How we hold personal information


We hold personal information in paper form and electronic form. We have in place steps to protect the information we hold from misuse, interference and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

Cookies and other website related information


A cookie is a data file that a website transfers to your computer. This enables the website to track the pages you have visited. A cookie only contains information you supply. It cannot read data on your computer. The System may use cookies. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, however, this may mean you are unable to take full advantage of the System.


Our internet server may also automatically record details about any computer used to access the website (such as the IP address, domain name and browser type), the date and time of access, and details of the information downloaded. This information is used for internal statistical purposes and to improve the System. Any other information supplied to us (for example if you send us an email) is treated in accordance with this privacy policy.


Links to external websites


The System may contain hyperlinks to third party websites. This privacy policy does not apply to those websites. We suggest that you consider the privacy policies set out on any website that you access after following a link from the System.


Information about others


Before uploading personal information about another person to the System, or otherwise providing personal information to us, you must obtain that person’s consent to do so. If that person is under the age of 15 years, you must obtain the consent of that person’s parent or guardian. Unless we are notified otherwise, we will assume that all information about another person that you upload to the System, or otherwise provide to us, has been uploaded or provided to us with that person’s consent or, where that person is under the age of 15 years, the consent of that person’s parent or guardian.


Information about children


If we become aware that we have obtained information about a person under the age of 15 without the consent of a parent or guardian of that person, we will remove that information from the System and destroy all records of the information that we hold. If you believe that information about a person under the age of 15 years is available on the System, or that we otherwise hold such information, without the consent of a parent or guardian of that person, you can notify us using the contact details section of this document set out below.


Variation of policy


We reserve the right to change this privacy policy from time to time to take account of new laws and technology, changes to our functions and activities and to make sure it remains appropriate. The updated policy will be available on our website.
