Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 23/05/2024

​

Your Manifesto ("we," "our," "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information about you when you use our Website, in compliance with UK data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

​

1. Information We Collect

At Your Manifesto, we value your privacy and aim to minimize the collection of personal data. Here's an overview of what we collect:

  • Aggregate Information: When you use our services, we collect general data such as your age, location, gender, and political affiliation. We handle sensitive data, such as political affiliation, with the highest level of care and security. Aggregate data helps us understand trends and preferences without identifying individual users.

  • Usage Information: Automatically collected data includes your IP address, browser type, access times, and pages visited. This helps us monitor and improve our services, ensuring a better user experience. We treat this data as personal data and it is securely handled by our data processor, Wix.com LTD.

  • Cookies: Our Website uses cookies to enhance your experience and analyze website traffic. Cookies may collect your IP address and details about your interaction with the site. We do not combine this data with your responses to our manifesto builder. Cookies help us remember your preferences and provide a customized experience.

  • Google AdSense: We use Google AdSense to display ads. These ads are non-personalized, and we ensure that Google AdSense cookies are used minimally. Non-personalized ads do not track your behavior and are based on general context like your location and the content you are viewing.

  • Information from Other Sources: We may receive personal information about you from third-party sources, such as security providers, fraud detection and prevention providers, social media platforms, and advertising and marketing partners.

We strive to collect only aggregate data through our manifesto builder tools and ensure that this data does not include personally identifiable information. By collecting aggregate data, we can analyze trends and improve our services without compromising your privacy.

2. Use of Information

We use the information collected for various purposes, including:

  • Provide and Improve Services: Using your data helps us operate and enhance our Website, personalize your experience, and respond to your inquiries promptly and effectively.

  • Research and Analysis: Aggregate data is used for research and analysis to understand trends and preferences among different demographic groups. This data may be sold, given away, or used for our marketing purposes. You have the right to opt out of this by not ticking the box under the terms of use box. Research and analysis allow us to improve our services and understand our audience better.

  • Contacting You: To contact you with general or personalized service-related notices and promotional messages.

  • Customer Assistance and Support: To provide ongoing customer assistance and technical support.

  • Compliance and Security: To enhance our data security and fraud prevention capabilities and comply with applicable laws and regulations.

3. Sharing of Information

Your Manifesto is committed to protecting your information and only shares it under specific circumstances:

  • Aggregate Data: We may share aggregate data with third parties for research, advertising, and other purposes. This data will not include any personally identifiable information, ensuring your privacy is maintained.

  • Service Providers: We may share your information with service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as data processing and hosting. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the purposes we specify.

  • Law Enforcement and Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to a legal request, such as a subpoena, legal proceedings, search warrant, or court order.

  • Protecting Rights and Safety: We may share your information if we believe in good faith that this will help protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Your Manifesto, any of our users, or any member of the general public.

  • Change in Corporate Control: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity.

4. Your Rights

You have several rights regarding your personal data under the UK GDPR:

  • Access and Correction: You have the right to know what personal data we hold about you and request corrections if necessary.

  • Data Portability: You can request a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

  • Deletion: You can request the deletion of your personal information. Note that we may retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

  • Objection and Restriction: You have the right to object to or request the restriction of the processing of your personal data under certain circumstances.

  • Withdraw Consent: Where we rely on your consent to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

To exercise your privacy rights and choices, including where a third-party service provider is acting on Your Manifesto's behalf, contact us at enquiries@yourmanifesto.co.uk. We will respond to your request in accordance with applicable laws and aim to resolve any issues promptly.

There may be situations where we cannot grant your request, such as if it jeopardizes the privacy of others, is frivolous or vexatious, or is required for security and anti-fraud purposes.

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information.

Your Manifesto uses administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal data. We regularly review and update these measures to address new security threats.
