Cookies
While cookies are used to track a user's session, a visitors' identity is anonymous. Tracking with Cookies gives us information about which parts of our site are used most often and what information is viewed. Cookies are not linked to anything that can personally identify a visitor, until a visitor becomes a registered subscriber. Thus, session details are tracked, but the visitor is anonymous. Visitors who have provided us with registration information can be tracked during their sessions. This information is used to optimize our Web-based tools and under no circumstances will we make this information available to anyone.
IP addresses and server logs
We record IP addresses and produce server logs - as most Web Servers do. This information is used solely for monitoring the volume of traffic the site receives and measuring the number of subscribers. We do not use the information for tracking the activities of specific visitors to the site.
Advertising
Our site may contain links to many third-party Web sites and displays advertisements from third-parties through third-party advertisement servers.
Email and online forums
Members who choose to subscribe to our optional email updates service, or complete any of our online forms, may be asked to supply personal data. If they choose to do so, that information is recorded and used for broad demographic information.
If permission is granted, this information may be used to target specific users with occasional emails informing them about commercial services provided by CSI Manchester Ltd t/a CSI Media and/or its parent companies.
If permission is granted, this information may be used to send occasional emails containing offers from our partners. This will only ever be provided to subscribers who have specifically given us permission to use their information in this way.
We will never use your data for anything beyond the reason stated and the permissions you grant us.
Competitions
Members who enter CSI Manchester Ltd t/a CSI Media competitions will be asked for some personal information, but only to allow us to judge the validity of their applications and to contact them should they be declared a competition winner.
If permission is granted, this information may be used to target specific users with commercial services provided by CSI Manchester Ltd t/a CSI Media and/or its parent companies.
If permission is granted, this information may be used to send occasional emails from CSI Manchester Ltd t/a CSI Media containing offers from our partners. This will only ever be provided to readers that have specifically given us permission to use their information in this way.
We will never use your data for anything beyond the reason stated and the permissions you grant us.
Publishing
We reserve the right to publish emails and letters sent to us. If the sender asks that we don't reveal his or her identity, that information won't be published. We never publish a private email address unless specifically asked to do so by its owner.
