Privacy Policy

 

Introduction

This policy outlines how Storied Management will use personal information collected when you visit or use the Storied Management website. We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy.

What is Collected

The Storied Management website does not store or capture any personal information when someone visits it and is not registered. However, the system will log your IP address along with other information provided by your browser, such as the name and version of the browser you are using, your operating system, and any website address that referred you to the Storied Management website. This information will only be used for producing anonymous website statistics and will help us with the delivery of services on the website.

  • However, the system will record personal information if you:

  • Provide information by filling in a form on our site or which we supply via a link

  • Subscribe, register, or apply for services that require personal information to be given

  • Report a fault and provide your contact details for us to respond

  • Complete surveys that we use for research purposes

Use of Google Forms and Other Tools

We sometimes use Google Forms to collect necessary information for business purposes. Any personal information provided through Google Forms will be handled in accordance with this privacy policy. We ensure that all third-party tools used for collecting personal information comply with relevant data protection regulations and maintain a high standard of data security.

Cookies

When you visit the Storied Management website pages, a small text file called a 'cookie' is downloaded onto your computer. This is called a session cookie and will only remain on your computer until you close your browser. This cookie is not used to identify you personally in any way. We will use this type of cookie to collect aggregated website statistics that allow us to understand how visitors use the site. All the information collected will be anonymous and only used to help us improve the website and report to funders on usage.

A persistent cookie will be downloaded when you first visit the site. These remain in your browser's cookie store between sessions. This type of cookie will allow us to identify repeat visitors to the site. Persistent cookies are also used to allow registered users to use the site without logging in on every visit.

You may opt to view the site without cookies by adjusting your browser's settings. If you do disable cookies, some functions of the site may no longer work correctly. For more information on cookies, see the All About Cookies website.

What We Will Do with Your Information

Any information collected by Storied Management from this website will only be used for monitoring purposes unless you have given us consent for your information to be used, such as providing us with your email address so we can contact you if you have registered as a regular site user or if you have registered so that we can get back to you. We may, from time to time, send you relevant information about Storied Management and its work, although there will be an option for you to opt out of this at the registration stage.

We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely and complies with the requirements of the relevant Irish legislation, namely the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2018, the Irish Data Protection Act (1988), and the Irish Data Protection (Amendment) Act (2003). The data controller is Storied Management. If you have any queries regarding this, please contact us at hello@storied.ie.
