Privacy Policy

This website is operated by JW Media Worldwide Ltd, trading as Nuffinbutfishing – a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17414543, with its registered office at North Lodge, North Lodge Court, South Horrington, Wells BA5 3DZ.

JW Media Worldwide Ltd is the data controller for the personal information described in this policy. That means we decide why and how your personal data is used, and we are responsible for looking after it.

For privacy enquiries, or to exercise any of the rights set out below, contact us at: support@nuffinbutfishing.com

We may collect the following personal information:

• Contact form submissions – your name, email address, and message content when you use our contact form.

• Newsletter sign-ups – your email address when you subscribe to our weekly dispatch.

• Tuition enquiries – your name, email address, and the details you give us about the session you're after. If the session is for someone under 18, we also ask for a parent or guardian's name so that Joe can correspond with them.

• Analytics data – anonymised usage data (pages visited, time on site) to help us understand how the site is used. No personally identifiable information is collected via analytics.

• Cookies – small files stored on your device to enable core site functionality. See our cookie section below.

We use your personal information only for the purpose it was collected:

• Contact form messages and tuition enquiries are used solely to reply to you and, if you go ahead, to arrange the session.

• Email addresses collected via newsletter sign-up are used to send the weekly fishing dispatch. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.

• We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

• We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling.

Under UK GDPR we must have a lawful basis for each way we use your personal data. Ours are:

• Newsletter – your consent, given when you subscribe. You can withdraw it at any time by unsubscribing, and we will stop sending to you.

• Contact messages and tuition enquiries – our legitimate interest in responding to you, and, where you go ahead with a session, the steps needed to enter into a contract with you.

• Site analytics and security – our legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used and keeping it running safely. The analytics we use do not identify individual visitors.

We use the following providers, some of which process personal data on our behalf:

• MailerLite – holds our newsletter list and sends the weekly report for us. Your email address, the date you subscribed and where on the site you signed up are stored in our MailerLite account.

• Resend – delivers contact form messages and tuition enquiries to our inbox as email.

• Vercel – hosts this website and provides privacy-focused analytics that use no cookies and do not identify individual visitors.

MailerLite, Resend and Vercel act on our instructions under written agreements and their own privacy policies.

Your browser also connects directly to services we don't control:

• Adobe Fonts – serves the site's typeface, so your browser requests font files from Adobe's servers.

• YouTube – embedded videos and channel links are subject to Google's privacy policy.

These act as independent controllers for any data your browser sends them. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites linked from this site.

Some of the providers above are based outside the United Kingdom. Where personal data is transferred outside the UK, it is protected either by the UK's adequacy regulations (for example, for providers in the European Economic Area) or by the International Data Transfer Agreement or standard contractual clauses approved for use in the UK, together with the provider's own security measures.

Our newsletter and content are intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Tuition sessions for anyone under 18 are arranged with a parent or guardian – which is why our enquiry form asks for their name – and we correspond about the session with them.

This website uses essential cookies required for normal operation. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. By using this site, you consent to essential cookies being set.

We also store a small amount of information in your browser's local storage to remember choices you have made – for example, that you have already subscribed to the newsletter, or that you dismissed a prompt, so we do not ask you again. This stays on your device, is never sent to us, and contains no identifiers.

You can manage or disable cookies, and clear local storage, in your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality.

We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed:

• Newsletter – until you unsubscribe, after which your address is removed from the active list.

• Contact messages and tuition enquiries – for as long as it takes to deal with your message and, if you book a session, to keep a record of the arrangement, after which they are deleted.

You may request deletion of your data at any time by emailing support@nuffinbutfishing.com.

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.

• Request correction of inaccurate data.

• Request deletion of your data.

• Object to processing of your data.

• Request restriction of processing.

• Data portability.

• Withdraw consent at any time where we rely on it – for example, by unsubscribing from the newsletter.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@nuffinbutfishing.com. We will respond within one month.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator, at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We would welcome the chance to address your concerns first, so please contact us before you do.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The date at the bottom of this page reflects when the policy was last updated. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
