What personal data we collect and why we collect it
We will always treat your personal data with the utmost respect and will never sell it to third parties. We will only ever use your data to fulfill and improve the services we offer you.
Our aim is to be responsible, relevant and secure when using your data. Whenever you provide personal information we will treat that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We will process the personal information you have supplied to us to conduct and manage our business to enable us to give you the most appropriate information, service and products and provide the best and most secure experience. These are what we consider to be our ‘Legitimate Interests’. We endeavor at all times to keep your data accurate and secure, and to honor your data preferences.
When you participate in, access, purchase or sign up to any of our services, activities or online content, such as magazine subscriptions, newsletters, competitions or events, we receive personal information about you. This can consist of information such as your name, email address, postal address, telephone or mobile number.
While you visit our site, the WooCommerce platform will track:
- Products you’ve viewed: we’ll use this to, for example, show you products you’ve recently viewed
- Location, IP address and browser type: we’ll use this for purposes like estimating taxes and shipping
- Shipping address: we’ll ask you to enter this so we can, for instance, estimate shipping before you place an order, and send you the order!
We’ll also use cookies to keep track of cart contents while you’re browsing our site.
Magazine subscription
We will use the details you have shared to manage your subscription to our magazine, which includes sending the magazine, managing access to any digital version, taking secure payments, to fulfill any gift that was offered at the time of purchase, to handle any customer query you may have and to contact you via telephone, email, SMS and postal service with information relating to your magazine subscription. e.g. to thank for for subscribing, to notify you of the expiry date of your subscription, that a delivery to you may be delayed or to remind you of a password or to notify you of updates to our Privacy Policy, Cookies Policies or Terms of Use.
Direct marketing
We may use the details you share with us to send you offers and promotions by email, post, telephone or SMS wherever we have legitimate interest grounds to do so and where you have not objected. We will provide a way for you to opt-out of receiving marketing promotions every time we contact you. You can also email our publisher at tina[dot]casagrand[at]gmail[dot]com to request your details are suppressed from all promotional campaigns. We won’t use your personal data for marketing purposes at all if you’ve told us not to.
Our email promotions and The Dabbler newsletter are distributed through MailChimp. The MailChimp privacy policy is here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/
Legitimate interest
We may process your personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest which may include promoting similar products or services via direct marketing activity, to manage suppression and unsubscribe requests received from you, to identify and prevent fraudulent behavior, maintaining the security of our system, data analytics, enhancing, modifying or improving our services, identifying usage trends and determining the effectiveness of our campaigns.
Whenever we process data for these purposes we will ensure that we always keep your personal data rights in high regard and take account of these rights.

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it.

Content from other websites
We operate a website that may contain hyperlinks to websites owned and operated by third parties.
