Sill Shade (“we”, “our”) operates sillshade.com. This page explains what information we collect and how we use it.
Information we collect
Comments: when you leave a comment we collect the name, email address, and comment content you provide, plus your IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam.
Contact form: when you contact us we receive the name, email address, and message you submit. We use it only to reply to you.
Analytics & cookies: we use standard analytics tools (such as Google Search Console and, if enabled, Google Analytics) that may set cookies to understand how visitors use the site in aggregate. We do not sell personal information.
Embedded content
Articles may include embedded content (for example videos or maps). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited that website directly, and those sites may collect data about you.
How long we retain your data
Approved comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so follow-up comments can be recognized. Contact form messages are kept only as long as needed to respond.
Your rights
If you have left comments or contacted us, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, or ask us to erase it, by using our contact form.
