Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of information that a website can send to your browser, and which is then stored on your system. Cookies are used for tracking purposes, in order to keep a record of your preferences and activity on the website. Cookies do not contain confidential information, such as your name and address or payment details, but are reminders, in data form, that you visited a particular website.
It is possible to adjust your browser so that your computer does not accept cookies, or to change your preferences such that your browser will inform you when a website tries to put a cookie on your computer. These settings will vary according to the type of Internet browser programme your computer uses. Please refer to the help section of your browser to learn more about these functions. Please bear in mind that if you disable cookies there may be certain features that you are not able to access.
Data security
The issue of data security is a very important one, and we have a series of measures in place to ensure that your information is protected against unauthorised use of any kind. In particular, all transactions are protected by secured socket layer technology and firewall technology, encrypted to a minimum of 128 bits, and for added peace of mind all areas of this website where personal information is collected are secure, as shown by the padlock symbol in your browser.
You should give the same level of protection and privacy to your username and password details as you would to other sensitive personal information, such as PIN numbers for your bank and credit cards. In particular, you should not give your online account details to anyone else that is not authorised to use your online account.
Third parties
We may supplement the information that you provide to us with information that we receive from third parties. We may also disclose your information to anti-fraud agencies, organisations who search details about you with your consent, and where required to do so by law.
Your rights You have the right to receive information about the personal data we hold about you, for which we may charge a small fee. The statutory fee is £10.00.
Privacy policy changes
Our Privacy Policy may be amended from time to time and therefore you should check this page regularly to see our most up to date policy. If necessary, we will inform you and obtain your consent about any significant changes that we may need to make to the policy.
