This Privacy Policy explains how mySussex.com (“mySussex,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit mysussex.com (the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Information you give us. When you contact us, submit a “Get Featured” request, or sign up for our newsletter, we collect the details you provide — such as your name, email address, business information, and any message content.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect certain technical data when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, and the pages you view. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies (see below).
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember your preferences, understand how the Site is used, and serve and measure advertising. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect how the Site works.
Advertising
We use Google AdSense to display advertising on the Site. As part of this:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to the Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info (or youronlinechoices.eu in the EU).
For more on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see Google’s Privacy & Terms. Where required by law, we ask for your consent before serving personalized ads, and you can change your choices at any time through the consent controls on the Site.
Affiliate links
Some links on the Site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase or booking, at no additional cost to you. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
Analytics
We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve our content. These tools may set cookies and collect usage data such as pages visited and time on site, in aggregated or pseudonymous form.
Maps
Some pages display maps using OpenStreetMap data. When a map loads, your browser may contact the map tile provider, which can receive your IP address as part of delivering the map imagery.
How we use information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content;
- To respond to your inquiries and process “Get Featured” and contact submissions;
- To send our newsletter if you have subscribed (you can unsubscribe at any time);
- To display and measure advertising;
- To protect the Site against fraud, abuse, and security threats; and
- To comply with legal obligations.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information with service providers who help us run the Site (such as our hosting provider, advertising partners, email service provider, and analytics providers), and where required by law or to protect our rights. Advertising and analytics partners may act as independent controllers of the data they collect through their cookies, as described in their own privacy policies.
Your rights (EEA/UK)
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have rights under the GDPR, including the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to our processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability. Where we rely on consent (for example, for personalized advertising), you may withdraw it at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
Your rights (United States)
Depending on your state of residence (for example, California under the CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion, to correct inaccurate information, and to opt out of “sales” or “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. You can exercise applicable opt-out choices using the advertising controls described above and the privacy controls on the Site.
Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Data retention
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
Third-party links
The Site links to third-party websites (including the businesses we cover and our affiliate partners). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites; please review their policies.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
