Privacy Policy

LandscapeTools is an affiliate content website for readers in the United Kingdom, the European Union, the European Economic Area, and other English-speaking markets. For UK GDPR and EU GDPR purposes, LandscapeTools is the controller of personal data collected through this website.

Information we collect

We may collect limited technical data such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, referral URLs, approximate location, cookie identifiers, and analytics events. If you contact us, we may collect your email address, message content, and any information you choose to include.

How we use information

We use information to operate the website, secure pages, measure readership, understand which guides are useful, respond to messages, correct errors, manage affiliate disclosures, and improve content quality.

Lawful bases

We process technical and analytics data where we have a legitimate interest in running and improving the website, where consent is required for cookies or similar technologies, where processing is needed to respond to your request, or where we must meet a legal obligation.

Cookies and similar technologies

The site may use cookies, local storage, analytics tags, affiliate tracking links, and similar technologies. These tools can help remember preferences, measure traffic, attribute referrals to merchants, and protect the site from abuse. Where required, non-essential cookies should only be used with consent.

Affiliate tracking and third-party websites

Some links may send readers to third-party merchants or networks. Those third parties may process personal data under their own privacy notices. We do not control their websites, cookies, checkout flows, returns, pricing, or account systems.

Sharing and service providers

We may share limited information with hosting providers, analytics providers, security tools, email providers, affiliate networks, merchants, professional advisers, or authorities where required by law. We do not sell personal information from this website.

International transfers

Some service providers may process data outside the UK, EU, or EEA. Where required, transfers should use appropriate safeguards such as adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or comparable protections.

Retention

We keep contact messages only as long as needed to respond and keep reasonable records. Analytics and server logs are kept for limited operational periods unless a longer period is needed for security, legal, or dispute reasons.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, object to, or port personal data. You may also withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. Contact contact@landscapetools.co.uk to make a request.

Complaints

If you are in the UK, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office. If you are in the EU or EEA, you may contact your local data protection authority. We would appreciate the chance to resolve a concern first.

Children, security, and updates

This website is not directed at children. We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information, but no website is completely secure. We may update this policy when the website, law, or service providers change.
