Privacy Policy

Last updated: 8 October 2026

Thrive After Fifty respects your privacy. This policy explains how personal information is collected and used when you visit www.thriveafter50.co.uk, request a resource, subscribe to emails or contact us.

Who is responsible for your information?

Thrive After Fifty is operated by [insert your name or registered business name], who is responsible for the personal information described in this policy.

For privacy questions or requests, email contactatthrive@gmail.com.

Information collected and why

Names and email addresses: When you request an emailed resource or subscribe, we collect the details you enter to deliver the resource and send the emails you agree to receive. MailerLite manages our mailing list and email delivery. We also keep records of subscription consent and unsubscribe requests.

Messages: If you contact us, we use your email address and the information you provide to respond. Please avoid sending sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for your enquiry.

Website information: Squarespace hosts this website and provides Squarespace Analytics. Information processed may include your IP address, browser and device details, pages visited, referring websites and visit times. This helps operate and protect the website and understand how visitors use it.

Providing your contact details is voluntary. Without an email address, we cannot send an emailed resource or reply by email. Resources available as direct downloads do not require a newsletter subscription.

Legal grounds for using information

We rely on your consent to send marketing emails. You can withdraw that consent at any time using the unsubscribe link in an email.

We rely on legitimate interests to respond to enquiries, administer the website and keep it secure, while considering your privacy rights.

Where consent is required for analytics cookies or similar technologies, we rely on your cookie choices.

Cookies and analytics

Cookies are small files stored on your device. This website uses necessary cookies for essential functions and may use analytics cookies to understand visitor activity.

You can manage optional cookies through the cookie banner or Cookie Preferences control. You can also manage cookies in your browser.

International processing

Our providers may process information outside the UK. Their data-processing terms describe the safeguards used for international transfers, which may include adequacy arrangements and approved contractual protections. Contact us if you would like further information.

How long information is kept

Subscriber information is retained while you remain subscribed and it is needed to manage the mailing list. After you unsubscribe, a limited suppression record may be retained to prevent further marketing emails.

Enquiries are retained for as long as needed to answer them, resolve follow-up matters and meet any applicable legal requirements.

Consent records are retained where needed to demonstrate how permission was obtained. Website and analytics records are subject to the provider’s retention settings and operational requirements.

Affiliate links and external websites

Some links are affiliate links. If you follow one and make a purchase, Thrive After Fifty may earn a commission.

External websites, including retailers and social platforms, process information under their own privacy policies. Their cookies and tracking practices may differ from ours.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal information, restrict its use, object to processing or request a portable copy.

Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw it without affecting processing that took place before withdrawal.

To make a request, email contactatthrive@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office:
