a) What information we may collect
If you wish us to contact you we will ask for information from
you. This information may include personal information about you
such as your name, e-mail address, postal address and telephone
number.
We also use cookies on the Site and collect IP addresses (a number
that can identify a computer or device on the internet). We use
analysis software to look at IP addresses and cookies for the
purpose of managing your access to the Site and may use cookies to
enhance your user experience. This information is not used to
develop a personal profile of you.
b) How will information we collect be used?
We will use your personal information for a number of purposes
including:
- When you ask us to contact you, we will use the personal information you provide to identify you and enable us to contact you.
- Cookies, to help us administer the Site by:
- Regulating access to certain areas of the Site
- Monitoring usage; and
- Personalising content.
- IP addresses may be used to identify the location of users, to block disruptive use and to analyse and improve the Site.
We may allow other people and organisations to use information
we hold about you. We will do this if such third parties are
providing services to us or on our behalf (for example
administering the Site for us) or if we have been asked to provide
information for legal or regulatory purposes or as part of legal
proceedings or prospective legal proceedings.
From time to time, these other people and organisations may be
outside the European Economic Area in countries that do not have
the same standards of protection for personal data as the UK.

you?
We will only contact you if you have asked us to do so.
d) How offensive or inappropriate content will be dealt
with
If you post or send offensive, inappropriate or objectionable
content anywhere on or to the Site or otherwise engage in any
disruptive behaviour on the Site we may use your personal
information to stop such behaviour.
Where we reasonably believe that you are or may be in breach of
any of the laws of England or Wales we may use your personal
information to inform relevant third parties.
e) Further information on the use of cookies on the
Sites
During your use of the Site cookies may be downloaded to your
device.
e.i) What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique
identifier that is sent to your computer from a website's computer
and is stored on your computer's hard drive. Each website can send
its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow
it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a
website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the
cookies sent to you by other sites. Many sites do this whenever a
user visits their website in order to track online traffic
flows.
Cookies record information about your online preferences and allow
us to tailor the Site to you. You have the opportunity to set your
devices to accept all cookies, to notify you when a cookie is
issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. If you do the latter
it may mean that certain services cannot then be provided or that
you cannot access certain elements of the Site that you would
otherwise be able to.
Each browser is different and if you want to change your cookie
preference you should look at the "help" function on your
browser.
e.ii) How do we use cookies?
We use cookies to:
- Regulate access to certain areas of the Site;
- Monitor usage; and
- Personalise content.
We do not provide details to other companies for their own
business but we may provide information to third parties who are
providing services to us or on our behalf.
