Privacy Policy

Who We Are

This Privacy Policy applies to martynwhitedigital.com (the “Site”), operated by Martyn White Digital, a social media, SEO and digital marketing consultancy based in London, UK. If you have any questions about this policy or how your data is handled, you can reach us at contact@martynwhite.co.

Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

• Information you give us directly — when you fill in our contact form or email us, we collect your name, email address, and anything else you choose to share about your brand or project.
• Information collected automatically — like most websites, we use analytics (via Jetpack Stats) to understand how visitors use the Site. This includes information such as pages viewed, referring sites, approximate location (derived from IP address), browser and device type. We do not use this data to identify you personally.
• Cookies — the Site uses essential cookies required for it to function, and analytics cookies to help us understand visitor behaviour. You can control cookies through your browser settings at any time.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to enquiries submitted through our contact form or by email
• Understand how the Site is used, so we can improve its content and performance
• Meet our legal and regulatory obligations

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for automated decision-making or profiling.

Third-Party Services

The Site is built and hosted on WordPress.com, which provides underlying infrastructure, security and analytics (via Jetpack) as part of its hosting service. Where you contact us via social media (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok or Pinterest), that platform’s own privacy policy also applies to your interaction there.

Data Retention

We retain enquiry information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to you and, where a working relationship follows, for the duration of that relationship and any period required afterwards for legal, accounting or reporting purposes. Aggregated analytics data may be retained for longer, as it does not identify you personally.

Your Rights

If you are based in the UK or EU, data protection law gives you a number of rights over your personal information, including the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you, and request a copy of it
• Ask us to correct inaccurate information
• Ask us to delete your information, where we are not required to keep it for a legal or legitimate business reason
• Object to, or ask us to restrict, how we use your information

To exercise any of these rights, email us at contact@martynwhite.co. If you are unhappy with how we’ve handled your information, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for business audiences and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes To This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for legal and regulatory reasons. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
