Changes to our privacy policy

At EPP CIC we are committed to protecting your privacy. We protect any personal information you give us whilst using our websites.

Our policy complies with the Data Protection Act 1998. If you have any questions regarding our policy, please email it.department@eppcic.co.uk

By using our website you agree to accept the terms of this privacy policy.

Why we ask for your personal information?

Personal information is information that can be used to identify you. It may include your name, email address, telephone number.

We collect personal information when you ask about our courses, volunteering, to register with us (for example, registering for news updates from our website) or to order products and services (such as publications and email newsletters).

EPP CIC use of your personal information

We use your personal information to give you the information, services, or products you ask for. We can also use your information for administrative purposes, to let you know about changes. We sometimes also share your information with our service providers, trading companies, and associated organisations.

EPP CIC is responsible for collecting your personal information. Any information we collect is securely stored within the UK. Your personal information is not shared with third parties or used in any other way (other than described in this policy or as required by law) unless you agree.

We reserve the right to share your personal information if we are legally obliged to and to enable us to apply our terms and conditions and other agreements. This includes exchanging information with other organisations for fraud and credit risk reduction.

Whilst we aim to protect your personal information, EPP CIC cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk.

Use of "cookies"

EPP CIC uses "cookies" to enhance your experience on our website.

A cookie is a small text file we pass to your computer's hard disk through your web browser so the website remembers who you are when you return.

We use a type of cookie called a "persistent" cookie. These cookies store information between visits. For example, if you select the 'Remember me on this computer' box your email address and password is saved in a cookie on your computer. This means next time you log on to the site you will not need to re enter those details. We suggest you do not select the 'Remember me' box if you use a shared computer (for example, if you access the Internet at a café, or at a university).

Website analysis

EPP CIC uses Google Analytics to track use of our websites. Google Analytics uses cookies to gather statistics about our visitors, such as where you come from before entering our websites and which websites you go to afterwards. Information collected in this way is anonymous and individuals cannot be traced. This information allows us to improve our website.

For more information about Google Analytics, please see their privacy policy at: http://www.google.com/privacy.html

If you do not wish to have cookies stored on your computer you can easily change your web browser to refuse cookies.

Refusing cookies, however, can restrict your use of our websites. We recommend you leave cookies switched on.
