When we do need your personal information to provide information/services that you request or when you choose to provide us with your personal information, this policy describes how we collect and use your personal information. Any third party companies will have their own privacy policies.

We have developed this policy because we want you to feel confident about the privacy and security of your personal information. whitenotley.com takes all reasonable care to prevent any unauthorised access to your personal information.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you are visiting our website or using our services, by continuing to do so, you indicate your agreement to our use of your personal information as set out in this Privacy Policy.

What does this Privacy Policy cover?

This Privacy Policy only applies to our website and services.

If you disclose your personal information directly to other companies, your personal information will be dealt with according to their privacy practices.

What personal information do we collect about you, and when do we collect it?

When we refer to “Personal Information” in this privacy policy, we mean any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, e-mail address, telephone number, a home, postal or other physical address, birth date, gender, occupation, a valid credit card number to process payment for products and/or services and such other information when needed to provide a service/information that you requested or in whatever capacity that you visit our website.

If you register for a service from whitenotley.com, we may ask you for information such as your name, address, contact telephone number(s), email address, and other (optional) information. We may also ask you for personal information if you enter any competitions or promotions on our website.

We may receive personal information about you from third parties. Except in the cases where we are merely processing such information for them, we rely on third parties to obtain your consent for us to use this information.

What do we use your personal information for?

If you have registered for one of the services available through the website, we may use your personal information to:

a) communicate with you about your access to or use of our service,

As you navigate through this site, certain anonymous information can be passively collected (i.e. gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies, such as cookies, Internet tags or web beacons, and navigational data collection (log files, server logs, etc.). Your Internet browser automatically transmits to this site some of this anonymous information, such as the URL of the website you just came from and the Internet Protocol (IP) address and the browser version your computer is currently using.

Note: we will inform you at the point of collection when personal information is collected and we will give you the opportunity to "opt-out" of receiving direct marketing or market research information. This means we assume you have given us your consent to collect and use your information in accordance with this Policy unless you take affirmative action to opt out at the point of collection. Opt-out is the means by which you give us, or decline to give us, your consent to use your personal information for the purposes covered by the opt-out choice. In some cases, when applicable, we will provide you with the opportunity to "opt-in". This means we will require your affirmative action to indicate your consent before we use your information for purposes other than the purpose for which it was submitted.
