1. What information do we collect?
When you enter this website, we collect your browser information (which typically includes browser type, version, host operating system and browser language) and IP address. This information is gathered for all visitors. In general, you can browse this website without giving us any additional information. However, to enjoy the benefits of a number of the services offered on this website, they can only be made available if we have certain information about you. To access these services, you will, from time to time, be asked to submit personal information about yourself. In order to provide you with an account that allows you to store your preferences and which includes other benefits and conveniences of our service, we need to collect information from you when you register such as your screen name and password, date of birth, email address, mobile phone information, location (by country).
2. Information on visitors
During the course of any visit, the pages you see, along with something called a “cookie”, is downloaded to your computer. Most websites do this, because cookies allow the website publisher to ascertain whether the computer (and probably its user) has visited the site before. Any information that is supplied by cookies can help us to provide you with a better service and assists us to analyse the profile of our visitors. They make it easier for you to maintain your preferences, and by seeing how you use the site; we can tailor our website around your preferences. For example: if on a previous visit you went to a certain section, then we might find this out from your cookie and highlight similar items that might interest you on your next visit.
3. More information about cookies
The purpose of cookies used as been previously explained above in this Privacy Policy. When you enter a site that utilises “cookies” your computer will automatically be issued with a cookie, provided your internet browser is set to accept them (most are by default). Cookies are text files that identify your computer to our server. Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual user, just the computer used. Cookies themselves only record those areas of the site that have been visited by the computer in question, and for how long. Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site. You can, should you chose, disable the cookies from your browser and delete all cookies currently stored on your computer. This may, however, prevent you from taking full advantage of the services that this website has to offer. For example, if you are using Internet Explorer, this can be done by selecting “Tools / Internet Options” and then reviewing your privacy settings or selecting “delete cookies”.
More information can be obtained on cookies by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org/manage-cookies/index.html which is run by the Interactive Advertising Bureau.
4. Use and storage of your personal information
When you supply any personal information to us we may have legal obligations towards you based upon privacy laws and regulations in the way we deal with that data. We will collect the information fairly, that is, we will explain how we will use it and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else.
The information you provide to us will be used for the following reasons:
- to ensure that content from our site is presented to you in the most effective manner and to personalise your visit to our site;
- to enable us to continuously enhance the site’s service, to serve advertising, and to provide to you information, products or services which we feel may be of interest to you;
- to occasionally carry out market research including internal analytical research which will enable us to constantly improve your experience;
- to carry out our obligations arising from any agreements that may have been entered into between you and us;
- to allow you to participate in interactive features of our service, when you choose to do so; and
- to notify you about changes to or other information about our service.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you use the service(s) you have requested, and remove it in the event that the purpose has been met, or, in the case of you no longer wish to continue your status as a site member. In some circumstances it may be necessary to retain your personal information to deal with any disputes. Accordingly, we may store messaging transcript data (including message content, member names, times and dates) arising from the use of the site for a period necessary to fulfil such purpose. Where personal information is held for people who are not yet registered but have taken part in other site services, that information will be held only as long as necessary to ensure that the service is run smoothly. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
Your personal data will be stored on our backup system, which is kept in case of loss of data. It may be that where data is lost, the personal data held on you as part of our backup system is used to restore your account to its status before the loss of data. All personal data (including communication data) stored on the backup system shall be held in accordance with the Data Retention Directive.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Athough we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access. We may contact you for a number of purposes related to the service you have signed up for. For example, we may wish to provide you with password reminders or notify you that a particular service has been improved or suspended.
