Your email address

There are a few reasons why you might choose to give me your email address.

• You may purchase something from the site.
• You subscribe to my newsletter.
• You register for the forum.
• You post a comment on this blog.

In each case your email address is stored securely although not always on my server. Newsletter subscriptions are held on Mailchimp, forum registrations with Vanilla and comments are handled by Disqus. For information on their privacy policies please visit their respective websites.

That said I can promise you that we will never share your email address with anybody outside these suppliers and my own company Headscape.

If at any point you wish your email address removed from any of these systems just drop me an email at paul@boagworld.com.
