Privacy Policy
How Finch Roofing collects, uses and protects your personal information.
01
Introduction
Website: https://www.finchroofing.co.uk/
Finch Roofing respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected and used when you visit or interact with our website.
03
Comments
If visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the information provided in the comments form, along with the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string. This information may be used to help detect and prevent spam.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check whether you are using it.
The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at:
https://automattic.com/privacy/
Once a comment has been approved, your profile picture may be visible to the public alongside your comment if you have a Gravatar account.
04
Media
If you upload images to our website, you should avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS data). Visitors to the website may be able to download images and extract any location information contained within them.
05
Cookies
Our website may use cookies to improve functionality and provide a better user experience.
If you leave a comment on our website, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. These cookies are provided for your convenience so that you do not need to enter your details again when leaving another comment. These cookies may last for up to one year.
If you visit our website's login page, a temporary cookie may be set to determine whether your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
If you log in to an account on the website, cookies may be used to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies may last for two days, while screen preference cookies may last for up to one year. If you select "Remember Me", your login may remain active for up to two weeks.
If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie may be saved in your browser. This cookie contains no personal data and simply identifies the post ID of the article you have edited. It expires after one day.
06
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Pages and articles on our website may include embedded content such as videos, images or articles.
Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited the other website directly. These websites may collect information about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking technologies and monitor your interaction with the embedded content.
If you are logged into an account with the third-party website, your interaction with embedded content may also be associated with your account with that provider.
07
Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the password reset email.
Visitor comments may also be checked through an automated spam detection service.
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
08
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata may be retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically rather than holding them in a moderation queue.
If users register for an account on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can view, edit or delete their personal information at any time, except for their username. Website administrators may also be able to view and edit this information.
09

-
Request the deletion of your personal information.
-
Object to or restrict certain types of processing.
-
Withdraw consent where processing is based on your consent.
If you have an account on this website or have left comments, you can request an exported file containing the personal data we hold about you, including any information you have provided to us.
You can also request that we erase personal data we hold about you. This does not include information that we are required to retain for administrative, legal or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent
