We are committed to protecting your personal data. Read our privacy policy for all matters concerning the use of data, cookies and privacy protection. The policy is in line with the standards as set in the European data protection law (GDPR) and is effective from 1 July 2020. If you have any questions about our privacy policy, contact us at hello@currantmag.com.
Data can be divided in personally identifiable data and anonymous data.
Personally identifiable data is personal and can be identified back to a specific person (i.e. you, when you sign up for a newsletter and disclose your name and email address). We may use personally identifiable data for newsletters, competition entries and event signups. The tool we use for this is MailChimp. Under no circumstances do we disclose personally identifiable data to third parties, unless we have your permission to do so.
Anonymous data is statistical and is generally used to track grouped actions on a site (i.e. when we want to track the performance of an editorial and collect data about the overall view and read count of the editorial). We may use anonymous data to monitor the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing campaigns and to help us improve reader engagement. The tool we use for this is Google Analytics. We only disclose anonymous data to third parties to showcase our overall site performance to advertisers and prospective partners or if we are required to disclose any data to the law by court order.
