improve the functionality and content of our site

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset (if accounts are enabled), your IP address may be included in the reset email. We do not share your information with other businesses unless required to by law or to fulfil your service (e.g. contacting a food vendor at your request).

How Long We Keep Your Data

If you leave a comment, it and its related data are stored indefinitely so we can recognise and approve future comments automatically.

If users create an account (not currently active), we’ll retain personal details in your profile, which you can edit or delete anytime — except for your username. Website administrators can also view and edit that information.

Your Rights

You can request:

A copy of the personal data we hold about you
That we update or correct your information
That we delete your data, where legally allowed

To do so, please email us at: sageandseaevents@outlook.com

Where Your Data Is Sent

Comments may be checked through automated spam detection tools.

Changes to This Policy

We may occasionally update this Privacy Policy. Any changes will be reflected on this page with the latest effective date.
