Definitions
‘Non-personal data’ (NPD) is information that isn’t personally identifiable.
‘Personal data’ (PD) means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person. PD is much like Personally Identifiable Information (PII). However, PD is broader in scope and covers more data.
A ‘visitor’ is anyone who browses our website.
A ‘member’ is someone who has registered with us to use or buy our services and / or products.
The term “user” is a collective identifier that refers to either a visitor or a member.

It is your responsibility to check the privacy notices of these websites to see how they treat your PD.
10. Protecting Children’s Privacy
Our site is not designed for use by anyone under the age of 16, but we’re aware that anyone can access our site regardless of age, and are also aware that we’re unable to control this. We do not knowingly collect PD from children under the age of 16. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child is using our website, please contact us. Before we remove any information, we may ask for proof of identification to prevent malicious removal of account information. If we discover that a child is accessing our website, we will delete his/her information within a reasonable period of time. You acknowledge that we do not verify the age of our users nor do we have any liability to do so.
11. Email Policy
You can always opt out of receiving further email correspondence from us or our affiliates. We will not sell, rent, or trade your email address to any unaffiliated third party without your permission except in the sale or transfer of our business, or if our company files for bankruptcy.
12. Security Policy
We have built our website using industry-standard security measures and authentication tools to protect the security of your PD. We and any third parties who provide services for us also maintain technical and physical safeguards to protect your PD. When we collect your credit card information through our website, we will encrypt it before it travels over the Internet using industry-standard technology for conducting secure online transactions. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee against the loss or misuse of your PD or secure data transmission over the Internet because of its nature.
As with any other website, we strongly urge you to protect any password you may have for our website and to not share it with anyone. You should always log out of our website when you finish using it, especially if you are sharing or using a computer in a public place. Always be vigilant.

You may have to provide a credit card to buy products and services from our website. We use third-party billing services and have no control over these services. We use our commercially reasonable efforts to make sure your credit card number is kept strictly confidential by using only third-party billing services that use industry-standard encryption technology to protect your credit card number from unauthorised use.
However, you understand and agree that we are in no way responsible for any misuse of your credit card number.
14. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to change our privacy policy notice at any time. If our company decides to change this privacy notice, we will post those changes on our website so that our users and customers are always aware of what information we collect, use, and disclose. If at any time we decide to disclose or use your PD in any manner different from that specified at the time it was collected, we will provide advance notice by email (sent to the email address on file in your account). Otherwise we will use and disclose our users’ and customers’ PD in agreement with the privacy notice in effect when the information was collected.
