Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important, and there are a few fundamental principles that we follow:

  • We don’t ask you for personal information unless we need it.

  • We don’t share your personal information with anyone, and would only do so to comply with any (unforeseen) legal obligations.

  • We store the information you submit via our Contact Form only to respond to any queries you might have, and as a record of our interactions. We do not, and will never, sell your information on to anyone.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, we collect non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Our purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how visitors to Polebrook Cottage use the website.

This website also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Any IP-related information remains in the administrator area of the website, is accessed by the owner only, and is not copied or used elsewhere.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to this website choose to interact with the site in ways that require that we gather personally-identifying information. If you wish to use the Contact form, we collect your email. In each case, we collect such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of your interaction.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

We will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. We only disclose potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information in response to a subpoena, court order, or other governmental request, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect our property or rights or the public at large. We take all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns.
