Overview
Privacy is a concern to most users of the internet and is a basic requirement for an enjoyable experience online. At Tidy Guides we are fundamentally aware of this and are sensitive to the privacy concerns of our subscribers and any other visitors to our website. Whether you decide to take up one of our various offers or services or are a visitor to our site we assure you that we do not collect personal information from you unless you wish to provide it to us.
Information collection and use
There are three ways in which you can intentionally provide us with your personal information via our website; by entering competitions, signing up to offers within our microsites or by choosing to subscribe to our general newsletters. These use web forms to collect personal information in accordance with the offer or competition at hand. This will usually include your name, email address and postcode however on occasion it may also be necessary to ask for further demographic information such as your address and/or telephone number or other information as required. We collect this data in order to best communicate with you and to provide a useful service to our clients.
​
By entering your details into any sign-up forms on Tidy Guides you will be joining the relevant mailing list: this is used to communicate directly with you via our websites and to provide updates concerning both informational pieces and offers relevant to what you originally signed up to. Your details are held on a secure server and are separate to the main Tidy Guides website. As such they will not be accessible to anyone other than Love Leeds staff. On occasion, we may need to pass your details over to our clients in order to fulfil your requests and deliver on promised discounts or to deliver a prize. You will always be aware of this when submitting your information and under no circumstances will you be added to any third-party email lists.
