1.5 This policy does not apply to companies, organisations or sub-contractors that are not connected to or part of the same organisation as IceBlue Marketing & Design Limited or in relation to websites that IceBlue Marketing & Design Limited does not own or control.

2. General User Activity Information

2.1 We gather general information about users (outside the information referred to in the Cookies Policy), for example, what services users access the most and which areas of our sites are most frequently visited. Such data is used in the aggregate to help us to understand how each of our sites is used.

2.2 We gather this information so that we can continue to improve and develop our services to benefit of our users. We may make this aggregated information available to our commercial partners, to our advertiser clients and also to auditors.

2.3 These statistics are anonymous and contain no personal information and cannot be used as a means to gather such information.

3.1 When you register with us, use any Interactive Services, or buy a product or service, depending on the sort of service you wish to obtain, we may ask for personal information such as your name, date of birth, contact details, and other details.

3.2 Once you register with any of our sites and accept our Terms & Conditions, you are not anonymous to us and the very nature of our relationship means that we will be aware of your personal data.

3.3 We may use information that you provide to alert you to our own products and services and may contact you regarding changes to the sites to which you are registered or changes to our products or services that you use.

4. Disclosure of Personal Information

4.1 We do not disclose information about your individual visits to any of our sites, or personal information that you provide, such as your name and personal contact details unless you have given us your express permission or we reasonably believe that the law requires it.

4.3 IceBlue Marketing & Design Limited can only confirm its own position in relation to your personal information and cannot be responsible for the information that the client receives in these or similar circumstances.

4.4 We may send personally identifiable information about you to other clients when we:
a) already have your consent to share the information;
b) need to share your information in order to provide the products or services you have requested;
c) have to send the information to companies who work on our behalf to provide a product or service to you.

d) are legally obliged to respond to subpoenas, court orders or due legal process.

4.5 Where your data is collected and sent to other organisations for processing that is in both our and their interests, we will be making decisions together in relation to that particular processing and will be ‘joint controllers’ with the organisations involved. Under data protection laws, we will be jointly responsible to you for any processing of that personal data. Where this is not the case, the other organisation will be separately responsible to you and they will set out their responsibilities in their own privacy statement. We do not sell your personal data to anyone.

4.6 We may share your personal data on the basis of legitimate interest with our project partners that include Coventry and Warwickshire Growth Hub and Stoke and Staffordshire Growth Hub.

5. Interactive Services

5.1 Where individuals engage with the ability of our sites to store personal information about them, the way such information is stored means that it can be downloaded or printed off, again, as part of the process an individual will have had to expressly agreed to allowing such information to be downloaded by other users.

5.2 We can offer individuals the option of remaining anonymous but where this option is not taken, individuals must be aware of the possible disclosure of this information to third parties. Those parties are contractually obliged to obtain, store and use that information solely for the purposes for which it is made available by individuals but apart from this, we cannot control third party organisations’ use of such data.

5.3 Individuals should therefore be aware that this disclosure, for the purposes of meeting their expectations, may occur.
