This Privacy Policy describes how Earth Curiosa (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses your information when you use our website (the “Website”), in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
Data Controller
Earth Curiosa is the data controller responsible for your personal information. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, you can contact us at contact@earthcuriosa.com.
Information We Collect
We collect two types of information on the Website:
- Personal Information: This is information that can be used to identify you as an individual, such as your name, email address, and any other information you voluntarily provide to us. We only collect personal information when you choose to provide it, such as by signing up for our newsletter or contacting us directly.
- Non-Personal Information: This is information that does not identify you as an individual, such as your browsing history, IP address, and device information. We collect non-personal information automatically through your use of the Website, including through cookies and similar technologies (see “Cookies and Analytics” below).
Legal Basis for Processing
We only process your personal information where we have a valid legal basis to do so. Depending on the circumstances, this includes:
- Consent: For example, when you sign up for our newsletter. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate interests: For example, using analytics to understand how visitors use the Website and improve our content, where this does not override your rights and interests.
- Legal obligation: For example, where we are required to retain or disclose information to comply with the law.

- Respond to your inquiries and requests.
- Send you our newsletter (if you sign up).
- Improve the Website and our services.

Cookies and Analytics
The Website uses cookies and similar technologies to operate correctly and to help us understand how visitors use our content. This may include analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) and embedded third-party video or audio players (such as YouTube), which may set their own cookies when you interact with them.
Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies, and you will be able to manage your preferences through a cookie banner or your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Website functions.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. As a general guide:
- Newsletter subscriber details are kept for as long as you remain subscribed, and are deleted or anonymized within a reasonable period after you unsubscribe.
- Contact form or email correspondence is kept for as long as needed to resolve your inquiry and for a reasonable period afterward for record-keeping.
- Non-personal analytics data may be retained for longer periods in aggregated or anonymized form.
Sharing Your Information
We will not share your personal information with any third party without your consent, except:
- To service providers who help us operate the Website, such as email marketing or analytics providers. These service providers are obligated to keep your information confidential and to process it only as instructed by us.
- To comply with legal or regulatory requirements.
- In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a part of our assets.
International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers, such as email marketing or analytics platforms, may store or process data outside the United Kingdom, including in the United States. Where this occurs, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as relying on providers certified under recognized data protection frameworks or standard contractual clauses approved for use under UK GDPR.
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no website or internet transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of your information.

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Request deletion of your personal information.
- Object to or restrict certain processing of your information.
- Request a portable copy of your information in a machine-readable format.
- Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at contact@earthcuriosa.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by law.
