Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters

Who we are

This website, wordsbygigi.com (the “website”), is owned and operated by Words by Gigi, a freelance copywriting and content marketing business based in London, UK.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how your information is handled, you can contact us at wordsbygigi@gmail.com.

What information we collect

We keep things simple. The only personal information we collect through this website is what you choose to give us when you fill in the contact form on the “Get in Touch” page. This may include:

• First name and last name

• Email address

• Company name

• Website URL

• Subject and message content

We do not require you to create an account, log in, or leave comments anywhere on this site, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information beyond what you submit through the contact form.

How we use your information

We use the details you submit through the contact form solely to:

• Respond to your enquiry

• Discuss potential projects or collaborations with you

• Keep a record of our correspondence for our own business purposes

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling, and we do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.

How we store and protect your information

Messages submitted through the contact form are sent directly to our business email address (wordsbygigi@gmail.com) and may be stored there as part of our normal email records. We take reasonable steps to keep this information secure, but please note that no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

How long we keep your information

We retain contact form submissions and any related correspondence for as long as is reasonably necessary to respond to your enquiry and for our own record-keeping, unless you ask us to delete it sooner (see “Your rights” below).

Who we share your information with

We do not share, sell, or disclose your personal information to third parties, except where we are required to do so by law.

This website is hosted and may use standard hosting and security infrastructure provided by our website host. These providers may process technical data (such as server logs) as part of running the website, but they do not have access to the content of your contact form submissions beyond what is necessary to deliver the website.

Cookies

This website does not use comment forms, login areas, or membership accounts, so we do not set the cookies typically associated with those features (such as comment cookies or login cookies).

If this changes in future, for example, if we add analytics or marketing tools, we will update this Privacy Policy and, where required, ask for your consent via a cookie banner.

Embedded content from other websites

Pages on this site may include content embedded from other websites, such as LinkedIn links or embedded videos. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if you had visited that other website directly. These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content. We do not control this and recommend checking the privacy policy of any third-party site you interact with.

Links to other websites

Our website may contain links to other websites, including our LinkedIn profile and client websites featured in our portfolio. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those websites. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any external website you visit.

Your rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have rights in relation to your personal information, including the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you

• Ask us to correct any inaccurate information

• Ask us to delete your personal information

• Withdraw your consent to us holding or using your information

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at wordsbygigi@gmail.com. We will respond to your request as soon as reasonably possible.

Children’s privacy

This website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the tools or services we use. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “last updated” date.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your information, please get in touch:
