When You Provide Information

The type of information we collect from you will depend on what products and services you use on the website.

Certain information is fundamental in order for us to meet a requested business transaction and/or relationship with clients.  So you provide us with personal details i.e.. your name and address, e-mail address and contact phone number so that we may fulfil our business requirements and/or contact you when necessary on issues relating directly to the product. This practice is consistent with normal business policies/practices.

We will only use your personal information for purposes related to the products or services we provide to you or for any purpose you might reasonably expect for the information. It is your decision whether you wish to engage in a business relationship with us. We are required to inform you that we may release information about you in the following circumstances: where there is a duty to the public to disclose that information, where we are required by law or where our interests are threatened.  However, we will never sell or disclose your information to any individual or entity for marketing purposes without your express consent.

If you are a registered member for our online services, we may use your e-mail address to advise you of any news, upgrades or changes to our services.  It is our policy to only email customers who give us permission to do so. If we send you an email for a commercial purpose, we will give you the option of not receiving further communications of this nature.

Security of Captured Data

Additionally, all stored customer information is protected from unauthorised access through the use of secure passwords and user logons or other security procedures.

Are Cookies Used on the Site?

Cookies are used for a variety of reasons. We use Cookies to obtain information about the preferences of our Visitors and the services they select. We also use Cookies for security purposes to protect our Authorised Customers. For example, if an Authorised Customer is logged on and the site is unused for more than 10 minutes, we will automatically log the Authorised Customer off.

How can Visitors correct any inaccuracies in Personally Identifiable Information?

Can a Visitor delete or deactivate Personally Identifiable Information collected by the Site?

We provide Visitors and Authorised Customers with a mechanism to delete/deactivate Personally Identifiable Information from the Site’s database by contacting ‘contact us‘.

What happens if the Privacy Policy Changes?

We will let our Visitors and Authorised Customers know about changes to our privacy policy by posting such changes on the Site.
