1. Information we collect

The personal information we collect falls into three categories: contact details, click trails and activity history.

Contact details are collected as supplied by you from time to time.

Click trails record the paths taken by visitors through the website. This information is generally recorded against IP address, and may be possible to correlate by computer.

Activity History includes enquiries via the website, or offline contact you have with us such as phone calls.

2. How we collect it

  • The type of browser you are using

  • The date and time of your visit

  • Your IP address

  • The address of the website that referred you to ours

  • The addresses of pages accessed and any documents downloaded

Click trails can be correlated over time by the use of ‘cookies’ as outlined in section 5. In most cases click trail data is not directly individually identifiable.

Activity history is recorded whenever you undertake an activity such as submit an enquiry, make a comment, and may additionally be recorded by us when you contact us offline.
