FARSONS GROUP Revised Website Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to the Farsons Group of Companies. We want you to feel confident about the privacy and security of your personal data and therefore we have developed a website privacy policy which includes all the rights granted to you by the Data Protection Act 2001. We hope the following policy will help you understand how we collect, use, and safeguard the personal data you provide to us through our website.
In this policy, “we” and “us” refers to Simonds Farsons Cisk plc and its subsidiaries
and “our” shall be construed accordingly. A list of companies making up the Farsons
Group is available on this www.farsons.com and kept up to date.
We advise you to read the policy carefully. If you have any questions regarding
privacy issues, you may write to our Data Protection Officer at the addresses below.
1. We do not obtain any personal data, that is, information that identifies you as an
individual other than that which you choose to provide. We only collect
information that we believe to be relevant to conduct our business, for marketing
purposes and to monitor the improvement of our products. At times we may
request that you voluntarily supply us with personal information, such as your
email address and postal address, for purposes such as corresponding with us,
registering at a site, making a purchase, or participating in an online survey or
competition.
2. We collect and use personal data to send direct marketing material on our
products, promotions and offers that may be of interest to you, to provide you with
information that you request, to respond to feedback that you submit to the sites,
to allow you to participate in any of our online surveys and competitions and
generally to be able to correspond with you after we receive a request from you.
3. We collect, use and keep any personal information given to us by you, strictly for
the purposes indicated in this policy and as described in our website and in strict
adherence to local Data Protection laws.
4. If you browse our website, you do so anonymously: we do not collect personal
information - such as your email address. We do log your IP address (the Internet
address of your computer) and we use technologies to give us an idea of which
parts of our website you visit and how long you spend there. But we do not link
this information to anything personally identifiable. The only other information
automatically provided to us is the type of computer and operating system you are
using. Your browser automatically supplies us with this information.
5. In some of our customer email communication, we use a device called a “clickthrough
URL.” When you click on one of these URLs, you pass through our
system before arriving at the website that is your true destination. We use clickthroughs
to determine the level of interest in particular topics and to measure the
effectiveness of our communications. We do not share this data with anyone, and
we make no attempt to match click-throughs to particular email addresses.
6. We do not send unsolicited mail, messages or junk mail. Customers have a right
to request not to receive direct marketing material by writing to us at the address
below.
7. We do not provide any third parties with any information that you provide unless
obliged to do so by law, by court order or with your specific consent.

8. Market research using customer information is only carried out so that we may
understand our customers’ needs and business trends and in order to develop and
improve our products.
9. Third party service providers may be contracted to provide services to us. For this
purpose, we will need to provide such companies/organisations with the necessary
personal data. We will make it mandatory on such companies/organisations to
strictly comply with all applicable provisions of law when processing your
personal data in the provision of their services to us.
10. Authorised third parties, including external service providers, with permitted
access to your information are specifically required to apply appropriate security
measures to appropriate technical and organisational security measures that may
be necessary to safeguard the personal data being processed from unauthorised or
accidental disclosure, loss or destruction and from any unlawful forms of
processing.
11. All reasonable efforts are made to keep customer information up-to-date. You
will help us take prompt and efficient action by informing us of any changes to
your personal data by sending us an email or writing to us at the addresses
provided below.
12. You may write to us at the same addresses if you would like to know what
personal information we hold about you.
13. We strive to invest in the latest security technologies available and maintain strict
information security policies designed to prevent unauthorised access to your
information by anyone, including our staff.
14. All our staff are aware of their responsibility for maintaining customer
confidentiality and complying with our information security policies.
15. Links that we provide to third parties websites are clearly marked and we are not
in any way responsible for the content of such websites. We suggest that users
should read the privacy policies of such third-party websites.
16. By using this website, you signify your assent to our privacy policy. If you do not
agree to this policy, please do not use this site.
17. We reserve the right, at our complete discretion, to change, modify, add and/or
remove portions of this policy at any time. Your continued access to or use of our
website will mean that you agree to any and all changes.
