Who we are
At Petteril House we respect your privacy. We aim to comply with the latest data protection regulations. This policy explains how we collect and handle data relating to website visitors. The last update to this policy occurred on 14th November 2020.
What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form. We also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
We may also check with the Gravator Service to see if you are using it. This is done by providing them with an anonymized string created from your email address. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

When you contact us by email or via the contact form on the website, we will collect your name, email address and contact number so that we can process your inquiry.
Online Booking
When you make an online booking with us, we will collect your name, email address and contact number so that we can process your booking and any payments related to it. We do not store any credit card or payment information.

Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Marketing
We will not contact you for marketing purposes by email, phone or text message unless you have given your prior consent. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by contacting us.
How long we retain your data
A comment and its metadata is retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
