This privacy policy describes what personal data we collect from this website's visitors, how and when we collect it, how and why we use it, and other important details about our privacy practices.
What personal information do we collect from the people who visit our website?
When using a contact form or newsletter subscription form on our website, you may be asked to enter your name, email address, phone number or other details.
When do we collect personal information?
We collect personal information from you when you complete and send a contact form, comment form or newsletter subscription form on our website. You may, however, visit our site anonymously.
Information we process because we have a contractual obligation with you
When you enter information in a contact form, comment form or newsletter subscription form, or otherwise agree to our terms and conditions, a contract is formed between you and us. In order to carry out our obligations under that contract we must process the information you give us. Some of this information may be personal information.
The information we collect from you may be used in one of the following ways:
We use the information you provide on a contact form or order form to reply to you individually (by telephone, text message, email or other means).
We use the information you provide on a comment form as described below.
We use the information you provide when you subscribe to a newsletter to send you occasional email newsletters. If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future email newsletters, you can follow the instructions at the bottom of each email and we will promptly remove you from all correspondence.
We shall continue to process this information until the contract between us ends or is terminated by either party under the terms of the contract.
Information we process with your consent
When you enter information in a contact form, comment form or newsletter subscription form on our website, you provide your consent to us to process information that may be personal information. Wherever possible, we aim to obtain your explicit consent to process this information, for example, by asking you to certify that you have read this privacy policy. Sometimes you might give your consent implicitly, such as when you send us a message by email to which you would reasonably expect us to reply.
Except where you have consented to our use of your information for a specific purpose, we do not use your information in any way that would identify you personally. We may aggregate it in a general way and use it to provide class information, for example to monitor the performance of a particular page on our website.
We continue to process your information on this basis until you withdraw your consent or it can be reasonably assumed that your consent no longer exists.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us using the contact form on the Contact page. However, if you do so, you may not be able to use our website or our services further.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
Your name (or other text you enter in the Name field on the form) will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
In addition, an anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your Gravatar profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.
The comment form also collects your email address (required) and website URL (optional) so that we may contact you and/or learn more about the people who comment on this website. This information will only be accessible to us, and neither your email address nor your website URL will be visible to the public. We do not share your email address or website URL with others.
Submitted comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service, which operates under the privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.
Information we process for the purposes of legitimate interests
We may process information on the basis there is a legitimate interest, either to you or to us, of doing so. Where we process your information on this basis, we do after having given careful consideration to:
- whether the same objective could be achieved through other means
- whether processing (or not processing) might cause you harm
- whether you would expect us to process your data, and whether you would consider it reasonable to do so
For example, we may process your data on this basis for the purposes of:
- communicating with you via email
- responding to unsolicited communication from you to which we believe you would expect a response
- record-keeping for the proper and necessary administration of the site
- protecting and asserting the legal rights of any party
- insuring against or obtaining professional advice that is required to manage the Company's risk
- protecting your interests where we believe we have a duty to do so
Information we process because we have a legal obligation
We are subject to the law like everyone else. Sometimes, we must process your information in order to comply with a statutory obligation. For example, we may be required to give information to legal authorities if they so request or if they have the proper authorization such as a search warrant or court order. This may include your personal information.
How do we protect your information?
Our website is scanned on a regular basis for security holes and known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our site as safe as possible. We also use regular malware scanning.
Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. In addition, all sensitive information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.
