We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your data.

This website is run by Tove Petterson, organisation number: 917436266, Valhallgata 5, 5531 Haugesund, Norway. I am the data controller for any personal information collected through this site. If you have a question about your data, or want it corrected or deleted, write to me at tovepetterson@me.com and I will handle it myself.

This site uses a small number of cookies set by systeme.io, the platform the site is built on. They keep the site working and remember whether you have filled in a form. I do not use advertising cookies, I do not run tracking pixels, and I do not build profiles of visitors.

Notion is a workspace tool I use to organise workshops. It does not run on this website and sets nothing in your browser. Your details only reach it if you sign up for a workshop.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Forms on the site may stop working properly if you do.

How I use your personal information

I use what you give me to:

• Reply to you when you write to me through the contact form.

• Send you word when a workshop opens, if you have asked to be on the list.

• Organise a workshop you have signed up for, which means keeping a participant list in Notion with who is coming, what dive qualifications you hold, and anything you have told me about food.

systeme.io and Notion are the only two places your details are stored. Neither of them is allowed to use your information for anything other than providing their service to me.

Your details sit in systeme.io, the platform this site runs on, which handles the hosting and the security. The site runs over an encrypted connection, and my account is protected with a strong password and two-factor authentication.

For workshops I also keep a participant list in Notion, so I have the practical details to hand when I am organising. Same protection there: a strong password, two-factor authentication, and nobody else with access to it.

I am the only person who sees any of this. Nothing is kept on paper.

I keep past workshop lists rather than deleting them, because people come back and I would rather know who has already been on a weekend with me than ask them again. If you would prefer me to remove you, write and say so and I will.

No system is completely secure. If anything ever happened that put your information at risk, I would tell you and report it as required.

You have the right to:

• See the personal information I hold about you.

• Have it corrected if it is wrong.

• Have it deleted, unless I am required to keep it for accounting or legal reasons.

• Ask me to stop using it, or to limit how I use it.

• Get a copy of what you gave me in a form you can take elsewhere.

• Withdraw your consent at any time, which for the mailing list means unsubscribing or telling me to take you off.

• Complain to Datatilsynet, the Norwegian Data Protection Authority, if you think I have handled your information badly.

Write to me at tovepetterson@me.com and I will deal with it myself. You will hear back within a month, and usually a lot sooner than that.
