DAIRY WEEK PRIVACY AND SECURITY POLICY

Introduction

Dairy Week Limited is committed to protecting the privacy of personal information you might provide via the Dairy Week Limited website. This policy explains how Dairy Week Limited manages personal information and the security precautions taken.

1. Collection of personal information

Dairy Week Limited collects information about Dairy Week’s subscribers and website users, including:

• personal information provided voluntarily when subscribing to Dairy Week;

• website usage information through tracking individual website users’ click behaviour;

• aggregated statistical data, measuring traffic to the websites but not relating to you personally.

2. Protection of personal information

When you subscribe to Dairy Week, or when you log on to the Dairy Week Limited web site for any reason, a secure server is used. Our security procedures provide that, in addition to any password, which you may require to gain access to Dairy Week or information on the Dairy Week Limited web site, you may have to provide proof of identification before we will release personal information to you at your request. We undergo periodic reviews of our security policies and procedures to ensure that our systems are secure and protected.

We employ appropriate technical security measures to protect your personal information and to ensure that it is not accessed by unauthorised persons (unless in the case of your information when subscribing to Dairy Week you have indicated otherwise to Dairy Week Limited when subscribing).

Information is held on secure servers and is encrypted whenever possible.

3. Use of Information

4. Disclosure of personal information

Dairy Week Limited’s Policy is designed to maintain the confidentiality of all personal information.
