PRIVACY POLICY
Welcome to Leah Totman's Portfolio!
This privacy policy outlines the rules and regulations for the use of Leah Totman's Website, located at www.leahtotman.com.
This website, www.leahtotman.com is owned by Leah Totman and serviced by the web builder Zyro, which is a data controller of your personal data.
I have adopted this Privacy Policy, which determines how I am processing the information collected by www.leahtotman.com, and also provides the reasons why I must collect certain personal data about you. Please read this Privacy Policy before using this website. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy and my Terms, then you should immediately discontinue use of the Service without providing any of your personal information.
I take care of your personal data and undertake to guarantee its confidentiality and security.
Personal Information I Collect
When you visit www.leahtotman.com, I automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the installed cookies on your device. Additionally, as you browse the site, it collects information about the individual web pages or products you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the site, and how you interact with the site. I refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.” Moreover, I might collect the personal data you provide to us (including but not limited to Name, Surname, Address, etc.) if you chose to use the Contact feature.
Retention of Personal Data
Leah Totman will only retain your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
In general, I will retain personal data related to inquiries or projects until the inquiry or project is resolved or completed. After that, I will delete the personal data unless I am required to retain it for legal, accounting, or reporting purposes. In such cases, I will retain the personal data for the minimum amount of time required by law.
I will review our retention periods for personal data on a regular basis and will delete personal data when it is no longer necessary to retain it.
Why do I process your data?
My top priority is data security, and, as such, I may process only minimal user data, only as much as it is absolutely necessary to maintain the website. Information collected automatically is used only to identify potential cases of abuse and establish statistical information regarding website usage. This statistical information is not otherwise aggregated in such a way that it would identify any particular user of the system.
You can visit the website without telling us who you are or revealing any information, by which someone could identify you as a specific, identifiable individual. If, however, you wish to use some of the website’s features, or you wish to receive additional communications or provide other details by filling out a form, you may provide personal data to me, such as your email, first name, last name, city of residence, organization, telephone number. You can choose not to provide me with your personal data, but then you may not be able to take advantage of some of the website’s features. For example, you won’t be able to contact Leah Totman directly from the website. Users who are uncertain about what information is mandatory are welcome to contact Leah via lbtotman@gmail.com.
