Privacy

At Independent Test Services, we respect your privacy.

Scope
This statement sets out what we do when data about you comes to us.

Your 'footprints'
When you visit Independent Test Services's website our web site hosting provider automatically records certain data about you. Most other web sites do too.

The data is recorded in a log of accesses (the 'footprints') to our server.

Your trail
This log of accesses includes the web address you request, the machine from which you make the request, the web browser and version you use, your screen operating system, the time you make the request, a measure of the time each page is open on your computer screen and a record of each page visited.

Where parts of our web site require password access, data as to the login name, password entered and number of login attempts will be recorded.

No 'Tracking'
We are interested only in the total number of 'footprints' and where they occur on our site - we will not track you.

Limited Use of Data
We analyse the data and use the information we glean from this analysis to help us improve our web site and to monitor or prevent security breaches.

Any information you provide is protected from public access and will not be provided to third parties.

We will only disclose the content of our access logs if we are compelled to do so by law.

E-Mail
We will not add your e-mail address to a mailing list without your agreement.

If you email us requesting information, we may from time to time send subsequent emails providing you with other product information.

You can request at any time that you don't receive further emails where you have not directly requested the information and we will remove you from any email mailing lists.

We will not pass on your e-mail address to third parties.
An email that we receive through our web site may be archived or backed up on our server for our own records only.

In addition to the content of e-mail messages, we record (as is the standard practice) the date and time of message transmission, when the message was received and opened, and the e-mail addresses of the sender, recipients and mail programs.

Limitation of scope
We are not liable for use of your personal information by organisations that operate external sites linking to our site. This disclaimer extends to any misuse or unauthorised access to your personal information (whether caused by the negligence of Independent Test Services, its employees, agents, contractors or otherwise).

If you believe our site breaches any of the common privacy principles, or if you have any questions, please email us.
