This page outlines how Sustainable Insights handles personal data, analytics, and legal responsibility. The platform is designed to minimize data collection and to operate in line with applicable European data protection and transparency requirements.
Privacy and personal data
Sustainable Insights does Analytics and future measurement
To better understand how the platform is used, Sustainable Insights may in the future deploy privacy-conscious analytics.
If analytics are enabled:
- Preference will be given to tools that minimise personal data processing;
- IP addresses will be anonymised where applicable;
- Data will be used exclusively for aggregate insights into website usage;
- No data will be sold or shared for commercial advertising purposes.
Where required under EU law, visitors will be informed and given appropriate choices before non-essential cookies are placed. Sustainable Insights does not intentionally collect or process personal data for tracking, profiling, or advertising purposes, and analytics are configured to operate without identifying individual users.
At present:
- No user accounts are offered to the public;
- No contact forms requiring personal data are actively used;
- No profiling or advertising technologies are deployed.
The website is built on WordPress, which may place strictly necessary technical cookies required for core functionality, security, and performance. These cookies do not track users across websites and are not used for marketing purposes.
