CompuWeb Communications Services Limited (CWCS) Privacy Policy

Your right to privacy is very important. CWCS recognise that when you choose to provide us with information about yourself, you trust us to act in a responsible manner.

Below is a summary of our policy.

What Personal Information do we collect?

When making a purchase with CWCS, we will collect your contact information, which includes name, address, email address and phone number, as well as payment information.

Protecting your privacy

We will take appropriate steps to protect your privacy. Whenever you provide sensitive information (for example, a credit card number to make a purchase), we will take all reasonable steps to protect it, such as encrypting your card number. We will also take reasonable security measures to protect your personal information in storage. Credit card numbers are used only for payment processing and are not retained for marketing purposes.

On occasion, we may need to provide your name and delivery address to third parties that CWCS may use for the purposes of delivering specific services to you (e.g., customer support.). We will not provide any of your personal information to other companies or individuals for marketing purposes without your permission.

CWCS may provide links to third party sites. Since we do not control those websites, we encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third party sites.

You should make sure you periodically review the Privacy Policy to make sure it meets your needs.

Information Disclosure Policy

Personal and account information

CWCS will not otherwise disclose its customers' personal and account information unless CWCS has reason to believe that disclosing such information is necessary to identify, make contact with, or bring legal action against someone who may be causing harm or interfering with the rights or property of CWCS, CWCS' customers, or others, or where CWCS has a good faith belief that the law requires such disclosure.

CWCS also will not, except for reasons stated below, disclose to third parties the contents of any electronic mail or other electronic communications that CWCS stores or transmits for its customers. The circumstances under which CWCS will disclose such electronic customer communications are when:

CWCS disclaims any intention to censor, edit or engage in ongoing review or surveillance of communications stored on or transmitted through its facilities by customers or others. CWCS will, however, review, delete or block access to communications that may harm CWCS, its customers or third parties or otherwise infringe the rights of third parties.
