MICE @ GOCo is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. It is very important to us that you should be able to use and enjoy our web sites without having to compromise your privacy in any way. This policy will help you understand how your personal information will be treated. This policy may change from time to time so please check back regularly. Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example on message boards, through e-Mail, or in chat areas - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords. MICE @ GOCo will NEVER compromise your security by asking for your password online. Please be careful and responsible when you are online. If you have any requests concerning your personal information or any queries with regard to these practices, please contact e-mail us at: miceatgoco@ukprofessionals.com. Please note, your rights under the Data Protection Act 1998 are provided for on the forms used on this site for information, donation, or Subscription. What personally identifiable information does MICE @ GOCo collect from me? MICE @ GOCo collects information in several ways from different parts of our network of web sites.

Some personal information is gathered when you send data through our web sites, or subscribe to publications or events. During communications, MICE @ GOCo asks for your name, e-Mail address, address and postcode and personal and professional interests and responsibilities. The more accurate the information you volunteer, the better we are able to customise the information, support and help with can provide via our web sites. Once you provide data you are no longer anonymous to MICE @ GOCo - you may be given a password and are able to take full advantage of our services, (which may be subject to a charge to cover disbursements and administration costs, e.g. photo-stat copying, postages and incidentals). In addition to completing details on the form(s) on this or other web site(s) we may ask you for personal information at other times, for example when you ask to become involved in a promotion, liturgical, social or fundraising event run or sponsored by MICE @ GOCo and when you report a problem with one of our sites or services. If you contact MICE @ GOCo we may keep a record of that correspondence. MICE @ GOCo also occasionally may ask users to complete surveys that we use for research purposes.

Whenever MICE @ GOCo collects personal information we try to include a link to this Privacy Policy on the page in question. Your responses help us to sell appropriate advertising space and so minimise the cost of our services to you - or even provide some of them at no charge at all. They also enable us to personalise services to our readers. MICE @ GOCo uses cookies as a means of offering and providing customisable and personalised services. However, your browser has settings that will allow you to accept all cookies, be informed as cookies arrive or reject all cookies. The downside of rejecting all cookies is that we are then unable to match the site content we offer you to what we know about your preferences from your previous visits. In addition, advertising networks that serve ads onto MICE @ GOCo sites may use their own cookies. MICE @ GOCo collects IP addresses for system administration, for independent audit and to report aggregate information to our advertisers. By this we can see how our sites are being used, for example, what services and facilities are popular, and how long users spend on particular pages. This is data about our users' browsing actions and patterns and it does not identify anyone individually. When you telephone MICE @ GOCo, or someone who is dealing with calls on our behalf, we may record the conversation to ensure the security of any transaction discussed, to help us to review our quality of service and to assist in the training and development of the employees who take such calls. How does MICE @ GOCo use my information? MICE @ GOCo primary goal in collecting personal information concerning subscribers is to provide them with a customised experience of our site.

By knowing a little about you, MICE @ GOCo is able to deliver more relevant advertisements and content to you, and by demonstrating the quality of our users we are able to secure advertising funding which keeps down the costs to the users. When delivering targeted advertisements, MICE @ GOCo acts merely as the middleman. Advertisers give us an advertisement and tell us the type of audience they want to reach (for example, design specialists, or pump buyers in process industries). We take the advertisement and display it to users meeting the relevant criteria. When you join one of our e-Mail newsletter services the e-Mails you receive may include advertising material and links to advertisers' web sites. This does not mean that your details have been passed to the advertiser in question. Furthermore, at the end of each newsletter you will find either a hyperlink or a description of a route to have yourself removed from further editions of that newsletter. MICE @ GOCo undertakes research on our users' demographics, interests and behaviour based on the information provided to us upon registration, during a promotion, from our server log files or from surveys. We do this to better understand and serve you, the user. This research is compiled and analysed on an aggregated basis. MICE @ GOCo may share this aggregated data with advertisers or business partners. We will use our best endeavours to ensure, where reasonable, that our business partners and advertising customers have effective on-line privacy policies and are registered under the Data Protection Act (as all of our relevant businesses are). When you are on a MICE @ GOCo site and are asked for personal information, you may not be sharing that information with MICE @ GOCo alone. Some services are offered jointly with a partner group. In order to provide this co-branded service to you, it is necessary for us to share your personal information with those partner companies.

Promotions and competitions that run on MICE @ GOCo site(s) may be sponsored by companies outside the MICE @ GOCo or may be co-sponsored by us and another body. Some or all data collected during a promotion may be shared with the sponsor. Please be aware that MICE @ GOCo advertisers or web sites that have links on our site may collect personally identifiable information about you. The information practices of those web sites linked to MICE @ GOCo are not covered by this privacy statement. With whom does MICE @ GOCo share my information?

MICE @ GOCo and its associates, or agents are prohibited by virtue of the Data Protection Act 1998 from disclosing any of your personally identifiable information except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the law requires it or under the circumstances described below. The following describes some of the ways that your information may be disclosed. We may disclose your personal information to business partners or sponsors, but this is drawn to your attention prior to data collection. Some or all data collected during any MICE @ GOCo promotions may be shared with a sponsor. If personally identifying data about you will be shared, we will tell you when we collect the data. If you subscribe from a site hosted by MICE @ GOCo, the information obtained during the purchasing transaction, and the information you give such as your credit card number and contact information, is provided to the merchant concerned. This is to enable transactions to take place. You agree that MICE @ GOCo and its associates, or agents have no responsibility or liability for any such independent store privacy policies. From time to time, you may be offered the opportunity to receive materials or special offers from selected third parties. If you opt-in to receive information from these third parties you are giving us permission to share your name and e-Mail and/or physical address details with them. Under confidentiality agreements, MICE @ GOCo may match user information with third party data. Also, MICE @ GOCo may disclose aggregated user statistics in order to describe our services to prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties, and for other lawful purposes.

Finally, MICE @ GOCo may also disclose account information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating MICE @ GOCo Terms, Database Rights or Copyright or may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) MICE @ GOCo rights or property, other MICE @ GOCo users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. MICE @ GOCo or its sponsors or partners bodies may, from time to time, contact you regarding their church services or activities. On some types of MICE @ GOCo promotions, we will ask for your e-Mail address in order to update you on your score, entries and status. When you participate in these types of promotions, you automatically receive promotion-related e-Mail. Sometimes these promotion-related e-Mail messages may include targeted advertisements. From time to time MICE @ GOCo does rent or sell user information to other reputable organisations as permitted under the Data Protection Act 1998. If you do not wish to allow your data to be shared, you can choose not to use a particular service, not to participate in certain promotions or contests, or you can select to opt out of your information being shared on pages we ask you to complete and send to us. No data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed entirely secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, MICE @ GOCo can neither ensure nor warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.
