Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Nottingham Nursery School collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website at nottinghamnurseryschool.co.uk. We are committed to respecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about the data we handle through standard web technologies.

Information We Collect

When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain information through standard web processes. This includes:

  • IP address and approximate geographic location
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited and time spent on each page
  • Referral source (e.g., search engine or other website)

We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or any other personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily provide it through a contact form — and even then, such data is used only for the specific purpose stated and is not stored in any database.

How We Use Information

The information we collect is used solely for the following purposes:

  • To understand how visitors interact with our website
  • To improve website performance and user experience
  • To ensure the website functions correctly and securely
  • To generate anonymous statistical reports about website traffic

We do not use this information to identify individuals, sell data, or send unsolicited communications.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to enhance functionality and analyse usage. These include:

  • Essential cookies: Necessary for the website to operate, such as maintaining session security
  • Analytics cookies: Used by third-party services (e.g., Google Analytics) to measure traffic and behaviour patterns

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some website features, but will not prevent you from accessing general content.

Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party services to support our website operations:

  • Google Analytics: To collect anonymous traffic data and improve our site’s performance. Google’s Privacy Policy governs its use of this data.
  • Cloudflare: To enhance website security and speed.
  • Advertising networks: We do not currently use targeted advertising, but if this changes in the future, we will update this policy accordingly.

These services may set their own cookies and collect data under their own privacy policies. We do not control their practices and encourage you to review their policies.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the information we collect, including using secure servers and encrypted connections (HTTPS). However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have the following rights:

  • The right to be informed about how your data is used
  • The right to access any personal data you have provided
  • The right to request deletion of your data (if applicable)

Children's Privacy

Our website is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected such data, we will take immediate steps to delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The most recent version will always be posted on this page with the updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
