privacy policy

SubcontractSolutions.com appreciates your visit to our web site www.SubcontractSolutions.com (the "Site"). At Subcontract Solutions we recognise the importance of honest and responsible use of your personal information. We want you to know what information we learn about you when you visit the Site, and what we do with that information. It is important to us that you feel comfortable in visiting the Site.

How do we collect information?
When you visit our site, we recognise only the IP Internet address of your computer. This information does not identify you personally and you remain anonymous unless you choose to provide information that personally identifies you, for instance by registering as a Member, sending us an email message or by otherwise telling us about yourself or your activities.

If you do choose to provide information that personally identifies you, we will collect that information for our own use for the purposes described in this privacy policy.

In addition, in common with many other organisations, we may send a "cookie" back to your hard drive on certain pages of the Site. A cookie is a small text file placed on your hard drive by our server and is essentially your "identification card" to us. It is uniquely yours, but it does not itself contain any information that identifies you personally and it can only be read by the server that gave it to you. Amongst other things, it allows you to navigate the Site easily. Its purpose is to tell our server that you have returned to a particular web page. It saves you time because if you personalise pages or register for access to a particular part of the Site, a cookie helps our Site to remember who you are. It also allows us to improve our Site because we can learn which parts of the Site are most popular.

Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies, but you can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, and then refuse the cookie when you receive the warning. Alternatively, you can set your browser to refuse all cookies automatically. If you set your browser to refuse cookies, you may not be able to use certain parts of the Site.

How do we use the information?
Subcontract Solutions' primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with a customised service and to be able to deliver better service and more relevant content. We use information we collect to fulfil your requests for information or Services, and to get a better understanding of our Member base. To this end, we analyse our members' demographics, interests, and behaviour based on the information provided to us through the Site. Our research and analysis is done on an aggregate basis, and is not intended to identify individual Members.

We may also, from time to time, use the details that you provide to send you information (by post or e-mail) about Subcontract Solutions and products and services offered by us which we believe would be of interest to you. You will receive such information only from us. However, we will not send you such information if you have indicated that you object to receiving it. If at any time you decide that you no longer wish to receive such information from us, please send an e-mail to contact@SubcontractSolutions.com, quoting your company code and user name.

Where does the information go?
Subcontract Solutions does not give, sell or rent information about you to any third party.

Subcontract Solutions may disclose personal information in special cases where we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating the Site and the Terms of Use, or otherwise infringing or interfering with our rights or property, or those of our Members or other visitors to the Site, and when we believe in good faith that we are required by law to disclose the information. By using our Site, and/or registering as a Member, you consent to the use of your personal information as described in this privacy policy.

Checking that the information is accurate
You may contact us at any time to check the accuracy of any information that we hold about you, or to request that we update, correct or delete the information by contacting contact@SubcontractSolutions.com. Once your Member registration information is deleted, however, you will not be able to access any Members-only area of Subcontract Solutions, including your Subcontract Solutions mail account, if any.
