Email Marketing
We use Mailchimp for our email marketing so, when you subscribe to our email programmes, the email address and name you submit will be held securely by them and the information also made accessible to us.

As a respected email marketing provider, MailChimp won’t share your information with any unauthorised third parties or contact you directly at any time – you can read their full privacy policy here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/
We use a double opt-in process, at which point MailChimp will also collect your IP address and a timestamp. This is to help provide our evidence of consent, should we need to provide this to the regulator.
By default, we will retain your data in MailChimp for as long as you choose to stay subscribed or such time as we consider your account to be inactive. You can update your details or opt-out of our emails at any time using the ‘Unsubscribe’ or ‘Email Preferences’ links found at the bottom of every email we send via MailChimp. If you unsubscribe, MailChimp will retain your email address for the purposes of a suppression list to ensure that no further marketing messages can be sent unless you actively choose to opt-in again.
