Welcome to wbhawkins.com (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website.

We may collect the following types of information:

  • Personal Information: This may include your name and email address if you choose to contact us or subscribe to our newsletter.

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and maintain our website
  • Improve and personalise your experience on our site
  • Respond to your inquiries and comments
  • Send periodic emails (if you’ve subscribed to our newsletter)
  • Analyse usage of our website

4. Data Protection

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised or unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction, or damage.

5. Third-Party Services

We use third-party services to collect, monitor, and analyse data about how visitors use our website. Specifically:

  • Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit our site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information.
  • Microsoft Clarity: We use Microsoft Clarity to obtain insights into how visitors use our website. Clarity records information such as mouse movements, page scrolling, and clicks. It also provides heatmaps and session replay features. Clarity does not collect any personally identifiable information, and we do not use it to track or collect personal data of individuals.

For both services, we have configured them to anonymize IP addresses and we do not use them to collect or track personal data of individuals. However, these third-party services have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information:

You can opt out of Google Analytics by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/. For Microsoft Clarity, you can opt out by enabling “Do Not Track” in your browser settings.

  • The right to access, update, or delete your personal information
  • The right to rectification
  • The right to object
