Privacy Policy

Last updated: 27 October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how personal information is collected and used when you visit or interact with tmcgonagle.co.uk, operated by Tom Mcgonagle.

I take the privacy of visitors to this website seriously and aim to collect only the personal information reasonably necessary to operate the website, respond to enquiries and provide services that visitors have chosen to use.

1. Who is responsible for your information?

For the purposes of applicable UK data protection law, the person responsible for the personal information collected through this website is:

Tom Mcgonagle
Website: tmcgonagle.co.uk
Email: tmcgonagleuk@gmail.com

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or about information held about you, please contact me using this email address.

2. Information I collect

The personal information collected depends on how you use the website.

Contact and email forms

If you contact me using a form on the website, I may collect:

• your first name;

• your last name;

• your email address; and

• the contents of the message you send.

I use this information to receive, manage and respond to your enquiry.

Mailing list

If you choose to subscribe to the mailing list, I collect the information you provide through the subscription form, including your email address and, where requested, your name.

I use this information to send you the emails or updates you have chosen to receive.

Joining the mailing list is voluntary.

You can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe option included in mailing-list emails or by contacting me at tmcgonagleuk@gmail.com.

Website usage and analytics information

The website uses Wix and Wix Analytics.

Subject to your cookie choices, information about how visitors use the website may be collected. This can include information such as:

• pages visited;

• approximate visitor location;

• device and browser information;

• referring websites or sources;

• dates and times of visits;

• interactions with pages; and

• other technical or usage information.

I use this information to understand how the website is being used, identify which content is useful or popular, monitor the performance of the website and improve it.

I do not use website analytics to make decisions about individuals that have legal or similarly significant effects on them.

3. Why I use your personal information

I only use personal information where there is an appropriate reason for doing so.

Depending on the circumstances, this includes:

Consent

I rely on your consent where you:

• subscribe to the mailing list; or

• agree to the use of non-essential cookies and analytics technologies.

You can withdraw your consent at any time.

For mailing-list emails, you can unsubscribe using the unsubscribe option provided or contact me at tmcgonagleuk@gmail.com.

For cookies and analytics, you can change your choices using the cookie preferences or consent management controls available on the website.

Legitimate interests

Where you contact me directly or send a message using the website's contact facilities, I have a legitimate interest in receiving and responding to genuine enquiries and correspondence.

I only use information for this purpose where doing so does not override your privacy rights.

Legal obligations

I may also use or retain information where this is necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

4. Wix

This website is created and hosted using Wix.

Wix provides the technical infrastructure used to host and operate the website and may process information about visitors as part of providing these services.

Wix features used by the website include website hosting, Wix Blog, forms and Wix Analytics.

Information submitted through Wix functionality may therefore be stored or processed using Wix systems.

Wix operates internationally, which means information may in some circumstances be processed or stored outside the United Kingdom. Where international transfers of personal information take place, they are subject to applicable data-protection safeguards.

Further information about Wix's handling of personal information can be found in Wix's own Privacy Policy.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

This website uses cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies are small pieces of information stored on or accessed from your device when you visit a website. They can be used for purposes including providing essential website functionality, remembering preferences and understanding how a website is used.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate and do not require consent.

Other cookies, including non-essential analytics cookies, are used only where the appropriate consent has been given.

6. Cookie consent and Usercentrics

Cookie consent on this website is managed using Usercentrics Consent Management.

When you visit the website, the consent management system allows you to choose whether particular categories of non-essential cookies and tracking technologies may be used.

Your consent preferences may themselves need to be stored so that the website can remember your choices.

You can review or change your cookie preferences using the cookie settings or consent controls available on the website.

Declining non-essential cookies should not prevent you from accessing the main content of the website, although some optional features may operate differently.

7. Wix Analytics

I use Wix Analytics to understand how visitors use the website and to help improve its content and performance.

Where Wix Analytics involves non-essential cookies or similar technologies, these are subject to the choices you make through the website's consent management system.

Analytics information is used for statistical and website-management purposes rather than to identify individual visitors unnecessarily.

8. Who your information may be shared with

I do not sell your personal information.

Information may be processed or made available to service providers where this is necessary to operate the website. These may include:

• Wix, which hosts and provides functionality for the website;

• Wix Blog and other Wix website functionality;

• Usercentrics, which provides the consent-management system; and

• technical service providers involved in operating, securing or maintaining these services.

Information may also be disclosed where required by law or where reasonably necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal rights.

9. How long information is kept

I do not keep personal information for longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

In particular:

• mailing-list information is normally retained until you unsubscribe or ask for it to be deleted;

• contact-form and correspondence information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to deal with the enquiry and any relevant follow-up;

• information may be retained for longer where there is a legal, administrative or security reason for doing so; and

• analytics and technical information is retained in accordance with the settings and retention arrangements applying to the relevant Wix services.

When information is no longer required, it will be deleted or allowed to expire where reasonably practicable.

10. International data processing

Some of the technology providers used to operate this website are international organisations.

This means that personal information may sometimes be processed outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, the relevant service providers are responsible for applying appropriate safeguards as required by applicable data-protection law.

11. Your data-protection rights

Depending on the circumstances, UK data-protection law gives you rights in relation to your personal information.

These can include the right to:

• ask for access to personal information held about you;

• ask for inaccurate information to be corrected;

• ask for your information to be deleted in certain circumstances;

• ask for processing to be restricted in certain circumstances;

• object to certain uses of your personal information;

• receive certain information in a portable format where applicable; and

• withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, contact me at:

tmcgonagleuk@gmail.com

I may need to obtain sufficient information to confirm your identity before responding to a request involving personal information.

12. Complaints

If you have concerns about how I handle your personal information, please contact me first at tmcgonagleuk@gmail.com so that I have an opportunity to address the issue.

You also have the right to make a complaint to the UK's data-protection regulator, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

Information about making a complaint and exercising your data-protection rights is available from the ICO at ico.org.uk.

13. Security

Reasonable steps are taken to protect personal information collected through the website.

However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and information transmitted online is provided at your own risk.

14. Links to other websites

This website may contain links to other websites.

This Privacy Policy applies only to tmcgonagle.co.uk. I am not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites, and you should check their privacy information separately where appropriate.

15. Changes to this Privacy Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, including where the website, the services it uses or applicable legal requirements change.

The latest version will be published on this page and the date at the top of the policy will be updated.
