Cookies
How we use cookies on our
site and what information we collect.
A cookie is a text-only string of
information that a web site transfers to the cookie folder of the browser on
your computer's hard disk so that the web site can remember who you are. Two
types of cookies are used on this web site:
Session
Cookies
These are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of
your browser until you leave the site. Due to the volume of traffic on our web
sites, we use them to speed up the delivery of content to you, the user and to
remember your preferences whenever you are logged in. No personal or
identifying information is held in these cookies. As soon as you leave our
sites or close your browser, they are automatically deleted from your
computer.
Persistent Cookies
These are cookies which remain in
the cookie file of your browser for a much longer period, though how long will
depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie. We currently set 2 persistent
cookies to manage the number of times a day you will see one of our
subscription pop-up ads.
Again, no personal or identifying information is
held in these cookies. You have the ability to accept or decline these cookies
by modifying the settings in your browser. However, if you do disable these
cookies, you may be served a pop-up ad on every page you visit rather than our
current frequency which is set at just once a day for both the entry and exit
pop-ups.
Statistical information
Aggregate
statistical information provided by us to our advertisers or others regarding
sales or web site usage will not include personally identifying information.
Security
Your
personal data will be held on our secure server located in our data centre. Our
site is equipped with the latest security devices/firewalls.
Access to Data
You have
certain rights under the Data Protection Acts 1984 and 1988. You have the right
to be told what personal information we hold about you on our databases. For
such information, please write to us stating your full name, your address and
all services from us to which you know you subscribe. A small administrative
charge will be made for fulfilling this request.
