On the Site we invite you to:

  • view Products on offer;

  • submit your requests for a PDS; and

  • send us any feedback or queries you may have.

 

We collect this information in order to facilitate your access to the Site and the functionality provided by the Site. If you do not provide us with this information, we may not be able to provide you with access to all or part of the Site or functionality offered through the Site.

 

In addition to the purposes set out above, this information may be used by Storehouse in connection with the management and the operation of the Site generally, and may be provided to law enforcement and government bodies, insurers, Storehouse staff and subcontractors, third parties who provide Storehouse with services from time to time.

  • the fully qualified domain name from which you accessed our Site, or alternatively, your IP address;

  • the date and time you accessed each page on our Site;

  • the URL of any webpage from which you accessed our Site (the referrer);

  • cookies which track your visits to the Site;

  • the web browser that you are using and the pages you accessed.​

 

We use this information so that we can tell which pages are the most popular and also to improve our site. If this information is linked with personal information we hold about you as set out above, this information becomes personal information and will be treated in the same manner as the personal information to which it has been linked.

 

How Your Information is Stored

 

Information held about you (for example, your E-mail Newsletter subscriptions) is held in a database. The database is protected by a firewall as well as host-based security. Your personal data may be transmitted over the Internet once it has been stored in the database and may also be transferred across borders to foreign countries, where doing so is part of Storehouse’s business practices relating to the storage of data and where permitted by law.

 

If Storehouse ever has a requirement to transmit the data over the Internet (for example, to make an off-site back up) it will be in encrypted form. If you provide us with additional information to verify your identity, we will destroy the copies of the documents you provide to us after we have successfully verified your identity.

 

Advertisers and Partners on Storehouse Websites

 

Storehouse may allow advertising on its Site from time to time. Once you have clicked on an advertisement and have left the Site, our privacy policy no longer applies. You must read

the privacy policy of the advertiser or subsequently visited site to see how your personal information will be handled on those sites.

In addition, many business advertisements may be managed and placed on our Site by third-party companies. These "network advertisers" collect non-personal information when you click on or scan one of their banner advertisements.

 

The information is collected using technology, so you may not realise it is being collected. The network advertisers collect this information so that they may show you ads that are more relevant or interesting to you.

 

On occasion the Site may also provide content that is created by a third-party partner website. In some instances the third-party sites will collect information in order to facilitate the transaction or to make the use of their content more productive and efficient. In these circumstances the information collected is shared between Storehouse and our third-party sponsors.
