Privacy notice
This notice explains how Aldona Collective ("Aldona", "we", "us") collects and uses your personal information when you visit this website, join our mailing list or contact us. It covers this website only. A full privacy notice will be published with the Aldona app.
Who we are
Aldona Collective, based in the United Kingdom, is the controller of the personal information described in this notice. You can contact us about anything in it at support@aldonacollective.com.
What we collect
- Your email address, when you join our mailing list.
- Your messages, including your email address and anything you tell us, when you email us.
- Basic technical information, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request, which our hosting provider processes automatically to deliver and secure the website.
How we use it and why
- Mailing list: to email you about Aldona's launch, news, new features and offers. Our lawful basis is your consent, which you give by submitting the form.
- Replying to you: to answer your questions and requests. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interests in responding to the people who contact us.
- Running the website: to deliver the website, keep it secure and prevent spam. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interests in running a safe, working website.
You can withdraw your consent or stop marketing emails at any time, using the unsubscribe link in every email we send or by contacting us. We will never share your email address with other companies for their own marketing.
Cookies
This website does not set any cookies, and we do not use advertising or analytics tracking. The fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google's servers and shares your IP address with Google.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your information. We only share it with service providers who help us run the website and the mailing list, and only for that purpose:
- Netlify, which hosts the website and stores mailing list sign-ups, together with the providers Netlify uses to run its service, for example to filter spam.
- Google, which supplies the website's fonts.
- Our email service, which sends our emails. We will name it here before we send any emails.
We may also share information if the law requires it, or to protect our rights or the safety of others.
International transfers
Some of these providers process information outside the UK, including in the United States. Where they do, the transfer is protected by safeguards recognised under UK data protection law, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum or the UK Extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
How long we keep it
- Mailing list: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete your details. If you haven't opened any of our emails for two years, we will remove you from the list.
- Messages: for as long as we need to deal with your enquiry, and no longer than two years after our last contact.
- Technical information: kept by our hosting provider for a short period for security, in line with its own policies.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you have the right to:
- access the personal information we hold about you
- have it corrected or deleted
- restrict or object to how we use it, including the absolute right to stop marketing emails at any time
- receive it in a portable format
- withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting anything we did before you withdrew it
To use any of these rights, email support@aldonacollective.com. It is free, and we will respond within one month.
Age
This website and our mailing list are intended for people aged 18 and over.
Other websites
