Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of information that is placed on a user’s computer when visiting certain websites.
We may use the following types of cookie:
Analytics cookies that anonymously remember a user’s computer or mobile device when that user visits our website. They keep track of browsing patterns and build up a profile of how our readers use the website. We might use that information to target advertisements to users on this and related company websites.
Service cookies that help us to make the website work efficiently; remember registration and login details; remember settings preferences; and meter the number of pages viewed.
Third party advertising and analytics cookies, which are placed by or on behalf of independent advertisers who are advertising on our site. These cookies may be placed within the advertisement and elsewhere on our site. They are anonymous – they do not identify individuals. They are used for statistical analysis by allowing the advertiser to count how many people have seen their advertisement or have seen it more than once. They might also allow the advertiser to tailor advertising to users when they visit other websites.
We have no access to third party cookies and third party organisations have no access to ours. The third party organisations that place cookies should have their own privacy policy.
Managing cookies
Most browser software allows the user to turn off cookies. Details should be found at a ‘help’ menu on the browser.
If you would prefer to just restrict third party cookies, visit www.youronlinechoices.com or click on the AdChoices logo that will be seen in the corner of advertisements that carry behavioural targeting cookies.
Security
Any password provided when registering with the website is encrypted to ensure protection against unauthorised access to personal information.
We invest in security and do our best to protect user privacy. No data transmission over the Internet can be entirely secure, and therefore we cannot guarantee the security of personal information and/or use of the website. Any information that you send is at your own risk and may be read by others. However once we have received your personal information we use established procedures to protect the security of personal information.
Disclosing personal information
We may disclose your personal information if we required to do so by law or in good-faith believing such action is necessary to comply with the law.
We do not sell personal information, or pass it to third parties for marketing purposes without your permission.
Where we store personal information
The personal information that we collect from you may be sent and stored outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) in order to carry out the activities listed in “Use of Your Information”.
