We also receive personal information indirectly, from the following sources in the following scenarios:

Cookie Policy

Embedded content

Sometimes we’ll embed content in our pages that we don’t control or operate. This is common for social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter. When you interact with these elements, which are always marked clearly, you’ve not interacted with our website but instead the service embedded, and we can’t guarantee what data is collected.

Search engine

Our website search is powered by Google. Search queries and results are logged anonymously to help us improve our website and search functionality. No user-specific data is collected by either us or any third party.

Google Analytics

We use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.

How we use personal information

We use the information that you have given us to keep you informed about news and events relating to our research programme.

We may share this information with the research programme partners and MailChimp.

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the lawful basis we rely on for processing this information is:

(a) Your consent.

You can remove your consent at any time. To do this, contact the Digital Youth Team at hello@digitalyouth.ac.uk

How we store your personal information

Your information is securely stored.

We keep your contact information for the duration of the research project, to 31 August 2025. We will then securely dispose of your information, in accordance with University of Nottingham guidelines
