Here’s what you need to know about Rooftop Post’s commitment to privacy…
THE ROOFTOP POST PRIVACY COMMITMENT:
Your privacy is really important to us. This notice is here to let you know what information we collect about you, how we store it and how you can manage it. We have updated our practices to comply with GDPR.
If you have any questions, you can always drop us a line at:
BELOW ARE THE TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT:
OPT-IN MAILING LIST:
- If you decide to join our mailing list, we usually collect your first name, surname and email address. You will not be added to one of our mailing lists without your explicit permission.
- We use a company called MailChimp to store our mailing lists securely, and to write and send our newsletters to you. MailChimp are committed to GDPR compliance. You can delete yourself and your details from our mailing list at any time. If have any problems doing this, let us know and we will do it for you.
COOKIES:
To find out how this website uses cookies in detail, we encourage you to visit our dedicated Cookie Policy page.
However, if you want a more general overview instead, you can find that below:
- Cookies are little data files which your computer stores when you visit websites. We use cookies on our site so that it can perform a number of tasks such as connecting to social networks and analysing our traffic. Facebook and Google Analytics cookies are examples of this.
- When you first use our website, you will be asked to actively give permission for cookie use.
- We participate in Google Adsense, which means that third party vendors, including Google and its partners, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to the Rooftop Post website and/or other sites.

USE AND STORAGE OF OTHER INFORMATION:
We try not to collect personally identifiable information about you wherever possible but if you email us and tell us your name and email address, we will not share that, or any other information you give us, with outside parties unless you specifically request us to do so.
We keep certain information about people who email, telephone or write to us in a database. This can include your name, telephone number and/or email address. We have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure this information, as well as any information we collect online. We constantly attempt to stop any unauthorised access and to maintain data accuracy.
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR DATA:
If we have any personal information about you that you have given us, we keep it for the time we are in contact with you and three months beyond that. This is to ensure that any ongoing communication/conversation we have with you is fully concluded. After that period, we will destroy your data.
DATA BREACH PROCEDURES WE HAVE IN PLACE
If there’s a data breach and we have your email, we will let you know straight away. However, we don’t normally collect emails (unless you contact us). Therefore, if we experience a data breach and we don’t have your email, we’ll put a notice up on our site, our Facebook page and a post on Twitter to let our users know. We will try to make these notices as prominent as possible.
YOUR RIGHTS OVER YOUR DATA:
If you want to know what information we have about you, you have the right to ask us to supply it. We are also happy to delete it – and you have the right to ask us to do that too. Please be aware though, that we might not actually have any data about you, as we regularly destroy any personal information we gather. To find out, just email us and we will get back to you within a few days:
Or write to us at:
IF YOU HAVE USED OUR ONLINE SHOP IN THE PAST:
- Our online shop as been closed since December 2017.
- If you have purchased letters from us in the past, rest assured that any data we had about you will have been deleted after 25th May 2018, in order to comply with GDPR.
OUR COMMITMENT TO CHILDREN’S PRIVACY:
- Protecting the privacy of the young is something we take very seriously, and we do not answer any emails or other messages which we think may be from someone under 18.
