1. Introduction
eThesis takes your privacy
seriously. This privacy policy describes how and why we obtain, store
and process data which can identify you. We may update this policy
from time to time and shall indicate on the web site when changes have
been made.
2. The Information we collect
Information is collected from you when you register with us, or
when you contribute to or use some of the advanced features on
the site.
The information we collect is clearly set out on the web page on
which we collect it. See for example our registration page and
order form.
In addition, we may collect your IP address and use cookies unless
you configure your web browser not to accept them.
3. Why we collect
it
We collect information about you so that we can personalise your
use of the site, assist your use of the site and improve the site
generally.
Depending upon your selections for our data protection questions
we may arrange for you to be sent information about related products
and
services from us and carefully selected third parties (see section
4). You may update the answers to your questions at any time.
4. Who
we disclose it to
4.1 We will only pass on information about you as an individual
(as opposed to aggregate information) to third parties to enable
us to
perform services requested by you or with your prior consent.
4.2 If you give your consent, we will pass your contact details to
third parties who may then occasionally send communications to you
to provide information, offers and services that may be of interest
to you.
4.3 In certain circumstances we may need to disclose information
about you if you breach this privacy policy or if you breach the
Terms and
Conditions. We may also disclose or access your account if required
to do so by law or by any Governmental body.
4.4 We will only pass on information about you as an individual (as
opposed to aggregate information) to third parties overseas to enable
us to perform services requested by you.
5. Security
Keeping information about you secure is very important to us and
certain sections of the site may encrypt data using SSL or a comparable
standard.
However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed
to be totally secure. As a result, whilst we strive to protect
your personal
information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information
which you send to us, and you do so at your own risk.
6. Automated
decisions
Parts of www.ethesis.co.uk and our billing process (which is transacted
via Protx) are automatic and we may process your
personal data as part of www.ethesis.co.uk and the billing process.
7.
Accessing and updating your personal information
We will always let you have a copy of personal information we
have about you, should you request it, and you may correct
it if you
wish. Instructions about
how to do this are available from data@ethesis.co.uk.
8. Questions?
If you have any questions or complaints relating to this Privacy
Policy or how we use the personal information we have about you,
