Privacy & Cookies

Wild Kestrel is the trading name of Phil Loose, a sole trader based in England. This page explains how personal information is handled when you use this website or get in touch. Questions? Email hello@wildkestrel.co.uk.

What this website collects

Very little, deliberately. This website currently has no enquiry forms, no user accounts, no newsletter signup, and no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. You can read every page without telling us who you are.

Email enquiries

If you email us, we naturally receive your name, email address and whatever you choose to tell us. We use that to reply to you and, where it makes sense, to establish and manage a business relationship with you.

Under UK data protection law, the lawful bases for this are principally legitimate interests — responding to genuine business enquiries and managing business relationships — and, where we agree to do work together, contractual necessity, because we need your details to provide the service you’ve asked for.

How long we keep things

We keep emails and contact details for as long as they’re useful for the relationship or the work, and for a reasonable period afterwards in case you come back or questions arise. We don’t keep personal information longer than we need to.

Who else sees your information

We don’t sell personal information to anyone. Trusted service providers — for example email and website hosting — may process personal information where that’s reasonably necessary to run things, subject to appropriate safeguards.

Cookies and website technology

This website does not currently use any non-essential analytics, advertising or tracking cookies, and it doesn’t store information on your device for those purposes.

Like almost every website, the hosting and security infrastructure that keeps this site online processes normal technical information — such as your IP address, browser information and request logs — for security, reliability and the basic operation of the website.

Because the site’s own implementation sets no non-essential cookies, no cookie-consent banner is currently required. This notice, and the consent arrangements, will be reviewed before any non-essential analytics, advertising, embedded media or similar technology is introduced in future.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have rights over your personal information, including the right to see it, correct it, have it deleted, and object to or restrict how it’s used. To exercise any of these, email hello@wildkestrel.co.uk.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We’d welcome the chance to sort things out first, but it’s entirely your call.
