We only collect personal information where this is necessary to provide our service. We collect personal information from you, including information about your name and contact information (i.e. email address).
We collect your personal information in order to provide the Nelson Pulse newsletter and communicate with you about it.
Providing some information is optional. If you choose not to provide your name, we will still send the newsletter. If you do not provide your email address then we cannot provide the service.
We use trusted third-party services (such as an email sending platform and secure cloud storage) to help deliver the newsletter and store data securely. These providers process data on our behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.
We may collect information about how you interact with our emails and website, such as whether emails are opened or links are clicked. In some cases, links may pass through tracking systems (including our own website) before reaching the final destination. This helps us understand what content is of most interest and improve the newsletter.
From time to time, we may invite you to take part in surveys or provide feedback about the Nelson Pulse newsletter. Any information you choose to provide is used only to improve our service.
We do not sell your personal information or share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
You have the right to ask for a copy of any personal information we hold about you, and to ask for it to be corrected if you think it is wrong. If you would like to request a copy of your information, or have it corrected, please contact us.
