This privacy notice explains how Wookey Primary School collects and uses personal information through this website. We take your privacy seriously and comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

What information we collect
Contact form enquiries
When you use the contact form on this website, we collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- The content of your message
This information is submitted via Netlify Forms and stored securely. We use it only to respond to your enquiry. We do not share this information with third parties unless required to do so by law.
Website analytics
This website does not use cookies for tracking or analytics. We do not use Google Analytics or any similar third-party analytics service. The website does not load any third-party scripts, and all content, fonts and images are served from our own website, so simply browsing the site does not share your information with other companies.
Cookies and local storage
This website does not use any cookies. We do not use cookies for advertising, tracking or analytics, and you do not need to accept a cookie banner to use the site.
To make the site easier to use, we store a small amount of information in your browser’s “local storage”:
| What we store | Purpose | Where it is kept |
|---|---|---|
| Your accessibility settings (colour theme, font and text size) | To remember your display preferences as you move around the site and on future visits | Your browser only |
This information stays on your device, is not personal data, and is never sent to us or to any third party. You can remove it at any time by clearing your browser’s site data. Because it is strictly necessary to provide a feature you have chosen, we do not need to ask for your consent.
If you use the staff content management area at /admin/, a sign-in cookie is used to keep you logged in. This applies only to staff editors who log in, not to general visitors.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Rectification of inaccurate personal data
- Erasure of your personal data in certain circumstances
- Restrict the processing of your personal data
- Object to the processing of your personal data
- Data portability to receive your data in a structured, commonly used format
To exercise any of these rights, please contact the school office using the details above.
How long we keep your data
Contact form submissions are retained for as long as is necessary to respond to and resolve your enquiry, after which they are deleted. We do not retain form data beyond what is operationally necessary.
