On some parts of the website, you may be asked to provide some limited personal information that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Information"). The Personal information may be stored manually or electronically. By supplying this information you are giving us your consent to hold and use the personal information for the purposes it was provided. Personal Information provided will be kept for as long as is necessary to fulfil that purpose.

We may also collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and to report aggregate information to our digital services function. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns which does not identify any individual and allows us to ensure that content from our site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.

We use third party analytics services to help analyze how users use The Site. These analytics services use cookies to collect information such as how often users visit The Site and We use the information to improve The Site. The analytics services ability to use and share information collected by them is restricted by their terms of use and privacy policy, which you should refer to for more information about how these entities use this information. If third party services collect information, they do so anonymously without identifying individual visitors. However, We may link the information We record using tracking technology to Personal Information we collect.

By submitting your Personal Information, you agree to this collection, process, record, analysis, and link procedure.
