This site collects as little as it can get away with. Reading an article should not feel like signing up to anything.
What is collected
The web host keeps standard server logs: IP address, browser and operating system, the pages requested and the time of the request. These logs exist to keep the site online, to spot breakages and to deal with abuse. They are not used to build a profile of you.
If you email me, I keep your address and your message for as long as it takes to reply and for a reasonable period afterwards, so that a conversation is not lost. If you ask me to delete it, I will.
Cookies and analytics
The site sets no cookies of its own and uses no analytics package. Full details are in the cookie policy.
Who else sees it
The site is hosted by a hosting provider, which processes server logs on my behalf. Beyond that, no one. Your data is not sold, rented or shared for marketing, and there is no mailing list to unsubscribe from.
Your rights
Under the UK GDPR you can ask what personal data is held about you, ask for a copy, and ask for it to be corrected or deleted. In practice this will usually be an email and nothing more. Write to hello@pawandpost.com and I will deal with it within a month.
How long it is kept
Server logs are kept for up to ninety days and then deleted automatically. Email is kept for as long as the conversation needs it, and deleted on request. Backups are kept for a short period and are not searched unless something has gone wrong.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will appear on this page. Last updated: November 2026.
