Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Perimenopause UK collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. Last updated July 2026.
Who we are
Perimenopause UK (“we”, “us”) publishes independent, evidence-first reporting on perimenopause and midlife women’s health at perimenopauseuk.com. You can reach us at privacy@perimenopauseuk.com.
What we collect
- Usage data. Basic, mostly aggregated analytics such as pages visited, referring site, approximate region, device and browser type. We use this to understand what readers find useful and to improve the site.
- Information you give us. If you email us or sign up for updates, we hold the details you provide (such as your email address) to respond and to send what you asked for.
We do not ask for or want health information about you, and you should not send us any.
Cookies and analytics
We use a small number of cookies and privacy-respecting analytics to measure traffic and keep the site working. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; core reading of the site does not depend on them.
How we use your information
- To operate, secure, and improve the website.
- To respond to your messages and requests.
- To send updates only where you have asked to receive them.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data to make automated decisions about you.
Sharing
We share data only with the service providers that help us run the site (for example hosting and analytics providers), under contracts that require them to protect it, or where the law requires us to.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to data portability. To exercise any of these, email privacy@perimenopauseuk.com. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a new “last updated” date.
