SPACEBOOSTERS LTD. PRIVACY NOTICE
CONTROLLER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Any personal information provided to or gathered by Spaceboosters Ltd is controlled only by Spaceboosters Ltd 6 Brook Meadow Road, Shelfield, Walsall. West Midlands WS4 1TL. England U.K. Data cannot be passed to any holding or subsidiary companies because the company has none.
POLICY OF NON-SHARING AND DISCLOSURE
The company will not share with, or pass your data to, any third parties, persons or organizations for any purpose other than the following 3 unavoidable circumstances:
1. Agents necessary to operate our service: we employ other companies and agents to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include delivering packages, delivering post and processing credit card payments. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and as permitted by the UK's Data Protection Act.
2. Business transfers: as we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy subsidiaries or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that Spaceboosters Ltd is acquired customer information would be one of the transferred assets.
3. Protection of Spaceboosters Ltd and compliance with law: we release information when we believe that release is appropriate to comply with the law, to enforce or apply our terms and conditions and other agreements or to protect the rights, property or safety of Spaceboosters Ltd, our users or others. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in a way that is contrary to the commitments made in this Privacy Notice.
USE OF COOKIES
Only session cookies are used on this website and only at the point where you start to assemble a shopping basket or use login services. A session cookie is a piece of abstract text which your browser can accept. It is used like an identity token which enables our server to know it is communicating with the same computer (i.e. yours) over a short period of time. As far as we are aware it is impossible to implement an online shop without at least using session cookies in the way that we do. Session cookies contain no personally identifiable data about you. They expire from our server 20 minutes after your last action on the site.
TYPE AND SOURCES OF INFORMATION COLLECTED
We only try to collect the information we need to be able to process your order, deliver products, process payments and communicate with you about your orders. We do not send any unsolicited promotional material by email, although instructional information about how to refill toner cartridges may be included with your goods.
Here are the types of information we gather.
* Information you give us: we receive and store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way.
* E-mail address: As part of the ordering process we collect your email address because our credit card processing agents are required to have a way of contacting you about your transaction. We operate an opt-in email list for people who want to receive notification about new products they may be interested in. The opt-in is an explicit process, totally separate from that of placing an order with us. News is sent only to the people who explicitly opted-in and only about the specific product they opted-in for.
SECURITY MEASURES
* We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
* We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personally identifiable customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.
* We have consulted with IT professionals and adopted the highest known industry standard practices at every step in the development of our internet shopping and back-office systems.
* It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when you finish using a shared computer.
