Privacy Policy

We operate our Privacy Policy in accordance with the UK Data Protection legislation.

Personal Information

We may ask you to submit personal information at various places on our web site, including on pages for requesting a service or information, subscribing to a newsletter, placing an order, submitting feedback, or participating in a forum or survey. This personal information, which you voluntarily submit, may include your name, address, email address and telephone number, as well as other information about, for example, your interest in Vegeco products and services, your employer, and your employment position.

We use this personal information to contact you or send you information you have requested or that we feel will be of interest to you. We may contact you via phone, email, or postal mail. We generally provide an option for you to choose not to receive these types of communications. However, even if you request not to be contacted by us, we reserve the right to use your contact information if we consider it necessary to send you crucial information about, for example, the product or services you have purchased from us or information about changes to our privacy policy.

Non-Personally Identifying Information

We may also collect information automatically about the use of our web site, through, for example, "cookies" or "IP addresses." This information is not collected and stored in a personally identifiable manner, however. This information helps us evaluate and improve our site and is also used for marketing and investment analysis. We may share this information with third parties, but only in aggregate statistical form that includes no personally identifying information.

"Cookies" are small files web sites place on your hard drive that allow sites to identify you. The use of cookies is a common practice on many web sites. For example, if you allow a site to remember your login name or password, the site places a cookie on your computer. Cookies cannot read any other information on your hard drive. We may place cookies on your computer to allow us to identify you, specifically when operating our shopping cart system where our site needs to track the cart contents until the order is completed. We may use cookies to measure web site traffic, to offer you certain services, or to customize your visit. However, if you do not wish to receive cookies, or want to be notified of when they are placed, your browser may permit you to do so. An "IP address" is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. In some cases your IP address stays the same from browser session to browser session; but if you use a consumer internet access provider, your IP address probably varies from session to session.

Corporate Family

We may share some or all of your personal information with any current or future "affiliate" (which means a parent company, a subsidiary, joint venture, or other company under a common control with Vegeco Ltd), in which case we will require the affiliate to honor this privacy policy. If another company acquires Vegeco (or a business unit of Vegeco that uses your personal information), that company will possess the personal information collected by Vegeco and it will assume the rights and obligations regarding your personal information as described in this privacy policy.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information you share with us from unauthorized access or disclosure. However, you should know that no company, including Vegeco, can fully eliminate security risks associated with personal information.

Your privacy is very important to us. Due to factors beyond our control, however, we cannot fully ensure that your personal information will not be disclosed to other third parties. For example, we may be legally required to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications.

Changes to the Privacy Policy

We may amend this privacy policy at any time by, in our discretion, either: (1) sending you a notice of the amended policy to the email address you have submitted to us (if applicable), in which case you agree to the amended version if you do not contact us to inform us otherwise, or (2) posting the amended version on our web site, in which case you agree to the amended version if you continue to use the web site.

Queries and Changes to Your Personal Information

If you have a question or comment about the Vegeco site or a request to correct or delete your personal information, please send it to us by email. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill your request in a timely manner. However, even if Vegeco deletes such personal information from its 'live' database(s), it may still be stored on other databases (including those kept for archival purposes).
