Privacy policy

We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors; this policy sets out how we will treat your personal information.

 

(1) What information do we collect?
We may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal data:

• (a) information about your computer and about your visits to and use of this website (including your IP address, geographical location, browser type, referral source, length of visit and number of page views);
• (b) information that you provide to us for the purpose of registering with us (including your name, email address and date of birth);
• (c) information that you provide for the purposes of completing and maintaining your profile on our website (which may include your gender, home town/city, country, interests, address, telephone number, mobile phone number; details of your interests, education, work and other information about your life; details of your sporting interests, achievements and favorites; and any images you choose to upload);

(2) Cookies
A cookie consists of information sent by a web server to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The information is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser.

We use both “session” and “persistent” cookies on the website. We will use the session cookies to keep track of you while you navigate the website. We will use the persistent cookies to recognize registered users when they return to the website.

Session cookies will be deleted from your computer when you close your browser. Persistent cookies will remain upon your computer until their expiry date or until they are deleted.

We use analytics software to analyze the use of this website. The information generated relating to our website is used to create reports about the use of the website.

Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies. (For example, in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookies by clicking “Tools”, “Internet Options”, “Privacy”, and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector.) This will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites, including this one.

• (g) provide third parties with statistical information about our users — but this information will not be used to identify any individual user; and
• (h) deal with enquiries and complaints made by or about you relating to the website.

Where you submit personal information for publication on our website, we will publish and otherwise use that information in accordance with the license you grant to us. We will not without your express consent provide your personal information to any third parties for the purpose of direct marketing.
