This page explains, in plain English, what happens to your information when you use Mag Stories. We’ve tried to keep it short and readable, because a privacy policy nobody understands isn’t much use to anyone. By using the website, you’re agreeing to what’s written here.
What We Collect
In general, there are only two kinds of information involved.
The first is what you choose to give us. If you email us or fill in a form, we’ll see your name, your email address, and whatever you write in your message. We use this to reply to you, and for nothing else.
The second is technical information that arrives automatically when someone visits a website. This usually covers:
- Your IP address and rough location, such as your country or region.
- The type of browser and device you’re using.
- Which pages you looked at and roughly how long you stayed.
- The page or link that brought you to us.
Why We Need It
The technical details help us in practical ways. They show whether a page is broken, whether the site loads slowly on certain phones, and which stories people actually read. They also help us spot spam and keep the website safe.
Cookies
Like most websites, we use a few cookies. These are small files saved on your device that help the site work properly and remember simple things, such as your settings. If you’d rather not have them, you can block or delete cookies in your browser at any time.
Who Sees Your Information
We don’t sell your details, rent them out, or hand them to anyone for marketing. Only the small team running the site can see messages sent to us. The only time we’d share anything is if the law forces us to, or if we had to protect the website or other people from harm.
Keeping It Safe
We take sensible steps to look after the information we hold, and we keep our software up to date. Having said that, no website can promise perfect security. Please avoid sending anything sensitive by email or through the website.
Children
Mag Stories is written with adults in mind, and we don’t knowingly collect information from anyone under 13. If you think a child has sent us their details, let us know and we’ll delete them straight away.
Your Rights
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to ask what information we hold about you, to have mistakes corrected, and to have your details deleted. You can also object to the way we use your information. If you’d like to do any of these, just get in touch through our Contact Us page. If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled things, you can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
If This Policy Changes
We might update this page now and then. When we do, the new version will appear here. Carrying on using the website after a change means you’re happy with the updated policy.
