Privacy Policy

This document explains what information may be collected, why it is used, how long it may be kept and the choices available to readers.

Last updated: 3 July 2026

1. Scope and purpose

This Privacy Policy explains how Daily Nourish Guide handles information when you visit our website, subscribe to an editorial email, contact our team or otherwise interact with our online pages. Daily Nourish Guide is an informational publishing concept based at 42 Willow Lane, Leeds, LS6 3HT, United Kingdom, United Kingdom. For questions about privacy, email [email protected].

The policy applies to information processed through dailynourishguide.co.uk and the physical PHP pages identified in the site navigation. It does not automatically apply to an independent website that may be referenced in an article. We encourage readers to review the privacy information provided by any independent service before sharing information there.

2. Information we may collect

We collect only information that is relevant to operating the journal and responding to readers. Information you provide directly may include your name, email address, the subject of an enquiry, the message you send, newsletter preferences and any details you choose to include. Please avoid sending information that is not needed for the purpose of your message.

Technical information may be generated when a browser requests a page. This can include internet protocol address, browser type, device category, operating system, referring page, requested page, approximate country or region, date, time and basic error records. Where optional measurement is enabled, aggregated interaction information may include page views, general navigation paths and broad engagement with site sections.

3. How information is used

We may use information to answer enquiries, record communication preferences, deliver requested editorial emails, maintain site security, identify technical faults, understand general readership patterns and improve the clarity or structure of our content. We may also use limited records to demonstrate that a preference was received or to protect the website from misuse.

We do not use contact form messages to create unrelated advertising profiles. We do not sell personal information. Newsletter addresses are used for the requested editorial communication and essential administration connected with that communication, such as confirmation, preference changes and unsubscribe requests.

4. Reasons for processing

Where United Kingdom privacy rules require a reason for processing, we rely on the reason that fits the activity. A requested email or direct response may be processed because you asked us to take that step. Newsletter delivery may rely on your clear choice to subscribe. Security logging and basic site administration may rely on our legitimate interest in keeping the journal reliable, preventing misuse and understanding whether pages function as intended.

When we rely on legitimate interests, we consider the expected benefit, the type of information involved and the likely impact on readers. Optional measurement is not enabled where a required preference has not been recorded. You can change a cookie choice through the available controls or by clearing the site storage in your browser.

5. Service providers and sharing

Information may be handled by carefully selected providers that support website hosting, email delivery, security, data storage or aggregated site measurement. Such providers act under contractual duties and may use the information only to provide the relevant service. Access is limited to what is reasonably needed for the task.

We may disclose information where required by a valid legal obligation, to protect the security of the website, to investigate misuse or as part of a genuine organisational change. In an organisational change, appropriate confidentiality steps would be used and the information would remain subject to applicable privacy requirements.

6. International processing

Some digital service providers operate infrastructure in more than one country. If information is processed outside the United Kingdom, we seek appropriate safeguards, such as a recognised adequacy arrangement or approved contractual terms. The safeguard used depends on the provider, destination and nature of the service.

You may contact us for general information about the safeguards relevant to a specific service category. We may need to protect confidential commercial or security details, but we will aim to provide a useful explanation of the approach.

7. Retention and deletion

We keep information only for as long as it is reasonably needed. Contact enquiries are generally retained for up to twenty-four months after the last meaningful communication, unless a longer period is needed to resolve an ongoing issue or meet a legal obligation. Newsletter records are retained while a subscription remains active and for a limited period afterwards to honour an unsubscribe choice.

Technical security records are usually kept for a shorter period, commonly between thirty days and twelve months, depending on their purpose. Aggregated statistics that no longer identify an individual may be retained for editorial comparison over a longer period.

8. Your privacy rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may ask for access to personal information, correction of inaccurate details, deletion, restriction, an objection to certain processing or a portable copy of information you supplied. Where processing relies on your choice, you may withdraw that choice for future activity. Withdrawal does not change the lawfulness of processing already completed.

To make a request, email [email protected] with enough detail for us to identify the relevant record. We may ask for proportionate information to confirm identity and protect other people’s information. We aim to respond within the period required by applicable rules and will explain if a lawful exception applies.

9. Security and reader responsibility

We use reasonable organisational and technical measures designed to protect information. These include access controls, secure transfer where supported, software maintenance, limited administrative access and review of unusual activity. No internet service can remove every risk, so readers should also use current browsers, protect access to their email accounts and avoid sending unnecessary private details through an open form.

If we become aware of an information incident, we will assess the likely impact, take proportionate steps to contain it and make any notice required by applicable rules.

10. Younger visitors

The journal is written for adults and is not designed to collect information from children. A parent or guardian who believes a child has supplied personal information may contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, remove the record.

11. Policy updates and complaints

We may update this policy when our services, providers or obligations change. The current version will remain available on this page, and the modification date will be updated. Material changes may also be highlighted through a site notice where appropriate.

Please contact us first if you have a privacy concern so that we can try to resolve it. You may also raise a concern with the United Kingdom supervisory authority responsible for data protection. This policy was last updated on 3 July 2026.
