Privacy

 

This policy sets out information about the gathering and use of personal data supplied by clients and users of this website. It should be read in conjunction with the terms and conditions also available on this site.

 

Personally provided information

 

Any personal data supplied is only used for the purpose of supplying services or the identification of people where consent has been obtained. Personal data will not be passed on to third parties and will remain confidential, unless explicitly stated.

 

Elements of the site and access to some galleries and images are protected by password and/or supply of a unique url to a client. Whilst every care is taken to protect these areas of the site and the means of access, no liability is accepted where a client shares any password or url with a third party or supplies any contact information, such as an email address, which, if used, might lead to that information being available to a third party.

 

When subscribing for paid Services or placing e-commerce orders your name, billing address, telephone number, billing and credit card information, shipping addresses, and payment preferences will be collected. This information is collected using direct user input and cookies.

 

IP addresses may also be recorded for administration and demographic purposes, but IP addresses are not linked to your computer's user ID.

 

To ensure effective management of services and to comply with legal requirements, personal data are retained as long as is reasonably necessary. A client may at any time request removal of personal information and this will be done where practicable and in accordance with any terms and conditions accepted by the client.
