privacy-statement
Privacy Policy 1. We are committed to protecting your privacy. 2. We may use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences when you visit our site. This could include only showing you a popup once in your visit, or the ability to login to some of our features, such as forums. We also use third party advertisements to support our site. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP , the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing real estate ads for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites). 3. We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests (”interest based targeting”). 4. The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history. (For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas, you may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about hockey). DART uses “non personally identifiable information”. It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx 5. You can choose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts. Deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently opted out of any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next time you visit a site running the advertisements, a new cookie will be added. 6. We will only use information that we collect about you lawfully (in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998). 7. We may also contact you by any of those above-mentioned methods, using the details you supply us, to inform you of any goods or services which we think may be of interest to you in the future. We may also share that information with other relevant third parties who may themselves contact you with offers of goods or services. You may tell us at any time if you would prefer not to receive such offers and should confirm this in writing. 8. We may from time to time perform statistical analyses on the geographic, demographic or other make-up of the membership database. Your information may be included in that analysis, the results of which we may share with relevant third parties. They will not be given any individual's personal details. 9. If you decide to register your personal information, (MMB Finance Ltd) may use it for marketing purposes. You consent to our transferring your data to group companies, members, other third parties or to countries which do not provide for the same level of data protection as the UK, if necessary for the above purposes and for the purpose of selling other relevant products or services.
