Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026. This page explains what information Lymhedema.uk collects and how it's used.

1. Who we are

Lymhedema.uk ("we", "our", "us") is an independent, reader-supported information website. This policy explains what data we collect when you visit, and your rights over that data.

2. Information we collect

We collect information in a few limited ways:

• Analytics data: pages visited, approximate location (country/region), device type, and referral source (for example, Pinterest), collected automatically through standard analytics tools.

• Information you provide: if you use our contact form or subscribe to updates, we collect your name and email address.

• Cookies: small files used for basic site functionality and to understand aggregate visitor behaviour. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.

3. How we use information

We use collected information to operate and improve the site, respond to messages, send updates you've opted into, and understand which content is genuinely useful to visitors. We do not sell personal information to third parties.

4. Affiliate links & third parties

This site contains affiliate links. When you click through to a retailer and make a purchase, that retailer's own privacy policy governs the data collected on their site — we do not receive your payment or shipping details. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more.

5. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data. To make a request, contact us at hello@lymhedema.uk.

6. Data retention

We retain contact form submissions and subscriber information only as long as needed to respond to you or provide the updates you requested, or until you ask us to delete it.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy occasionally. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.

8. Contact

Questions about this policy can be sent to hello@lymhedema.uk or via our contact page.
