Embedded content from other websites
We use a Twitter Feed plugin to display social media content on our website. As a result, our website makes requests to Twitter’s servers in order to display images and videos. These requests make your IP address visible to Twitter, who may use it in accordance with their data privacy policy: twitter.com/en/privacy#update
The Tweets displayed in the Twitter feed include the ability to Reply, Share, or Like the Tweet directly on our website. If you choose to interact with these functions then you will make a connection to Twitter.com, who may collect your IP address, your web browser User Agent, store and retrieve cookies on your browser, embed additional tracking, and monitor your interaction with the widget, including correlating your Twitter account with whatever action you take within the widget (such as “liking” a Tweet), if you are logged in to Twitter. For more information about how this data may be used, please see Twitter’s data privacy policy.
Who we share your data with
Except as set out here, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any information collected through our website.
How long we retain your data
We will keep contact form entries and member account (email and password) details for five years (unless, the agiLab research hub closes before that time, in which case all data will be deleted at that point).
