Privacy Policy

When you book a session or get in touch, we collect: your name, contact details (email and/or phone), the names and ages of any children attending, and the contents of your message or booking notes.

For Family Bushcraft, Woodland Wolves, and Birthday Party sessions, attendee names and ages are recorded for every session. This is a safeguarding requirement. We need to know who is in the woods with us.

Payments for sessions are processed securely by Stripe. We do not see, store, or process your card details ourselves.

We use the information you give us only to run our sessions and stay in touch about your booking. That means: confirming your place, sending joining instructions, contacting you if a session has to be moved, and responding to your enquiries.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing. We do not pass attendee records to anyone outside Beowulf Bushcraft except where we are legally required to (for example, in a safeguarding referral).

If you tick the "Join our mailing list" box when booking or enquiring, or sign up via the form on our website, we add your name and email address to our newsletter list. We send occasional emails about new course dates, seasonal events, and woodland knowledge. We do not send unsolicited marketing.

Your mailing list subscription is managed by MailerLite (mailerlite.com). Your data is stored on their servers in accordance with their privacy policy. We use MailerLite solely for newsletter delivery and do not share your details with any other third parties.

You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by contacting us directly at contact@beowulfbushcraft.co.uk. Unsubscribing does not affect any booking records we hold.

We have a strict policy: we do not photograph other people's children. Any photos we share, on this site, on Instagram, or on Facebook, show the work, the woodland, the kit, and the activities. Not faces.

If we ever want to use a photograph that includes a child's face for marketing, we ask the parent or guardian for specific written permission first. You can withdraw that permission at any time.

This site uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to help us understand how visitors use it and where we can improve. GA4 collects anonymised data about page visits and interactions — it does not identify you personally. Analytics are delivered via Cloudflare Zaraz, which proxies all data server-side, meaning no Google scripts run directly in your browser.

A cookie consent banner is shown on your first visit. You can accept or decline analytics cookies at that point, and you can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser cookies or contacting us.

You can also disable cookies entirely in your browser settings.

Attendee records (names and ages) are kept for legitimate safeguarding purposes only, and for the period reasonably necessary to fulfil that purpose. Enquiry messages are kept for as long as we need them to respond and follow up.

You can ask us to delete your records at any time, except where we are legally required to retain them.

Under UK GDPR you have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; ask us to correct it if it's wrong; ask us to delete it; restrict or object to how we use it; and request a copy of your data in a portable format.

To exercise any of these rights, email contact@beowulfbushcraft.co.uk. We aim to respond within 30 days. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

For any data or privacy question, write to contact@beowulfbushcraft.co.uk and mark your message "Privacy". We'll come back to you as quickly as we can.
