This privacy statement discloses the privacy practices for 3rd Kingston Scout Group.
Information Collection and Use
3rd Kingston Scout Group 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 statement. 3rd Kingston Scout Group collects information from our users at several different points on our website.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still use our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will have limited functionality in some areas of our site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyse trends, administer the site, track user’s movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that 3rd Kingston Scout Group is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects user information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and email address.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line.
While we use our best efforts to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted to Group members. Only Group members who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, Leaders) are granted access to personally identifiable information. If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to webmaster@3rdkingston-scouts.org.uk.
Special Offers
We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established members will occasionally receive information and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Please see our choice and opt-out below.
Correction/Updating Personal Information:
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as e-mail address), or if a user no longer desires access to the Members' Area, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user’s personal data provided to us. This can usually be done by emailing the webmaster.
Choice/Opt-out
Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter may opt-out of receiving these communications by emailing us at webmaster@3rdkingston-scouts.org.uk.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected. |
