2. Visitor Information
During the course of any visit to Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com),
the pages you see, along with a short text file called a
'cookie', are downloaded to your computer. Many websites do
this, because cookies enable website publishers to do useful
things like find out whether the computer (and probably its
user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat
visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on
the last visit.
Information supplied by cookies can help us to provide you with
a better online user experience and assist us to analyse the
profile of our visitors.
3. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an
anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a
website's computer and stored on your computer's hard drive.
Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your
browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy)
your browser only permits a web site to access the cookies it
has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other
sites.
Many sites do this whenever a user visits their website in order
to track online traffic flows.
Cookies record information about your online preferences. Users
have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all
cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to
receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means
that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to
that user user and accordingly you may not be able to take full
advantage of all of the Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com)
features. Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of
your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
If you have set your computer to reject cookies you can still
browse Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) anonymously until
such time as you wish to register for Informal IVA Regulation
Body (IVA.com) services. For further information on cookies
please visit http://www.aboutcookies.org.
4. Use and storage of your personal information
When you supply any personal information to Informal IVA
Regulation Body (IVA.com) (e.g. for submitting IVA reviews,
Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) Community services or
Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) membership) we have legal
obligations towards you in the way we use those data. We must
collect the information fairly, that is, we must explain how we
will use it and tell you if we want to pass the information on
to anyone else.
In general, any information you provide to the Informal IVA
Regulation Body (IVA.com) will only be used within the Informal
IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) and by its agents and service
providers. Your information will be disclosed where we are
obliged or permitted by law. Also, if you post or send
offensive, inappropriate or objectionable content anywhere on or
to Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) or otherwise engage in
any disruptive behaviour on Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com),
the Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) can use whatever
information that is available to it about you to stop such
behaviour. This may involve informing relevant third parties
such as your employer, e-mail/Internet provider and law
enforcement agencies about the content and your behaviour.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as
long as you use the service you have requested, and remove it
when requested, or, in the case of Informal IVA Regulation Body
(IVA.com) membership you no longer wish to continue your
registration as a Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) member.
For safety reasons, however, the Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com)
may store messaging transcript data (including message content,
member names, times and dates) arising from the use of Informal
IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) Community services. Where personal
information is held for people who are not yet registered but
have taken part in other Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com)
services (e.g. submitting IVA reviews), that information will be
held as long as is necessary to ensure that the service is run
smoothly. We will ensure that all personal information supplied
is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act
1998.
If you are notified on a Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com)
site that your information may be used to allow the Informal IVA
Regulation Body (IVA.com) to contact you for "service
administration purposes", this means that the Informal IVA
Regulation Body (IVA.com) may contact you for a number of
purposes related to the service you have signed up for. For
example, we may wish to provide you with password reminders or
notify you that the particular service has been suspended for
maintenance. We will not contact you for promotional purposes,
such as notifying you of improvements to the service or new
services on Informal IVA Regulation Body (IVA.com) unless you
specifically agree to be contacted for such purposes at the time
you submit your information on the site, or at a later time if
you sign up specifically to receive such promotional
information.
