USE OF INFORMATION

Strategy Boffins is hosted on the publishing platform WordPress, which includes a statistical analytics feature to help publishers understand how their readers use their websites. This means that anonymized information of the pages Strategy Boffins readers visit and the times of those visits are represented in these statistics. WordPress may add other features to their analytics at any time, which will be available to us as a publisher. We also use the information we collect to :

 

  • Respond to your comments and questions and provide customer service;
  • Communicate with you about new content, products, services, and features offered by StrategyBoffins and provide other news and information we think will interest you, if you are subscribed to our newsletter
  • Monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with our Services.
  • Carry out any other purpose described to you at the time the information was collected.
 

SHARING OF INFORMATION

We share personal information in the following circumstances or as otherwise described in this policy:

 

  • We may disclose personal information if we believe that disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law or legal process, including lawful requests by public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. 
  • We share personal information with your consent or at your direction.
  • We don’t share your information with any “third parties,” though it does live — securely — within the external services that deliver the email newsletter (MailChimp), or our newsletter on Substack. Read Substack’s privacy policy here
 

THIRD-PARTY EMBEDS

StrategyBoffins does not host some of the content displayed on our Services, but is embedded in our pages (an Embed). When you interact with an Embed, it can send information about your interaction to the hosting third party just as if you were visiting the third party’s site directly. For example, when you load a StrategyBoffins post page with a Twitter Embed and click on an embedded Tweet, Twitter may receive information about your activity, such as your IP address. StrategyBoffins does not control what information third parties collect through Embeds or what they do with the information. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected through Embeds. The privacy policy belonging to the third party hosting the Embed applies to any information the Embed collects, and we recommend you review that policy before interacting with the Embed.
