Last updated: October 16, 2026. This policy explains how West Sussex Energy Partners handles information associated with its public mineral and royalty library and website inquiries. It applies to this website; a separate written agreement may govern a professional engagement.
Information you provide
The Contact form asks for your name, email address, and message. We use that information to respond to inquiries, investigate corrections, address privacy requests, and maintain related records. Please provide only what is needed for an initial inquiry. Do not send Social Security numbers, financial account credentials, confidential title files, medical information, or other sensitive records through the public form.
Website hosting and technical information
This site is hosted by WordPress.com. Its provider, Automattic, may process contact submissions and technical information such as IP addresses, browser details, page visits, search activity, and cookies to operate the site, provide statistics, and prevent spam or abuse. Provider practices depend on the features in use. Read the Automattic notice for site visitors and Cookie Policy.
How information is used and shared
We use inquiries for the purpose of responding and administering the website and related requests. Sending an inquiry does not enroll you in a newsletter or authorize publication of your message. We do not sell contact-form submissions. Information may be processed by website-hosting, email, and spam-prevention providers, or disclosed when necessary to comply with applicable law or protect legitimate rights. Those providers maintain their own privacy practices.
Cookies and your choices
You can use your browser settings to restrict or delete cookies. Some website functions may not work as intended when cookies are disabled. If you use a WordPress.com subscription or account feature, use the controls provided by that service to manage it. Links to outside websites are governed by those websites’ policies.
Retention and security
We retain inquiry records for as long as reasonably needed to respond, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, or meet applicable obligations. Hosting and email providers may retain technical records or backups under their own policies. We use reasonable administrative and technical measures, but cannot guarantee that internet communications are completely secure.
Privacy requests
Use the Contact page to request access, correction, or deletion of information you supplied, or to ask a privacy question. Include enough detail to identify the relevant inquiry, without sending additional sensitive records. We may need to verify your identity and may retain information where applicable law or legitimate recordkeeping requires it. These procedures do not limit rights you may have under applicable law. Requests concerning a WordPress.com account should also be directed to Automattic through its own privacy channels.
Children
This website is intended for adults researching mineral ownership and related topics. The Contact form is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child has supplied personal information, contact us so that we can review the matter.
Policy updates
We may revise this policy as the website or its services change. The updated date above identifies the current version. See also our Terms of Use.
