Our web­site and some of our appli­ca­tions or ser­vices or parts of them may also be host­ed in the Unit­ed States or oth­er­wise out­side of the EEA (which means all the EU coun­tries plus Nor­way, Ice­land and Liecht­en­stein) (“EEA”) and this means that we may trans­fer any infor­ma­tion which is sub­mit­ted by you through the web­site or the appli­ca­tion or ser­vice out­side the EEA to the Unit­ed States or to oth­er ter­ri­to­ries out­side of the EEA.

We may use ser­vice providers based out­side of the EEA to help us pro­vide our web­site, appli­ca­tions and ser­vices to you (for exam­ple, plat­form and pay­ment providers who help us deliv­er our appli­ca­tions and ser­vices, or adver­tis­ing or exe­cute your pay­ments) and this means that we may trans­fer your infor­ma­tion to ser­vice providers out­side the EEA for the pur­pose of pro­vid­ing our appli­ca­tions, adver­tis­ing and ser­vices to you. 

We take steps to ensure that where our ser­vice providers and host­ing providers trans­fer your infor­ma­tion out­side of the EEA, appro­pri­ate mea­sures and con­trols are in place to pro­tect that infor­ma­tion in accor­dance with applic­a­ble data pro­tec­tion laws and reg­u­la­tions.

Those social media sites may auto­mat­i­cal­ly pro­vide us with access to cer­tain per­son­al infor­ma­tion retained by them about you (for exam­ple any con­tent you have viewed).

These are cook­ies which are need­ed for our web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices to func­tion prop­er­ly, for exam­ple, these cook­ies allow you to access secure areas of our web­site or to remem­ber what you have put into your shop­ping basket.

Per­for­mance cook­ies and ana­lyt­ics technologies

These cook­ies col­lect infor­ma­tion about how vis­i­tors and users use our web­sites, appli­ca­tions and ser­vices, for instance which func­tion­al­i­ty vis­i­tors use most often, and if they get error mes­sages from areas of the web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices. These cook­ies don’t col­lect infor­ma­tion that iden­ti­fies a vis­i­tor or user. All infor­ma­tion these cook­ies col­lect is aggre­gat­ed and there­fore anony­mous. We only use these cook­ies to improve how our web­site, appli­ca­tions and ser­vices work.

Func­tion­al­i­ty cookies

These cook­ies allow our web­sites, appli­ca­tions and ser­vices to remem­ber choic­es you make (such as your user name, lan­guage or the region you are in) and pro­vide enhanced, more per­son­al fea­tures. These cook­ies can also be used to remem­ber changes you have made to text size, fonts and oth­er parts of web pages that you can cus­tomise. They may also be used to pro­vide ser­vices you have asked for. The infor­ma­tion these cook­ies col­lect may be anonymised and they can­not track your brows­ing activ­i­ty on oth­er websites.

Tar­get­ing or adver­tis­ing cookies

These cook­ies are used to deliv­er adverts more rel­e­vant to you and your inter­ests. They are also used to lim­it the num­ber of times you see an adver­tise­ment as well as help mea­sure the effec­tive­ness of the adver­tis­ing cam­paign. They are usu­al­ly placed by adver­tis­ing net­works with the web­site oper­a­tors’ per­mis­sion. They remem­ber that you have vis­it­ed a web­site and this infor­ma­tion is shared with oth­er organ­i­sa­tions such as adver­tis­ers. Quite often tar­get­ing or adver­tis­ing cook­ies will be linked to site func­tion­al­i­ty pro­vid­ed by the oth­er organisation.

Web bea­cons and para­me­ter track­ing 

We also use cook­ies and sim­i­lar soft­ware known as web bea­cons to count users who have vis­it­ed our web­site after click­ing through from one of our adver­tise­ments on anoth­er web­site or in emails and to col­lect details of any prod­ucts or ser­vices pur­chased. These web bea­cons col­lect lim­it­ed infor­ma­tion that does not iden­ti­fy par­tic­u­lar indi­vid­u­als. It is not pos­si­ble to refuse the use of web bea­cons. How­ev­er, because they are used in con­junc­tion with cook­ies, you can effec­tive­ly dis­able them by set­ting your brows­er to restrict or block cookies. 

IP Address and traf­fic data

We keep a record of traf­fic data which is logged auto­mat­i­cal­ly by our servers, such as your Inter­net Pro­to­col (IP) address, device infor­ma­tion, the web­site that you vis­it­ed before ours and the web­site you vis­it after leav­ing our site. We also col­lect some site, appli­ca­tion and ser­vice sta­tis­tics such as access rates, page hits and page views. We are not able to iden­ti­fy any indi­vid­ual from traf­fic data or site statistics.

Descrip­tion	Pur­pose
Google Ana­lyt­ics	Google Ana­lyt­ics uses “cook­ies”, to help the web­site analyse how users use the web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices. The infor­ma­tion gen­er­at­ed by the cook­ie about your use of the web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices (includ­ing your IP address) will be trans­mit­ted to and stored by Google on servers in the Unit­ed States. Google will use this infor­ma­tion for the pur­pose of eval­u­at­ing your use of the web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices com­pil­ing reports on web­site activ­i­ty for web­site oper­a­tors and pro­vid­ing oth­er ser­vices relat­ing to web­site activ­i­ty and inter­net usage. Google may also trans­fer this infor­ma­tion to third par­ties where required to do so by law, or where such third par­ties process the infor­ma­tion on Google’s behalf. Google will not asso­ciate your IP address with any oth­er data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cook­ies by select­ing the appro­pri­ate set­tings on your brows­er or with­in the appli­ca­tion, how­ev­er please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full func­tion­al­i­ty of this web­site. By using our web­sites, appli­ca­tions or ser­vices you con­sent to the pro­cess­ing of data about you by Google in the man­ner and for the pur­pos­es set out above.

Salesforce.com	Salesforce.com uses the Salesforce.com plat­form. You can view Salesforce.com’s pri­va­cy state­ments here that con­tain details of any cook­ies and ana­lyt­ics that are used with­in its plat­form and ser­vices: http://www.salesforce.com/company/privacy/full_privacy.jsp. No ser­vice user data is main­tained on the Sales­force web or appli­ca­tion servers. Instead, after the user authen­ti­cates, the appli­ca­tion gen­er­ates a “cook­ie” for that user for only that ses­sion, with the fol­low­ing infor­ma­tion: a ver­sion num­ber that iden­ti­fies the for­mat of the cook­ie, a num­ber that acts as the ses­sion ID and a rout­ing hint.”
