Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
Open Communication Design Limited (“Open”) takes your privacy
seriously. This privacy policy describes how and why we obtain, store
and process data which can identify you. We may update this policy from
time to time and shall indicate on the web site when changes have been
made.
2. The Information we collect
Information is collected from you when you register with us, or when
you contribute to or use some of the advanced features on the site. The
information we collect is clearly set out on the web page on which we
collect it. See for example our contact page. In addition, we may
collect your IP address and use cookies unless you configure your web
browser not to accept them.
3. Why we collect it
We collect information about you so that we can personalise your use
of the site, assist your use of the site and improve the site
generally. Depending upon your selections for our data protection
questions we may arrange for you to be sent information about related
products and services from us and carefully selected third parties (see
section 4). You may update the answers to your questions at any time.
4. Who we disclose it to
4.1. We will only pass on information about you as an individual (as
opposed to aggregate information) to third parties to enable us to
perform services requested by you or with your prior consent.
4.2. If you give your consent, we will pass your contact details to
third parties who may then occasionally send communications to you to
provide information, offers and services that may be of interest to
you.
4.3. In certain circumstances we may need to disclose information about
you if you breach this privacy policy or if you breach the Terms and
Conditions. We may also disclose or access your account if required to
do so by law or by any Governmental body.
4.4 We will only pass on information about you as an individual (as
opposed to aggregate information) to third parties overseas to enable
us to perform services requested by you.
5. Data Protection
Open is registered with the Information Commissioner in the UK as a
“data controller” in accordance with the provisions of the Data
Protection Act 1998. Further details of the registration are available
at: www.dpr.gov.uk.
6. Security
Keeping information about you secure is very important to us and
certain sections of the site may encrypt data using SSL or a comparable
standard. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be
guaranteed to be totally secure. As a result, whilst we strive to
protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the
security of any information which you send to us, and you do so at your
own risk.
7. Automated decisions
Parts of www.open-comms.com and our billing process are automatic
and we may process your personal data as part of www.open-comms.com and
the billing process.
8. Accessing and updating your personal information
We will always let you have a copy of personal information we have
about you, should you request it, and you may correct it if you wish.
Instructions about how to do this are available from info@open-comms.com
9. Questions?
