This policy explains what personal information 365 Fashion collects when you use this website, why we collect it, how long we keep it and the choices you have.
Who we are
365 Fashion (365fashion.co.uk) is a fashion and beauty news website published by Katisfaction Ltd, which also publishes 365 Retail, Hospitality & Leisure News and the Creative Retail Awards. Katisfaction Ltd is the data controller for the personal information described here. To contact us about this policy or your information, please use the form on our Contact page.
What we collect and why
When you contact us. If you use our contact form, we receive your name, company name (if you give one), email address and message by email. We use them only to reply to you and deal with your enquiry. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in answering messages sent to us.
When you sign up for our emails. If you sign up for 365 Fashion emails, we collect your email address and use Mailchimp, run by Intuit, to send them. Your details are held in the same Mailchimp account as the mailing list of our sister title 365 Retail, tagged so that you only receive the 365 Fashion emails you signed up for. Mailchimp records whether our emails are opened and which links are clicked, which helps us improve them. Our lawful basis is your consent, and you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email. See Intuit’s privacy statement for how Mailchimp handles data.
When you comment. If you leave a comment, we collect the name, email address and website you enter, your comment, and your IP address and browser details to help detect spam. Your name, website and comment are shown publicly; your email address is not. An anonymised string created from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you have a profile picture there (see Automattic’s privacy policy). Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in running a comments section and keeping it free of spam.
When you visit the site. Like most websites, our hosting provider keeps server logs, which record IP addresses, the pages requested and browser details, to keep the site secure and working. If you agree to analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics to understand how readers use the site, such as which stories are read most and roughly where readers are. It collects information such as the pages you visit, how you arrived and your device type, and Google sets cookies to do this. Our lawful basis is your consent, and Google Analytics does not run unless you agree. You can withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie button. Google’s use of this data is described in Google’s privacy policy. We do not use advertising tracking on this site.
Stories and press releases. When brands, PR agencies or individuals send us news, we use the names and contact details supplied to report the story and to follow up on it. Names, job titles and quotes provided for publication may appear in our articles.
Cookies
We keep cookies to a minimum. When you first visit, a banner asks whether you agree to non-essential cookies, and nothing non-essential is stored unless you agree. You can change your choice at any time using the cookie button at the bottom left of every page.
Necessary cookies make the site work: one remembers your cookie choices, and WordPress sets others when site staff log in. If you choose to save your details when leaving a comment, WordPress sets a functional cookie to remember them. Banner adverts on the site, such as those for the Creative Retail Awards, are served from our own website. If you agree to performance cookies, our web host, GoDaddy, also measures how quickly pages load for you.
Some articles include content embedded from other websites, such as videos and social media posts from YouTube, Instagram or TikTok. YouTube videos only load once you have accepted these cookies. Embedded content behaves as if you had visited the other website: those websites may collect data about you, use cookies and track your interaction with the content, under their own privacy policies. The site’s fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google’s servers and shares your IP address with Google.
Who we share information with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers who help us run the site and our email, such as our website hosting provider, Mailchimp for our emails and, if you agree to analytics cookies, Google Analytics, and only so they can provide that service to us. We may also disclose information if the law requires it.
Some of these providers, and the social media and video sites whose content we embed, may process data outside the UK. Where they do, they are responsible for using appropriate safeguards under UK data protection law.
How long we keep it
- Email sign-ups: until you unsubscribe.
- Messages sent through the contact form: for as long as we need them to deal with your enquiry and any follow-up.
- Comments and their details: for as long as the comment is published, so that follow-up comments can be recognised and approved.
- Server logs: for the period set by our hosting provider for security purposes.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you have the right to ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to object to or restrict how we use it, and to ask for it to be transferred to you or someone else. To make a request, please use our Contact page. We will respond within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. We would appreciate the chance to put things right first.
Links to other websites
Our articles link to brands, retailers and our sister titles 365 Retail, Hospitality & Leisure News and the Creative Retail Awards. Those websites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for how they use your information.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
