5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?
In Short: We may use cookies and other tracking technologies to collect and store your information.
We
may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and
pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how
we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set
out in our Cookie Notice.
6. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?
In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.
We
will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary
for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer
retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax,
accounting, or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us keeping your personal information for longer than 90 days.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise
such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because
your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we
will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any
further processing until deletion is possible.
7. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?
In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organisational and technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational
security measures designed to protect the security of any personal
information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to
secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or
information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so
we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorised
third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly
collect, access, steal, or
modify your information. Although we will do our best to protect your
personal information, transmission of personal information to and from
our Services is at your own risk. You should only access the Services
within a secure environment.
8. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?
In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.
We
do not knowingly solicit data from or market to children under 18 years
of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18
or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to
such minor dependent’s use of the Services. If we learn that personal
information from users less than 18 years of age has been collected, we
will deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to promptly
delete such data from our records. If you become aware of any data we
may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at vscumbria@btopenworld.com.

In some regions (like the EEA and UK),
you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. These
may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your
personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure; (iii) to
restrict the processing of your personal information; and (iv) if
applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you may also
have the right to object to the processing of your personal information.

you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. You can
withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact
details provided in the section 'HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?' below.

will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in
reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
Cookies and similar technologies:
Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer,
you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and to
reject cookies. If you choose to remove cookies or reject cookies, this
could affect certain features or services of our Services. You may also opt out of interest-based advertising by advertisers on our Services.
10. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track ('DNT')
feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference
not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and
collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised.
As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any
other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be
tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we
must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a
revised version of this privacy notice.
11. DO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In Short: Yes, if you are a resident of California, you are granted specific rights regarding access to your personal information.

law, permits our users who are California residents to request and
obtain from us, once a year and free of charge, information about

parties for direct marketing purposes and the names and addresses of all
third parties with which we shared personal information in the
immediately preceding calendar year. If you are a California resident

writing to us using the contact information provided below.

We may update this privacy notice from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated 'Revised'
