60.1 Your right to privacy is very important. We recognize that when you choose to provide us with information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner.

Below is a summary of our policy.


61 What personal information do we collect?


61.1 In general, when you visit our websites and access information you remain anonymous. Before we ask you for information, we will explain how this information will be used. We will not provide any of your personal information to other companies or individuals without your permission.

62 Protecting your privacy

62.1 We will take appropriate steps to protect your privacy. Whenever you provide sensitive information (for example, a Credit Card number to make a purchase), we will take reasonable steps to protect it, such as encrypting your Card number. We will also take reasonable security measures to protect your personal information in storage. Credit Card numbers are used only for payment processing and are not retained for marketing purposes.

62.2 We will not provide any of your personal information to other companies or individuals without your permission. However, we may need to provide your name and delivery address to third parties that we use for the purposes of delivering specific Services to you (e.g. ADSL service, or a shipping company if you have asked us to send something to you.)
