1. Who we are

Menopause Money is a platform designed to start conversations and provide information around menopause and money.

For the purposes of UK data protection law, Menopause Money is the data controller responsible for the personal information collected through this website.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how your personal information is used, please contact:

We only ask for information that is relevant to the service or communication you have requested.

3. Special category information

Some of the topics discussed by Menopause Money relate to menopause, health and wellbeing.

Health information can be classed as special category personal data under UK data protection law.

We will not intentionally ask you to provide detailed personal medical information through the website unless there is a clear reason for doing so. If you voluntarily provide health-related information through a survey, form or communication, we will only use it for the purpose explained to you at the point of collection and where we have an appropriate lawful basis and condition for processing it.

Where possible, survey or research information will be anonymised before being used to identify trends or insights.

We will not use your personal information for purposes that are incompatible with those described in this Privacy Policy without telling you first.

5. Our lawful basis for using your information

Under UK data protection law, we need a lawful basis for processing personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

Consent – for example, when you choose to subscribe to the Menopause Money newsletter or agree to certain non-essential cookies.

Legitimate interests – where it is reasonably necessary for us to operate and improve Menopause Money, understand how the website is being used, respond to enquiries or protect the website, provided that those interests do not override your rights and freedoms.

Legal obligation – where we need to process information to comply with a legal requirement.

Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time.

6. Email marketing and newsletters

If you sign up to the Menopause Money newsletter, we will use the information you provide to send you emails about Menopause Money, including relevant information, resources, news, events and updates.

We will only send marketing emails where we have an appropriate lawful basis to do so.

You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included at the bottom of our emails.

You can also contact us directly and ask to be removed from the mailing list.

7. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information with trusted third-party service providers where this is necessary to operate Menopause Money and the website.

These may include providers that help us with:

Website hosting and management
Email marketing and newsletter distribution
Website analytics
Online forms and surveys
IT and technical services
Professional or legal services

Our website is hosted using Wix, which may process certain information on our behalf in connection with hosting, website functionality, analytics and security.

Where third parties process personal information on our behalf, we expect them to handle that information securely and in accordance with applicable data protection law.

We may also disclose information where required to do so by law.

8. International data transfers

Some of the service providers we use may process or store personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that it receives an appropriate level of protection in accordance with UK data protection law.

This may include relying on UK adequacy regulations or appropriate contractual safeguards.

9. Cookies

The Menopause Money website may use cookies and similar technologies.

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. Others may help us understand how visitors use the website or enable additional functionality.

Where required, we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie banner or settings available on the website.

Further information about the cookies we use can be found in our Cookie Policy.

10. How long we keep your information

We only keep personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

For example:

Newsletter subscriber information will generally be kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.
Enquiry information will be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to deal with the enquiry and maintain appropriate records.
Survey and research information may be retained in anonymised form once it is no longer necessary to identify individual respondents.

We may retain certain information for longer where required by law or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

11. Keeping your information secure

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure or alteration.

Where we use third-party platforms and service providers, we select providers that offer appropriate security measures for the information they process.

However, no online service can guarantee absolute security.

Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
Ask us to delete your personal information in certain circumstances
Ask us to restrict how your information is used
