WHAT ARE COOKIES? WHY DO WE USE THEM?
Cookies are small files stored by your browser in your computer when you
visit our Site. We use cookies to improve our Site and to make it easier
to use. Cookies permit us to recognise users and avoid repetitive requests
for the same information. We mainly use "session cookies" that are automatically
deleted after each visit. Cookies from our Site cannot be read by other
sites. Most browsers will accept cookies until you change your browser
settings to refuse them.
HOW DO WE PROTECT INFORMATION WE COLLECT?
We offer secure web pages to collect certain kinds of user information
and we store certain kinds of data in encrypted form. We follow reasonable
technical and management practices to help protect the confidentiality,
security and integrity of data stored on our system. While no computer
system is completely secure, we believe the measures implemented by our
Site reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate
to the type of data involved.
HOW LONG DO WE KEEP USER INFORMATION?
We keep user data on our server or in our archives for as long as we reasonably
need it, although we may alter this practice according to changing requirements.
For example, we may delete some data if needed to free up storage space.
We may keep other data for longer periods should the law require it.
Data management requests are administered in an orderly manner to the extent feasible and within our direct control. Note: we have greater control over recently collected data than for archived data. Once data is removed from the system and archived, it may not be feasible to accommodate specific requests. In those cases, our general data retention policy applies.
LEGAL NOTICE
This Site operates on an "AS-IS" and "AS-AVAILABLE" basis, without liability
of any kind. We are not responsible for events beyond our direct control.
This Policy is governed by the laws of the United Kingdom.
