Who we are
Our website address is: http://www.socialresearchcollective.org.
Currently, the Social Research Collective is not a company or legal entity in its own right. We are a collective of individual freelancers who collaborate or advise one another on a case-by-case basis, as each project requires.
This website is hosted and administered by Gill Main and Ewan Main.
Cookies
This website doesn’t use any cookies or tracking mechanisms. We don’t collect any data about you unless you choose to provide it via the contact form. We don’t need you to login, identify yourself or give us your information in any way.
(We’ll update this text whenever that changes.)
Embedded content from other places
Pages on this site may include embedded content from other places—things like YouTube videos, tweets, and so on. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website. If it’s our original content (e.g. if we make a YouTube video and embed it on this website) we will have access to that information in the same way any other publisher would, through that platform.
When you contact us
If you get in touch with us by our contact form, email, social media or any other enquiry mechanism listed on this site, we’ll treat that as your giving us your consent to store and use your details purely for the purposes of responding to and (we hope!) working with you in some way. If you’ve contacted us by publicly-viewable channels we’ll assume you’re happy for us to respond the same way, unless you tell us otherwise.
If you contact any of us individually regarding possible work, we will discuss your request together and likely collaborate on the project on an ongoing basis. Please therefore consider this privacy policy as applying to us as one collective unit rather than any specific individual(s). If you would prefer that we request your permission before discussing your project, please let us know and we will respect your preferences.
We’ll never provide your information to anybody else or use it for any other purpose. We do like to share examples, learning, information and other outputs of our work for everyone’s benefit—that is one of our key underlying purposes—but, if we are working with you, we’ll discuss whether and how you’d be happy with that.
