Last updated: 14 September 2026

Hayley A Young respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit this website, how it may be used, and the rights you have regarding your personal data.

This website operates from the United Kingdom and is intended to comply with applicable UK data-protection legislation, including the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018.

Information I May Collect

Depending on how you use Hayley A Young, I may collect information that you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address and any information you include when contacting me, subscribing to communications, making an enquiry or working with me.

The website and services used to operate it may also collect technical information automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referring website and general usage information.

I do not intentionally collect more personal information than is reasonably necessary to operate the website and its services.

How Your Information Is Used

Personal information may be used to operate and improve Hayley A Young, respond to enquiries, communicate with subscribers, manage business or collaboration enquiries, provide requested services, understand how visitors use the website, maintain website security and comply with legal obligations.

Where required by law, an appropriate lawful basis will be relied upon for processing personal information. Depending on the circumstances, this may include your consent, performance of a contract, compliance with a legal obligation or legitimate interests.

Email & Contact Forms

If you contact me through the website or by email, the information you provide will be used to respond to your enquiry and, where appropriate, maintain records relating to our correspondence or business relationship.

Submitting an enquiry does not automatically subscribe you to marketing communications.

If email newsletters or marketing emails are offered, you can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe option included in those communications.

Cookies

Hayley A Young may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, understand website traffic and support features provided by third-party services.

Where legally required, non-essential cookies will not be placed until appropriate consent has been obtained.

More information about the cookies used on this website can be found in the separate Cookie Policy.

Analytics

Analytics services may be used to understand how visitors interact with the website. These services may process information such as pages viewed, approximate location, device or browser information and how visitors arrived at the website.

Where required, analytics technologies will be subject to the choices you make through the website’s cookie-consent system.

Affiliate Links & Third Parties

Hayley A Young may contain affiliate links and links to third-party websites, retailers, social networks and other services.

When you follow an external link, the third party may collect information according to its own privacy and cookie policies.

Hayley A Young is not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.

Service Providers

I may use third-party companies and platforms to help operate the website and business, such as website hosting, security, analytics, email, payment, ecommerce or other technology providers.

These providers may process personal information where necessary to provide their services.

I do not sell your personal information.

Data Retention

Personal information will only be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including satisfying applicable legal, accounting or reporting requirements.

Different types of information may therefore be retained for different periods.

Data Security

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to help protect personal information.

However, no website, email service or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

International Data Transfers

Some third-party services used by this website may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards should be used where required by applicable data-protection law.

Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on the circumstances, UK data-protection law may give you rights concerning your personal information, including the right to request access to your personal data, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion in certain circumstances, restrict or object to certain processing, request data portability where applicable, and withdraw consent where processing relies upon consent.

You may also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your personal information has been handled improperly.

Children’s Privacy

Hayley A Young is not designed specifically for children, and I do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through the website.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes to the website, services used or applicable legal requirements.

The latest version will be published on this page with its updated date.
