1: Introduction

TheFakeGrassMan.com respects your right to privacy and complies with our obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) 2016/679. The purpose of this Website Privacy Statement is to outline how we handle any personal data you provide to us while visiting this website (https://www.thefakegrassman.com). By using this site, you accept the terms of this Privacy Statement.

Any external links to other websites are clearly identifiable as such. We are not responsible for the content or privacy policies of these external websites.

2: Types of Information Collected

2.1 “Non-personal data”

Like most websites, we gather statistical and analytical information collected on an aggregate basis from all visitors to our site. This non-personal data includes information that cannot be used to identify or contact you — for example, anonymised IP addresses, browser types, and general site usage statistics.

2.2 “Personal data”

Personal data refers to information that identifies you or can be used to identify or contact you. This may include your name, email address, IP address (where not anonymised), and any other information you voluntarily provide to us.

We collect personal data in the following ways:

  • When you fill out the contact form on our website (first name, surname, and email address).
  • When you contact us directly via email or phone.

This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry and is not shared or sold to third parties.

2.3 “Cookies”

Our site uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our site. This helps us provide you with a better browsing experience and allows us to improve our website. For detailed information on the cookies we use and their purpose, please see our Cookie Policy.

3: Purposes for Which We Hold Your Information

3.1 Non-personal data

We use non-personal data in aggregate form to better understand our visitor demographics, traffic patterns, and how the site is being used, helping us to improve its structure and content.

3.2 Personal data

We will process any personal data you provide to us for the following purposes:
(a) To respond to your enquiries submitted through the contact form or via email.
(b) To contact you if required in relation to your communication with us.
(c) To maintain website functionality and ensure compliance with legal obligations.

4: Disclosure of Information to Third Parties

We may share non-personal data with third parties in aggregated form — for example, website traffic statistics.

We do not disclose your personal data to any third party, except where required by law or where necessary to comply with a legal obligation. We do not sell, rent, or otherwise share your personal information for marketing or commercial purposes.

5: Sale of Business

In the event of a sale, merger, liquidation, receivership, or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of TheFakeGrassMan.com, we reserve the right to transfer information (including your personal data) to the acquiring party, provided that:

  • The third party agrees to uphold this Privacy Statement, and
  • The third party only uses your personal data for the purposes for which you originally provided it.

You will be notified of any such transfer and will have the opportunity to opt out.

6: Security

Your personal data is held on secure servers hosted by Blacknight Solutions Ltd.

While we take all reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data, please note that no method of data transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security but will always act in accordance with GDPR to safeguard your information.

Under GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Request correction or deletion of your personal data.
