This policy covers The Web's Too Big Ltd.'s use of personal information that the we collect when you use our web sites (including UKPRagencies.com).
From time to time, you will be asked to submit personal information about yourself and your company in order to receive or use services on our website. In particular, when using our site to request information and quotes from selected PR agencies, the details you enter will be sent on to those agencies ("service providers").
By entering your details in the fields requested, you enable both The Web's Too Big Ltd. and selected service providers to provide you with the services you select. Whenever you provide such personal information, we will treat that information in accordance with this policy. When using your personal information, The Web's Too Big Ltd. will act in accordance with current legislation and aim to meet current internet guidelines.
During the course of any visit to one of our websites, the pages you see, along with a short text file called a 'cookie', are downloaded to your computer. Many websites use cookies because they enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the computer (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.
Information supplied by cookies can help us to provide you with a better online user experience and assist us to analyse the profile of our visitors.
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website's computer and stored on your computer's hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
Many sites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows.
Cookies record information about your online preferences. Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user and accordingly you may not be able to take full advantage of all of the website's features. Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
If you have set your computer to reject cookies you can still browse The Web's Too Big Ltd.'s websites anonymously. We only use cookies to assist with logging in procedures, and therefore the only affect that not allowing cookies from our websites will have is that users with logins will need to enter their login information each time they visit our sites.
For further information on cookies, please visit www.aboutcookies.org.
