What is the purpose of this Privacy Policy?
Woods Quay has created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to our users. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for our websites. Please continue reading for complete details on the Woods Quay privacy policy. If you have any questions about the policy, you can request more information by filling in the contact us form.
What information do we collect from users and how is it used?
Woods Quay is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this policy. Information is retained indefinitely, but you may request a removal of data that pertains to you by filling in the contact us form.
When someone visits the Woods Quay website we use third party services, Google Analytics & Google Tag Manager, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website. If we do want to collect personally identifiable information through our website, we will be up front about this. We will make it clear when we collect personal information and will explain what we intend to do with it.
How do I update or remove my information?
If, at any time, your contact information changes, or you would like to verify, change or request removal of the information we have in our records concerning you or your company, please contact us by filling in the contact us form.
Correspondence
If you correspond with us via email or snail mail we may gather the information in a file specific to you. We only collect the Personally Identifiable Information that you provide to us. While we may gather market data from other resources, the scope of our knowledge about Personally Identifiable Information based upon your use of our site is entirely up to you. Like many other websites, Woods Quay collects information about users’ utilization and navigation of our site. This information helps us to design our site to better suit our users’ needs.
How does a customer ‘opt-in’ or ‘opt-out’ of promotional E-mail?
As part of the registration process for our monthly e-newsletter, we collect personal information. We use that information for a couple of reasons: to tell you about news, offers and promotions you’ve asked us to tell you about; to contact you if we need to obtain or provide additional information; to check our records are right and to check every now and then that you’re happy and satisfied.
Users are offered the opportunity to receive marketing, promotions, offers and news from Woods Quay when submitting a contact form.
We use a third party provider, MailChimp, to deliver our newsletter. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our e-newsletter. For more information, please see MailChimp’s privacy notice.
You can opt out of receiving the news letter at any time using the unsubscribe link included on every email.
