Your privacy matters. Newman Finance Ltd collects only the information needed to answer enquiries, manage podcast communications, and understand how this website is used.
Last updated: 21 February 2025
A practical notice
This notice explains how we handle contact form details, guest proposals, mailing-list subscriptions, analytics information, and podcast-related messages under UK GDPR.
How this notice works
Your information stays purposeful.
Newman Finance Ltd, based in Bolton, is responsible for the personal data described here. We use it for specific reasons, keep it for defined periods, and protect it with sensible access controls.
The lawful basis will depend on the situation. We may rely on your consent, our legitimate interest in running and improving the podcast website, or steps needed before entering a contract.
01 / Information
Data we collect
We ask for details that let us respond properly. Nothing is collected simply because it might be useful.
Guest proposals
The professional details and idea you choose to share when proposing a guest appearance or podcast collaboration.
Mailing list and analytics
A mailing-list subscription uses your email address. With consent, analytics cookies may record anonymised usage information such as visited pages, browser type, and approximate regional trends.
02 / Purpose
How we use your data
We use contact details to reply to questions, discuss production work, review guest proposals, and keep a clear record of active conversations. We use subscription details to send podcast updates only when you have opted in.
Analytics information helps us see which pages are useful and where the website needs attention. We do not sell personal data or use it for unrelated advertising.
Reply clearly
We answer the enquiry you sent.
Send updates
Only after you choose to receive them.
Improve pages
We use aggregated website signals.
03 / Website cookies
Cookies have a clear job.
Essential cookies keep core features working. Analytics cookies are set only with consent through the site's cookie controls.
| Cookie type | Purpose | Choice |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Supports navigation and site functions. | Required for the site to work. |
| Analytics | Shows anonymised page-use patterns. | Set after consent. |
| Preference | Remembers a cookie choice. | Stored to respect your setting. |
04 / Your control
Your rights under UK GDPR
You can ask what we hold, correct it, or ask us to stop using it.
Access
Request a copy of your personal data.
Rectification
Ask us to correct inaccurate details.
Erasure
Request deletion where the law allows it.
Restriction
Ask us to limit how data is used.
Portability
Receive certain data in a usable format.
Objection
Object to processing based on legitimate interest.
To exercise a right, email [email protected] with enough detail for us to identify your request. We aim to respond within one month. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office if you think your data has been handled unlawfully.
05 / Keeping data safe
Retention and security
Enquiry and guest proposal data is normally kept for 12 months after the conversation ends. This gives Newman Finance Ltd enough time to deal with follow-up questions and maintain an accurate business record.
Mailing-list information remains until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove it. We use SSL-enabled connections, restricted account access, and sensible password controls to reduce the risk of unauthorised access.
No online service can remove every risk. If a serious personal-data incident occurs, we will take the steps required by UK data protection law.
