We may collect information
about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating
system and browser type, for system administration and to report aggregate
information to our advertisers (if any). This is statistical data about our
users' browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.
For the same reason, we
may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie
file which is stored on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain
information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive. They help us
to improve our site and to deliver a better and more personalised service.
They enable us:
·
To estimate our audience size and usage pattern.

To store information about your preferences, and so allow us to customise
our site according to your individual interests.
·
To speed up your searches.
·
To recognise you when you return to our site.
You may refuse to accept
cookies by activating the setting on your browser which allows you to refuse
the setting of cookies. However, if you select this setting you may be
unable to access certain parts of our site. Unless you have adjusted your
browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue
cookies when you log on to our site.
Where we store your
personal data
The data that we collect
from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the
European Economic Area ("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff operating
outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. Such staff
maybe engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the
processing of your payment details and the provision of support services. By
submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or
processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your
data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
All information you
provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Any payment transactions will
be encrypted. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password
which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible
for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password
with anyone.
Unfortunately, the
transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure.
Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot
guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any
transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we
will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent
unauthorised access.

us or which we feel may interest you, where you have consented to be
contacted for such purposes.
·
To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into between
you and us.

To allow you to participate in interactive features of our service, when you
choose to do so.
·
To notify you about changes to our service.

to provide you with information about goods and services which may be of
