VGI SOLUTIONS PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit www.vgisolutions.co.uk (the “Site”).

PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

  • “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
  • “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.

Additionally, when you submit the quote request or contact forms through the Site, we collect certain information from you, including your name, telephone number and email address.

When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and the additional information.

HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

If you complete and submit either of the quote request or contact forms, the information is transferred securely to our web server and immediately transmitted to the members of staff responsible for responding to enquiries. The data is stored securely in email format; it is used to facilitate a response to your enquiry. Unless you enter into further business with us, your data will be destroyed when your enquiry has been dealt with.

If you then go on to enter into business with us by engaging any of our services, we may request further personal data from you at that time and will provide further details of how your data will be used.

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk, and more generally to improve and optimise our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).

What is a cookie?

Each cookie is unique to your web browser. It will contain some anonymous information such as a unique identifier and the site name and some digits and numbers. It allows a website to remember things such as your preferences or remembers your details when filing out a form. They are controlled by your computer. If you visit the Tools section in your browser menu, you will find details of your cookies settings.

Cookies That We Use

Our website uses cookies to help us understand how people use our website. We use cookies to capture which pages are most popular, how long people spend on each page and what links they use to access the information they are seeking. We may also use cookies to enable the website to ‘remember’ details that you voluntarily give, such as when you complete online forms, so that you do not have to retype the information next time you use the website.

The Server company we use to host our website also uses cookies from time to time in order to ensure there is a good service even at times of high demand (facilitating a process known as ‘load balancing’).
