Who I Am

This website is operated by Sally Gutteridge, an independent author and canine behaviour practitioner. You can contact me at sally@sallygutteridge.com with any questions about how I handle your personal data.

What Information I Collect

When you visit or make a purchase on this website, I may collect the following information. Your name and email address when you buy a product or sign up to my mailing list. Your billing address where required to complete a transaction. Payment details, which are processed securely by Wix Payments and are never stored directly by me. Website usage data collected automatically via Wix analytics and cookies, including pages visited, time spent on the site, and your approximate location.

How I Use Your Information

I use the information I collect to process your orders and deliver your ebooks and webinars, to send you a purchase confirmation and any relevant product access details, to send you marketing emails and updates about new products, content, and offers where you have signed up to receive these, and to improve this website based on how visitors use it.

Your Legal Basis for Processing (UK GDPR)

I process your data on the following legal grounds. Contract, meaning I need your details to fulfil your order. Legitimate interests, for website analytics that help me improve the site. Consent, for marketing emails. You can withdraw your consent to marketing at any time by clicking unsubscribe in any email or contacting me directly.

This website is built on Wix and uses cookies to make the site function properly and to collect anonymous analytics data. Cookies are small files stored on your device. You can control cookie settings through your browser, though disabling certain cookies may affect how the site works. A cookie notice will be displayed on your first visit to the site in line with Wix's built-in cookie management tools.

Third Parties

I use Wix as my website and payment platform. Wix processes data on my behalf and operates under its own privacy policy, which you can read at wix.com/about/privacy. I do not sell your personal data to any third party.

Email Marketing

If you have signed up to my mailing list, I will send you emails about my work, new ebooks, webinars, and other relevant content. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email. I use Wix's built-in email marketing tools to manage this.

How Long I Keep Your Data

I retain purchase records for six years in line with HMRC requirements. If you unsubscribe from my mailing list, I will remove you from active mailings promptly. You can request deletion of your personal data at any time by emailing sally@sallygutteridge.com.

Your Rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to access the personal data I hold about you, to request correction of inaccurate data, to request deletion of your data, to object to or restrict how I process your data, and to data portability. To exercise any of these rights, please email sally@sallygutteridge.com and I will respond within one month.
