Website privacy policy. We are
committed to safeguarding the
privacy of our website visitors;
this policy sets out how we will
treat your personal information. (1)
What information do we collect? We
may collect, store and use the
following kinds of personal data:
(a) information about your visits to
and use of this website; (b)
information about any transactions
carried out between you and us on or
in relation to this website,
including information relating to
any purchases you make of our goods
or services; (c) information that
you provide to us for the purpose of
registering with us and/or
subscribing to our website services
and/or email notifications; and (2)
Information about website visits We
may collect information about your
computer and your visits to this
website such as your IP address,
geographical location, browser type,
referral source, length of visit and
number of page views. We may use
this information in the
administration of this website, to
improve the website’s usability, and
for marketing purposes. We use
cookies on this website. A cookie is
a text file sent by a web server to
a web browser, and stored by the
browser. The text file is then sent
back to the server each time the
browser requests a page from the
server. This enables the web server
to identify and track the web
browser. We may send a cookie which
may be stored on by your browser on
your computer’s hard drive. We may
use the information we obtain from
the cookie in the administration of
this website, to improve the
website’s usability and for
marketing purposes. We may also use
that information to recognise your
computer when you visit our website,
and to personalise our website for
you. Our advertisers may also send
you cookies. Most browsers allow you
to refuse to accept cookies. (For
example, in Internet Explorer you
can refuse all cookie by clicking
“Tools”, “Internet Options”,
“Privacy”, and selecting “Block all
cookies” using the sliding
selector.) This will, however, have
a negative impact upon the usability
of many websites (3) Using your
personal data Personal data
submitted on this website will be
used for the purposes specified in
this privacy policy or in relevant
parts of the website. In addition to
the uses identified elsewhere in
this privacy policy, we may use your
personal information to: (a) improve
your browsing experience by
personalising the website; (b) send
information (other than marketing
communications) to you which we
think may be of interest to you by
post or by email or similar
technology; (c) send to you
marketing communications relating to
our business or the businesses of
carefully-selected third parties
which we think may be of interest to
you by post or, where you have
specifically agreed to this, by
email or similar technology (you can
inform us at any time if you no
longer require marketing
communications to be sent by
emailing us at EMAIL)3; (d) provide
other companies with statistical
information about our users – but
this information will not be used to
identify any individual user; and We
will not without your express
consent provide your personal
information to any third parties for
the purpose of direct marketing. (4)
Other disclosures In addition to the
disclosures reasonably necessary for
the purposes identified elsewhere in
this privacy policy, we may disclose
information about you: (a) to the
extent that we are required to do so
by law; (b) in connection with any
legal proceedings or prospective
legal proceedings; (c) in order to
establish, exercise or defend our
legal rights (including providing
information to others for the
purposes of fraud prevention and
reducing credit risk); and (d) to
the purchaser or seller (or
prospective purchaser or seller) of
any business or asset which we are
(or are contemplating) selling or
purchasing.5 Except as provided in
this privacy policy, we will not
provide your information to third
parties. (5) International data
transfers Information that we
collect may be stored and processed
in and transferred between any of
the countries in which we operate in
order to enable us to use the
information in accordance with this
privacy policy. If you are in the
European Union, information which
you provide may be transferred to
countries which do not have data
protection laws equivalent to those
in force in the European Union. You
expressly agree to such transfers.
(6) Security of your personal data
We will take reasonable precautions
to prevent the loss, misuse or
alteration of your personal
information. Of course, data
transmission over the internet is
inherently insecure, and we cannot
guarantee the security of data sent
over the internet. We will store all
the personal information you provide
on our secure servers. All
electronic transactions you make to
or receive from us will be encrypted
using SSL technology. 7 You are
responsible for keeping your
password confidential. We will not
ask you for your password. (7)
Policy amendments We may update this
privacy policy from time-to-time by
posting a new version on our
website. You should check this page
occasionally to ensure you are happy
with any changes. We may also notify
you of changes to our privacy policy
by email. (8) Your rights You may
instruct us to provide you with any
personal information we hold about
you. Provision of such information
may be subject to the payment of a
fee (currently fixed at £10.00). You
may instruct us not to process your
personal data for marketing
purposes. In practice, you will
usually either expressly agree in
advance to our use of your personal
data for marketing purposes, or we
will provide you with an opportunity
to opt-out of the use of your
personal data for marketing
purposes. You can also instruct us
not to use your personal data for
marketing purposes by email (to
EMAIL) at any time. (9) Third party
