Privacy Policy

THE BETTER PEOPLE ORGANISATION LIMITED ("WE") IS COMMITTED TO PROTECTING AND RESPECTING YOUR PRIVACY AND TO SAFEGUARDING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. WE WANT YOUR EXPERIENCE OF OUR SERVICES TO BE SAFE AND ENJOYABLE. THIS MEANS THAT WE MAY NEED TO COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM YOU, AND YOU MAY WISH TO CONTRIBUTE PERSONAL INFORMATION TO US.

This policy together with our terms of use sets out the basis on which any personal information we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal information and how we will treat it.

For the purpose of the Data Protection Act 1998 (the "Act"), the data controller is The Better People Organisation Limited, 71 Stamford Road, Bowdon WA14 2JJ.

Our nominated representative for the purpose of the Act is The Data Protection Controller and you may contact them using the general enquiry form.

Information we may collect about you

When you visit our Websites, register or provide information by completing a form, we request that you provide Personal Information about yourself, and we also collect Navigational Information.

We may collect and process the following information about you:

Information that you provide by filling in forms. This includes information provided at the time of registering to use our Sites, subscribing to any of our services (such as newsletters, blogs, live chats, downloads and forums), posting material or requesting further services. We may also ask you for information when you enter a competition or promotion, and when you report a problem with any of our Sites. This can include, but is not limited to, information such as your name, email address, postal address, telephone or mobile number or date of birth, depending on the activity.

If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence.

We may also ask you to complete surveys that we use for research purposes, although you do not have to respond to them.

We may keep any transactions and interactions you carry out through our Sites and of the fulfilment of any orders for products or services.

We may store visits to our Sites including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data and the resources that you access.

We use Navigational Information to operate and improve our Websites. We may also use Navigational Information alone or in combination with Personal Information to provide you with personalised information.

IP Addresses

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 or partners. This is statistical data about our users' browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.

Cookies

Our websites use cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a personalised experience when you browse any of our websites and also allows us to improve our sites. For detailed information on the cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them see our Cookie Policy at the bottom of this page.

Third Party Tracking Technologies

The use of cookies and web beacons by any tracking utility company is not covered by our privacy policy. We do not have access or control over these third party tracking technologies

Clear Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs)

We employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage our Website and email services by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages or in emails and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. We tie the information gathered by clear gifs in emails to our customers' Personal Information.

Where we store your personal information

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 provision of support services. By submitting your personal information, 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.

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 the data you transmit to our Sites. Any transmission is therefore at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

Uses made of the information

We use information held about you in the following ways:

• To ensure that content from our Sites is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.
