Why and on what basis
We use server logs on the basis of our legitimate interest in keeping the site secure. We use emails to reply to you, on the basis of our legitimate interest in answering reader correspondence, and occasionally to improve articles. We never sell, rent or share your data for marketing.

Correspondence is kept for up to 24 months and then deleted, unless you ask us to delete it sooner. Server logs are kept for up to 30 days.
Who processes it
We use a hosting provider and an email provider, both bound by data processing agreements. Where data is transferred outside the UK, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as UK adequacy regulations or the International Data Transfer Agreement.
