Privacy Policy

Who we are

Our website address is: http://www.sarahdillon.me.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Our analytics plugin uses a cookieless method to detect returning visitors and unique pageviews.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). 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 tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

What rights you have over your data

If you have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Who we share your data with

By default we do not share any personal data with anyone.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Are you…?

… a translator, interpreter or language professional? I used to be one too. You can read what I wrote about that here.

… interested in pursuing a research degree, e.g. MRes, MPhil, PhD? I’ve done a couple of those. I share resources here.

… a former student or colleague? I would love to reconnect.

Work with me

Businesses work with me to improve international reach, internal efficiencies, and readiness for global markets, often through the smart application of relevant digital technologies.

Associations, organisations and community groups engage me to speak about cultural intelligence, entrepreneurial thinking or digital competencies.

Interested? Let’s talk.

Find me

I’m currently based in the west of Ireland (UTC + 1), but enjoy working with people all over the world.
