PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH IT, DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE.
Euram Chemicals Ltd (collectively, “Euram”) respect your privacy and we want you to understand how we intend to Personal Information (defined below). We developed this Privacy Policy pursuant to applicable law regarding the collection and use of Personal Information in those jurisdictions where we do business. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of Personal Information we gather when you (“you” or “User”) use the Euram website located at www.euramchemicals.co.uk, all pages residing at this domain and all websites owned and operated by Euram (collectively, the “Website”), how we use that information, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard it. We urge you to read the Privacy Policy in its entirety and hope it will help you make an informed decision about sharing your Personal Information with us.
- GENERAL PRIVACY PRINCIPLES
- Accountability
Euram is responsible for your Personal Information under its control. Euram has appointed an officer who is accountable for Euram’s compliance with this Privacy Policy. The privacy officer can be reached by regular mail at PO Box 346, Marlow, SL7 1NW, UK
- Identifying Purposes
“Personal Information” is information that individually identifies you, such as your name, company name, physical address, phone numbers, email address and any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact you. Euram may ask for your Personal Information so that it can understand your interests, determine if Euram’s products and services meet your needs, inform you about its products and services that it believes may be of interest to you, and/or to comply with the law. Of course, you may choose not to provide Euram with Personal Information when you visit the Website. However, this choice may prevent Euram from providing you with the product, service or information you requested or that could be offered to you. Our server does not automatically record Personal Information. Such information can become known to Euram only when you voluntarily submit it.
- Consent
Your knowledge and consent are required for the collection, use, or disclosure of your Personal Information. No Personal Information is collected without your express consent.
- Limiting Collection
Euram only collects the information that it needs in order to deliver products, services and information to you.
- Limiting Use, Disclosure and Retention
Euram does not use or disclose your Personal Information for purposes other than those for which it was collected or as set forth in this Privacy Policy, except as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy under the heading “Limits of Confidentiality,” or as required by law. Your Personal Information is retained only as long as necessary for the fulfillment of those purposes or as required by law.
- Accuracy
Your Personal Information is kept as accurately and completely as is necessary for the purposes for which it is to be used. You have the right to update, modify, amend or correct errors in your Personal Information by contacting Euram.
- Safeguards
Euram protects your Personal Information by using safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. Euram has made a substantial investment in its server, database, backup and firewall technologies to protect our information assets, including the confidentiality of information collected about Users. These technologies are deployed as part of a sophisticated security architecture and protocol. Each of our employees who has access to your Personal Information is informed about our Privacy Policy and procedures for protecting Personal Information.
You should also do your part in protecting your information. Your user name and password are confidential and we recommend that you not divulge them to anyone. Unfortunately, neither Euram’s network nor data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect User’s information, Euram cannot ensure or warrant the security of member information. Thus, any information a User transmits to us is done so at the User’s own risk. Once we receive User information, we undertake substantial efforts to protect the confidentiality of this information consistent with this Policy.
- Openness and Access
Euram will make its complete policies and practices relating to the management of your Personal Information readily available to you. Upon request in writing, either by email or letter, you will be informed of the existence, use or disclosure of your Personal Information and you will be given access to that information. Euram will assist any customer who informs us that they need assistance in preparing a request concerning Personal Information. You may also challenge, in writing either by email or letter, the accuracy and completeness of the information and have it amended as appropriate, or request that Euram delete or correct any Personal Information contained in your file.
- SPECIFIC PRIVACY PRACTICES
- Collection of Personal Information
We obtain and retain only the Personal Information that Users choose to provide to us. When you use any email form on the Website, we may collect Personal Information from you and offer you an area to enter comments or questions.
- Collection of Non-Personal Aggregated Website Usage Statistics
Euram collects and logs certain non-personally identifying information which a User’s browser makes available whenever a User visits the Website. This information includes a User’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address (a unique number assigned to every computer on the Internet), browser type, browser language, as well as the date and time of a User’s visit. This information does not include a User’s Personal Information. We use this information to administer, operate, develop, and improve the Website.
We may also track and store information in the aggregate as it relates to Users’ movement within the Website such as the pages from which the Users were referred, entry and exit points for the Website, search terms, pages Users visit, page views/impressions, access times, domain names and browser types. None of this information is linked to a User’s Personal Information.
- Cookies and other Automated Processes
We use cookies in connection with the Website. These are small text files that are stored on a User’s computer and record data about a User’s visit. Cookies assist web surfing by saving visitor preferences and other information. In general, we use cookies to collect information so that we can determine how to improve our Website and services by seeing which areas and features are most popular, to personalize the Website, to improve a User’s experience on our Website, and to complete transactions a User has requested. We reserve the right to use “persistent cookies” which are retained after a visit as well as “session cookies” which expire when a User closes a User’s browser.
The use of cookies is a widespread industry standard and thus many major websites use cookies. Most browsers automatically accept cookies as the default setting. A User can modify the setting to reject cookies or to prompt a User before accepting a cookie from the sites a User visits by editing browser options. If a User decides not to accept our cookies, a User will still be able to access those parts of our Website available to the general public but the User may not be able to use some of the Website’s features, and the User may have a less satisfactory experience.
We may also use web beacons on our Website. A web beacon, also known as a “web bug,” is a small, graphic image on a Web page, in a Web-based document or in an email message that is designed to allow us to monitor whether a particular computer has accessed the Website, the IP address of the computer to which the Web beacon is sent, the URL of the page from which the Web beacon comes, and the time it was viewed. None of this information is linked to a User’s Personal Information.
III. HOW WE KEEP USER INFORMATION SECURE
- Data Handling
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online which is in our possession or under our control.
