Privacy Policy

La Shack respects and protects your privacy when you use the websites operated and owned by La Shack. The paragraphs below tell you how information is gathered and shared for the websites operated and owned by La Shack.

Information You Provide

There are a few activities on our sites where the collection of personally identifiable information is necessary. Where you provide personal information (e.g. name, address, telephone number etc.) to La Shack via its websites for whatever purpose (e.g. registration, survey, feedback), it will be made clear to you what the information collected will be used for and who it will be provided to. La Shack will only use the information collected for the stated purpose.

Specific personal information will be released where La Shack is required to do so by law, e.g. court order. All data received by La Shack will be protected, whether in a manual or electronic form in line with the principles of the Data Protection Act 1998 and British Standard 7799.

When the data is no longer required or fit for purpose, it will be destroyed or deleted from system areas. Access to data supplied will only be used by relevant La Shack staff; who will ensure that it can only be viewed by those authorized to do so.

Information Collected from You with Technology

Some information is collected about you using technology, so it may not be readily apparent to you that it is being collected. For instance, when you come to La Shack sites your Internet Protocol (IP) address is collected so that we know where to send information you are requesting. An IP address is often associated with the place from which you enter the Internet like your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or your company.

This information is not personally identifiable. La Shack uses this information to monitor the number of visitors to their sites and which pages you spend most time looking at. This helps La Shack to plan the site and make it more interesting and useful in the future.
