Overview
This policy explains what information is collected when you visit themanorhousewanstead.com (The Entertainer’s Home), why it is collected, how it is used, and your choices. It applies only to this site.
What we collect when you visit
– Server and CDN logs. Our hosting environment and content delivery network record technical details that your browser sends automatically: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, the pages you request, referring page, and the time of each request. These logs help us deliver the site reliably, keep it secure, and understand basic site performance.
– Cookies needed for site operation. WordPress sets session cookies for logged-in administrators. If you leave a comment, WordPress can store your name, email address, and (optionally) your website in cookies on your device so you do not have to retype them next time. See our separate Cookie Policy for details.
– Comments (if you post one). If you submit a comment on an article, we receive the text you write, the name and email address you provide, your IP address, and your browser user agent. This helps with moderation and basic anti-abuse measures.
– Emails you send us. If you email us, we receive the contents of your message and your email address.
How we use this information
We use log data to operate, secure, debug, and improve the site, including preventing abuse and diagnosing outages.
We use comment details to publish your comment, to moderate it in line with our house rules, and to deter spam or misuse.
We use emails you send to respond to your request and to manage our correspondence.
We do not run ads, affiliate tracking, analytics, or a newsletter on this site.
Legal bases (where applicable)
Where data protection laws require a legal basis, we rely on:
– Legitimate interests for operating, securing, and improving the site, including processing server/CDN logs and moderating comments.
– Your consent for optional commenter cookies stored on your device.
If we ever need to rely on another basis, we will explain it at the point of collection.
Cookies and local storage
This site uses functional cookies set by WordPress for logged-in administration and, if you choose, to remember your comment details. We do not use analytics, advertising, or social media tracking cookies.
For a full rundown of cookies used on this site and your choices, please see our Cookie Policy.
Who can see your data
– Our small editorial team with administrator access to the site’s backend, only as needed to run the site.
– Our hosting provider and content delivery network, which process server traffic and error logs as part of providing infrastructure.
– Service providers we use for site operations who are under confidentiality obligations. We do not sell personal information.
How long we keep it
– Server and CDN logs are retained for the period needed to operate and secure the site, and may be kept longer when investigating incidents.
– Published comments are kept on the site until you ask us to remove them or we remove them as part of moderation. Moderation metadata may be retained as needed for site integrity.
– Emails you send are kept for as long as needed to handle the correspondence and maintain reasonable records.
Where data is processed
Because we use hosting and a content delivery network, your information may be processed in multiple countries. We take steps to ensure appropriate protections are in place when data is transferred.
Your choices and rights
– You can refuse or clear non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Commenter cookies are optional.
– You can ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, request corrections, object to certain uses, or ask us to delete information where the law allows.
– If you believe your rights have been infringed, you can lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
Children
This site is aimed at an adult audience interested in home and interiors. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle personal information, we will update this page and adjust the revision date below. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.

Additional notes on WordPress
WordPress may set session cookies for logged-in administrators and stores commenter details as described above. Even when comments are closed on a specific article, our hosting and CDN layers continue to record server logs for security and reliability.
