PRIVACY POLICY

1. Who We Are

Our website address is https://www.noaddedsugar.co.uk.

The site is owned and operated by No Added Sugar Creative, a trading name of No Added Sugar Marketing Limited.

2. Visiting Our Website

We use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behavior patterns. This data is only processed in a way that does not identify anyone. We do this to find out metrics such as the best-performing areas of our website and to discover ways to improve the user experience. We do not make any attempt to discover the identities of those visiting our website.

We may also have access to generalised geolocation data through your IP address on both mobile devices and computers. We collect and process the IP addresses of devices accessing our online services for security and analytics purposes.

3. Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with spam detection.

4. Media

If you upload images to the website (through forms), you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included, as other visitors could potentially download and extract this data.

5. Cookies

Our site uses cookies, small text files placed on your device, to help provide a better user experience. In general, cookies are used to retain user preferences and provide anonymised tracking data to third-party applications like Google Analytics.

As a rule, cookies will make your browsing experience better. However, you may prefer to disable cookies on our site. The most effective way to do this is to disable cookies directly in your internet browser. We suggest consulting the Help section of your browser for step-by-step guidance.

6. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Insights, blogs, and other resources on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.

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

7. Submitting Information Via Our Online Forms

Any data provided to us through our online contact forms will remain strictly private between you and us. Your personal information will never be sold, rented, or distributed to any third party.

8. How Long We Retain Your Data
  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

  • Marketing Communications: For users who register for our newsletter or marketing communications, we store the personal information provided. You can update or delete your personal information at any time, and website administrators can also view and edit that information.

9. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

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

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are legally or contractually obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

10. Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated, third-party spam detection service.
