Disclosure of Your Information
Any information you provide to us may be emailed directly to us and/or stored securely within the systems we use to operate Sober Essex. We use a trusted third-party website and hosting provider (Wix) to facilitate the running and management of this website. We also use an email communications provider (MailerLite) to manage mailing lists and send emails such as updates, newsletters and challenge/support emails where you have asked to receive them. These providers act as “data processors” on our behalf and are bound by contract to keep any information they process confidential and secure.
Email Communications
If you sign up to receive our emails (for example, a 30-day challenge, newsletter, event updates or support emails), we will use your name and email address to send the emails you requested. We only send marketing emails where you have given your consent, and you can withdraw your consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us at info@soberessex.com

Some of our service providers may store or process personal data outside the UK. Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in line with UK data protection law.
How Long We Keep Your Data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes we collected it for. If you join our mailing list, we keep your details until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete your information (unless we need to keep it for legal or accounting reasons).
