5.1 The Site will shortly start using cookies to ensure that you get the most out of the Site. 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.
5.2 Therefore, we may send a cookie which may be stored by your browser on your computer’s hard drive. We may use the information we obtain from the cookie in the administration of the Site, to improve the Site’s usability and for marketing purposes. We may also use that information to recognise your computer when you visit the Site, to monitor website traffic and to personalise the Site for you.
5.3 If you do not wish us to install cookies on your computer for these purposes, you may change the settings on your internet browser to reject cookies. For more information, please consult the ‘Help’ section of your browser.
5.4 As mentioned above, we may use an analytics service provider for website traffic analysis and reporting. Analytics service providers generate statistical and other information about website use by means of cookies, which are stored on users’ computers. The information generated relating to the Site may be used to create reports about the use of the Site and the analytics service provider will store this information.
- Third Party Sites
6.1 The Site may contain links to websites that are operated by third parties, such as our sponsors. We do not control those websites and as such this Privacy Policy does not apply to those websites. Please consult the terms and conditions and privacy policy of those third-party websites to find out how they collect and use your personal data and to establish whether and for what purpose they use cookies.
- Security and Data Retention
7.1 We employ security measures to protect your information from access by unauthorised persons and against unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage. We will retain your information, including your name, address, email and phone number (if provided) on our electronic records for a reasonable lawful period, or until you ask us to remove it. - International Data Transfers
8.1 Our servers are situated in the UK; however, we collect data from wherever users are situated. The information that we collect may therefore be transferred to the UK from any other country in which you may be located and will be subject to UK data protection laws rather than the laws of the country in which you are resident. - Your Rights
