NISCO
Holdings S.L. - the company behind UK Computer
Services - (NISCO) is committed to protecting
your privacy. This privacy statement explains
data collection and use practices of the UK
Computer Services site (the “Site”); it does not
apply to other online or offline sites
controlled by NISCO, products or services. By
accessing the Site, you are consenting to the
information collection and use practices
described in this privacy statement.
Other NISCO
services with links from this Web site have
their own privacy statements which can be viewed
by clicking on their links.
On This Page
We will ask you when we need
information that personally identifies you
(personal information) or allows us to contact
you to provide a service or carry out a
transaction that you have requested such as
receiving information about NISCO products and
services, entering a competition, ordering
e-mail newsletters, joining a limited-access
premium site or service, signing up for an event
or training, or when purchasing, downloading
and/or registering NISCO products. The personal
information we collect may include your name,
title, company or organization name, work
e-mail, work phone, work or home address,
information about your job function, information
about your company, and credit card information.
The Site may collect certain
information about your visit, such as the name
of the Internet service provider and the
Internet Protocol (IP) address through which you
access the Internet; the date and time you
access the Site; the pages that you access while
at the Site and the Internet address of the Web
site from which you linked directly to our site.
This information is used to help improve the
site, analyze trends and administer the site.
The personal information
collected on this Site will be used to operate
the Site and to provide the service(s) or carry
out the transaction(s) you have requested or
authorized.
In support of these uses,
NISCO may use personal information to provide
you with more effective customer service, to
improve the Site and any related NISCO products
or services, and to make the Site easier to use
by eliminating the need for you to repeatedly
enter the same information or by customizing the
Site to your particular preference or interests.
In order to offer you a more consistent
experience in your interactions with NISCO,
information collected by this web site may be
combined with information collected by other
NISCO web sites and services.
We may use your personal
information to provide you with important
information about the product or service that
you are using. Additionally, with your
permission, we may send you information about
other NISCO products and services, and/or share
information with NISCO partners so that they may
send you information about their products and
services.
We merge site-visitation data
with anonymous demographic information for
research purposes, and we may use this
information in aggregate to provide more
relevant content.
When you sign up for a
newsletter or agree to receive promotional
e-mail, NISCO may use customized links or
similar technologies to track e-mail links that
you click. We may associate that information
with your personal information in order to
provide you more focused e-mail communications
or purchase information. Each e-mail
communication includes an unsubscribe link
allowing you to stop delivery of that type of
communication.
Some services on our network
offer individuals the ability to publicly
display certain personal information, such as
for a NISCO partner who wishes to publish
contact information as part of offering a
business service. Participation in such services
is always optional.
NISCO occasionally hires
other companies to provide limited services on
our behalf, such as domain name registrations
and DNS Management, packaging, mailing and
delivering prizes, answering customer questions
about products and services, and sending
information about our products, special offers,
and other services. We will only provide those
companies the personal information they need to
deliver the service. They are required to
maintain the confidentiality of the information
and are prohibited from using that information
for any other purpose.
NISCO may disclose personal
information if required to do so by law or in
the good faith belief that such action is
necessary to (a) conform to the edicts of the
law or comply with legal process served on NISCO
or the Site; (b) protect and defend the rights
or property of NISCO and our family of Web
sites; or (c) act in urgent circumstances to
protect the personal safety of NISCO employees
or agents, users of NISCO products or services,
or members of the public.
Personal information
collected on the Site may be stored and
processed in the United Kingdom, Lanzarote,
Spain, or any other country or region in which
NISCO or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents
maintain facilities, and by using the Site, you
consent to any such transfer of information
outside of your country.
We may occasionally make your
contact information available to our Area
Operators in order to provide a more local and
personal service.
Except as otherwise described
in this statement, personal information you
provide on the Site will not be shared outside
of NISCO and its controlled subsidiaries and
affiliates without your permission.
Please be aware that this
privacy statement and any choices you make on
the Site will not necessarily apply to personal
information you may have provided to NISCO in
the context of other, separately operated, NISCO
products or services.
NISCO may send out periodic
e-mails informing you of technical service or
security issues related to a product or service
you requested, or confirming you requested a
product or service. In some services offered by
NISCO, contact with the customer is an intrinsic
part of the service. You will not be able to
choose to unsubscribe to these mailings, as they
are considered an essential part of the
service(s) you have chosen.
You can access your personal
information by contacting NISCO as described at
the bottom of this statement, or through
alternative means of access described by the
service.
NISCO is committed to
protecting the security of your personal
information. We use a variety of security
technologies and procedures to help protect your
personal information from unauthorized access,
use, or disclosure. For example, we store the
personal information you provide on computer
servers with limited access that are located in
controlled facilities. Additionally, when we
transmit sensitive personal information (such as
a credit card number) over the Internet, we
protect it through the use of encryption, such
as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
This is a general audience
site and does not knowingly collect any personal
information from children.
We may use cookies on this
Site to personalize the Site. A cookie is a
small text file that is placed on your hard disk
by our Web page server. Cookies cannot be
used to run programs or deliver viruses to your
computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you,
and can only be read by a Web server in the
domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes
of cookies is to provide a convenience feature
to save you time. For example, if you
personalize a web page, or navigate within a
site, a cookie helps the site to recall your
specific information on subsequent visits. This
simplifies the process of delivering relevant
content, eases site navigation, and so on. When
you return to the Web site, the information you
previously provided can be retrieved, so you can
easily use the site's features that you
customized. We may, for example, use a cookie
to tell our web server that you have already
seen an advertisement which will prevent the
server from delivering it again.
Web beacons, also known as
clear gif technology, or action tags, may be
used to assist in delivering the cookie on our
site. This technology is a tool we use to
compile aggregated statistics about Web site
usage, such as how many visitors clicked on key
elements (such as links or graphics) on a Web
page. We may share aggregated site statistics
with partner companies.
You have the ability to
accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers
automatically accept cookies, but you can
usually modify your browser setting to decline
cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline
cookies, you may not be able to fully experience
the interactive features of this or other Web
sites you visit.
NISCO Web pages may contain
electronic images known as Web beacons -
sometimes called single-pixel gifs - that allow
NISCO to count users who have visited those
pages and to deliver co-branded services. We may
include Web beacons in promotional e-mail
messages or newsletters in order to determine
whether messages have been opened and acted
upon. We do not use Web beacons to collect or
access your personal information.
If you have questions
regarding this statement, you should
contact us
using the information at the bottom of this
statement.
We may occasionally update
this privacy statement. When we do, we will also
revise the "last updated" date at the top of the
privacy statement. For material changes to this
privacy statement, we will notify you either by
placing a prominent notice on the home page of
our Web site or by directly sending you a
notification. We encourage you to periodically
review this privacy statement to stay informed
about how we are helping to protect the personal
information we collect. Your continued use of
the service constitutes your agreement to this
privacy statement and any updates.
NISCO Holdings S.L. welcomes
your comments regarding this privacy statement.
If you believe that we have not adhered to this
privacy statement, please
contact us electronically or via postal mail
at the address provided below, and we will use
commercially reasonable efforts to promptly
determine and remedy the problem.
