Information we collect

We use cookies to collect information in an anonymous form about your use of the website. We will also collect information you knowingly provide to us (such as your name and email address) if you choose to register for our email newsletters or contact us through any other form on the website.

Use of cookies

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. This information is sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device and are widely used in order to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.

We use Google Analytics, social media plug-in and session ID cookies to help us:

  • Improve the speed and security of the website.
  • Understand the way our visitors use our website and improve their experience.
  • Allow visitors to share pages on social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.

We collect this information in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting this website and will not associate any data gathered from this site with any personally identifying information from any source. We will not pass the data on to advertising networks or other third parties. Any third party links to social networking services only deploy third party cookies if you have already signed up to these services and are signed into these services.

You can opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites. Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. Find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them.

Personal data

Any personal information we collect from this website will be used in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Personal data submitted on this website will be used for the purposes specified in this privacy policy or in relevant parts of the website.

We may use your personal information to:

  • Administer the website
  • Send you newsletters that you have specifically requested
  • Handle enquiries and complaints that you have made via enquiries forms

Data disclosure

We may disclose information about you to any of our employees, officers, agents, suppliers or sub-contractors as is reasonable for the purposes set out in this privacy policy. In addition, we may disclose information about you:

  • To the extent that we are required to do so by law
  • In connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings
  • In order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights (including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention and reducing credit risk).

Except as provided in this privacy policy, we will not provide your information to third parties.

Security

Keeping information about you secure is very important to us. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be totally secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information which you deliberately send to us, and you do so at your own risk.

We may update our privacy policy from time to time. We suggest that you check this page occasionally to ensure you are happy with any updates.
