Privacy policy

Last updated: 23/05/2025

This Privacy Policy explains how I, Diana Beavon, collect, use, and protect any personal information you provide when you use my website or services. I take your privacy seriously and will always handle your information with care and transparency.

1. Who I Am

I’m Diana Beavon, an independent celebrant based in Bristol, UK. If you have any questions about this policy, you can contact me at:

Email: hello@dianacelebrant.com

Postal address: Available on request

2. What Information I Collect

I may collect the following types of personal information when you get in touch or use my services:

Your name
Your contact details (email address, phone number)
Ceremony details (e.g. type of ceremony, location, date)
Personal stories or preferences you choose to share (to help shape your ceremony)
Any other relevant information you choose to provide in enquiries, forms, or questionnaires

I do not collect sensitive personal data (e.g. health, ethnicity, religion) unless it is clearly relevant to your ceremony and provided with your consent.

3. How I Use Your Information

I use your information to:

Respond to your enquiries
Plan and personalise your ceremony
Send drafts and updates related to your ceremony
Keep in touch about logistics or other arrangements
Maintain records of ceremonies for my business records

I will never use your personal information for marketing without your explicit consent.

4. How Your Data is Stored

Your information is stored securely, either digitally (on password-protected devices or cloud-based services) or on paper (in a locked location). I take care to keep your data safe and only accessible to me.

5. Sharing Your Data

I will never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
I may share limited information with trusted suppliers (such as a venue or photographer) only if necessary for your ceremony—and only with your permission.

6. How Long I Keep Your Information

I keep your information for as long as is reasonably necessary—usually for up to 12 months after your ceremony—unless I’m required to keep it for legal, financial, or record-keeping purposes. You can ask me to delete your information sooner.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

Request a copy of the personal data I hold about you
Ask me to correct, update, or delete your information
Withdraw consent at any time (if consent is the basis for processing)
Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)

8. Cookies & Website Use

My website may use basic cookies (such as analytics) to improve the browsing experience. These don’t collect personal data unless you explicitly provide it (e.g. via a contact form). You can adjust your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer.

9. Updates to This Policy

I may update this privacy policy occasionally to reflect changes to my services or legal requirements. The latest version will always be available on this page.
