PRIVACY STATEMENT

Your privacy and confidence in using our site is very important to us. Any personal information you provide to us via our site will be held in the strictest confidence, and is collected only so that we might provide products and services that are better tailored to your needs.

Collection & Use of Personal Information

Generally the personal information we collect from you depends on how you use our site. If you visit our site and read or download any information we may collect details of your domain name, server address, date and time of your visit to our site, and the pages you browsed or downloaded within our site. This information is aggregated, and used for statistical or web development purposes only.

Cookies are pieces of information that a website can transfer to a person's computer hard drive for record keeping. We use cookies like a majority of companies, but only so we can make your use of our site easier, by recording your preferences. If you do not want to receive cookies, you can adjust your internet browser to disable the function or to warn you when cookies are being used. Refer to your browser instructions or help screen for further information about these functions.

If you are subscribing to our mailing lists or asking us for information in our Contact Us section, we may need to collect personal contact details from you so that we can respond to your information request.

From time to time, we may also ask for details that help us to identify your preferences with regards our website, products, competitions and promotions, or we may record site usage patterns so we can identify areas of our site that are popular, and those that are not.

Use of Personal Information

We only collect information about you that we need to process your application, to service your accounts and other needs, to offer new products and services, and to satisfy legal requirements. We may also use this information for purposes such as correspondence, site registration, allowing you to check your statement or other account details online (if available) to make a purchase, or to participate in online surveys etc.

We will not collect any personal information from you that is discriminatory, racial or ethnic in origin, reflects your religious or philosophical beliefs, contains details of health, disability or sexual preferences or activity. The only exceptions to this would include where you give us express permission to do so, or where the information is authorised by law or necessary for a legal claim.

We will not sell, reveal, disclose, distribute, rent, license or pass your personal information to any third party, other than those that are contracted to Construction Skills Training Centre to keep the information confidential, or are bound by similar restrictions to those in our privacy policy regarding the handling of your personal information.Other Disclosure of Information

Except as set out in this Privacy statement, we will not disclose your personal information unless you have previously informed us or have authorised us to do so, or if we must do so by law. If a court or government authority orders us to disclose any of your personal information, we will use our reasonable endeavours to notify you of this promptly, to give you an opportunity to exercise your legal rights unless order or law prohibits us from notifying you or when there is suspicion of fraud or criminal activity.

Security of Your Information

We will take all reasonable endeavours to ensure that any information collected, used or disclosed is accurate, up to date and stored in a secure environment. Unfortunately though, no data transmission is 100% safe over the Internet, so we cannot guarantee 100% security of any information you send or receive from us. It is recommended that you do not send sensitive or important information, such as credit card details through unsecured e-mail.

Gaining Access or Updating or Correcting Your Information

Should you request it, we will provide you with access to any information we have collected from you through this website. We will also update your information if you let us know that it is inaccurate or non-current.

How Long Do We Keep Information

We will keep information for as long as it is necessary to service your account or to continue to provide products and services you have requested. We will retain information for a reasonable period if you cease to be our customer, unless the law requires us to keep it for longer.

Children Using the Site

We do not knowingly solicit information from or market to children or young persons under the age of 18. Whilst we take all reasonable efforts to ensure the security and privacy of children and young persons, we cannot guarantee these won't be compromised, and so request that all children under the age of 18 years have a parent or guardian verify any membership application, use of, or purchases from our site.
