Who I am
My website address is: http://lvowen.com. This is purely a personal online portfolio for myself, Lindsey Owen.
What personal data is collected and why
As this site is purely for the purpose of displaying my work, there is no real personal data collected by it. If a user chooses to contact me via the contact page, then they are agreeing that the email address they provide and any information they disclose in the body of the message will be forwarded to myself and maybe processed by the web hosting co. I will not hold onto this information any longer than necessary and it will be deleted after a short while.
