This Privacy Policy applies in addition to the terms and conditions of my Site.

For users in the European Union, I adhere to the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016, known as the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”).

By using my Site users agree that they consent to:

The conditions set out in this Privacy Policy.
