Privacy Policy

 

AWD respect your right to privacy, and what follows is an outline in how we deal with your personal data while visiting this website

 

What Data We Collect

 

Firstly there is the non-personal data.  That is information about how people use the site.  This information is not identifiable to any individual, but it is compiled, and analysed on an aggregate basis.  This information may be shared with our business partners to better understand how our website is used, and how best to improve this website, and the services we offer.

Then there is the personal data.  This is the information that identifies you, or can be used to identify you, or contact you like your name, address, email, billing information and such, and this personal data is necessary in order to provide you with the services we offer on this website.  Credit card details are also personal data, click here to see our security policy and how we handle such personal data.  Such types of personal data are asked for directly, and are not ‘trawled’ for by any automatic subversive methods, and we only look for the minimum information necessary to conduct our business with you as would be expected from you in a fair manner.  When submitting personal data we make an effort to provide a link to this Privacy Policy.   

Cookies are those wonderful things that give you the user the best experience with the minimum hassle when accessing the services offered on this website.  This website like most websites operates some cookies.  If you wish to learn more about what cookies do, and how to best manage them then visit http://www.aboutcookies.org  for more details. 

AWD may wish to contact you in the future to tell you about some of our products or services that we believe will be of interest to you.  If we do so we will first seek your permission to send you such details, and you will be given the choice to “opt-out” of receiving further marketing communications.

By voluntarily providing us with Personal Data on this website, you are consenting to our use of it in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

 

What we say about you to others

 

Sometimes we need to share your personal data with other companies to perform business related functions such as processing (non)payments, mailing service related information, and hosting databases.  When we use the services of such other companies, we only provide them with the minimum information they need, and only under the provision that they treat your personal data with the same respect as we have outlined in this Privacy Policy. 

 

Lock Down

 

AWD and our business partners take all reasonable steps to protect, and secure the Personal Data you provide on this site from improper use or loss. 

 

For Sale

 

Part of doing business sometimes requires us to sell part, or all of our business including your personal data to a third party.  In such a case we only provide them with the minimum information they need to provide the same services already being provided by AWD, and we would only do so provided that the third party would treat your personal data the same as outlined in this website Privacy Policy.  In such an event you will be notified prior to any such transfer and given the opportunity to opt-out.  

 

It’s the law

 

We also may be required to share your personal data when we are obliged to do so under statutory regulations as part of running our business.  This is usually with government regulatory bodies, and again it is under the provision that they treat your personal data with the same respect as we have outlined in this Privacy Policy. 

 

The Young Ones

 

AWD do not knowingly collect any personal data from children under the age of 16, and you must acknowledge that you are 18 years or older before giving any personal data on this website to engage in any of our services. 

 

Sometimes we get it wrong

 

If there is some detail of your personal data that is wrong, or has changed since you originally entered it then simply contact us here, and we will amend your personal data.  To see what personal data we hold on you or if you want your personal data deleted, and to be forgotten by AWD then click here.  This will be subject to our statutory obligations to retain particular personal data for specific periods.  

 

Changes to the Website Privacy Policy

 

Sometimes things change and we will need to update our Privacy Policy.  The date it was last updated is indicated above and there’s a cookie that will let you know if it has changed since the last time you visited this site.  If these changes mean that that we will use your personal data in a way very different from what was stated when you gave that information then we will let you know and you will have the choice whether to allow us to use your personal data in this new manner.   Your continued use of the website or our products after any changes will indicate your agreement with the revised Privacy Policy.

Regards,
