Use of cookies
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files saved to the user’s computer’s hard drive that track, save and store information about the user’s interactions and usage of the website. This allows the website, through its server, to provide the users with a tailored experience within this website.
What do we use cookies for?

We use anonymous session cookies (short-term cookies that disappear when you close your browser) to help you navigate the website and make the most of the features.
This website uses tracking software to monitor its visitors to better understand how they use it. This software is provided by Google Analytics which uses cookies to track visitor usage.

Personal information
Whilst using our website, software applications or services, you may be required to provide personal information (name, address, email, etc.). We will use this information to administer our website, applications, client databases and marketing material. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation 2018. Further, by providing email details, you consent to Cathean Ltd contacting you using that method. You have the right at any time to request a copy of the personal information we hold on you.

Information collection and use
How do we collect information?
Cathean Ltd collects information in the following way:
– When you directly give it to us (“Directly Provided Data”)
When you sign up for our site, or communicate with us, you may choose to voluntarily give us certain information – for example, by filling in text boxes or completing registration forms. All this information requires a direct action by you at that time in order for us to receive it.

How long do we keep your data for?
Cathean Ltd will not retain your personal information longer than necessary. We will hold onto the information you provide either while your account is in existence, or as needed to be able to provide the Services to you. If legally required or if it is reasonably necessary to meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and abuse, or enforce our Terms and Conditions, we may also retain some of your information for a limited period of time as required, even after you have closed your account or it is no longer needed to provide the Services to you.

Contact form
Cathean Ltd will not sell or rent your personally identifiable information, gathered as a result of filling out the site contact form, to anyone.
Choosing how we use your data
We understand that you trust us with your personal information and we are committed to ensuring you can manage the privacy and security of your personal information yourself.
With respect to the information relating to you that ends up in our possession, and recognising that it is your choice to provide us with your personally identifiable information, we commit to giving you the ability to do all of the following:
– You can verify the details you have submitted to Cathean Ltd by contacting us directly at Kathryn@cathean.co.uk. Our security procedures mean that we may request proof of identity before we reveal information, including your email address and possibly your address.

– You can also contact us by the same method to change, correct, or delete your personal information controlled by Cathean Ltd regarding your profile at any time. Please note that, if you have shared any information with others through social media channels, that information may remain visible, even if your account is deleted.

– You are also free to close your account through our account settings. If you do so, your account will be deactivated. However, we may retain archived copies of your information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes (including to help address fraud and spam).

– You can always feel free to update us on your details at any point by emailing us directly at Kathryn@cathean.co.uk.

– You can unsubscribe from receiving newsletters from us by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any newsletter email. Once you do this, you will no longer receive any emails from us.

– You can request a readable copy of the personal data we hold on you at any time. To do this, please contact us at Kathryn@cathean.co.uk.

Please note, we are constantly reviewing how we process and protect data. Therefore, changes to our policy may occur at any time. We will endeavour to publicise any changes.
