This policy covers all users who register to use the avsl.co.uk website. It is not necessary to register in order to gain access to the searching facilities of the site, but we may restrict access to certain areas as referred to in "Consent and Choice" below. Access to avsl.co.uk is free of charge to all users.
The avsl.co.uk website is operated by Audio Visual Systems Limited. We are committed to protecting your privacy when you are using our online services. To protect your privacy, we apply five principles which you can read about below.
Notice
During our registration process, we ask for personal information which both identifies you and enables us to communicate with you. We also invite you to tell us your interests so that we can make our communications relevant and interesting for you.
We will use the information you provide only for the following purposes:
- To send you newsletters and details of offers and promotions in which we beleive you will be interested
- To improve the content, design and layout of the avsl.co.uk website and to facilitate knowledge management
- To understand the interests and buying behaviour of our registered users
- To perform other such general marketing and promotional activities focused on our products and services
- We may also register you for our other services which we feel may be useful or of interest to you
This privacy policy only covers the avsl.co.uk website at http://www.avsl.co.uk. Other links within this site to other websites or framed third party sites within avsl.co.uk are not covered by this policy. We may continue to use your personal information for a period after you cease being a registered user.
Consent and Choice
If you choose not to register or not provide personal information, you may still visit the avsl.co.uk website but you will not be able to access the restricted areas available to registered users. By completing the registration process, you accept the Terms and Conditions described and consent to our using your information accordingly.
Access
We have provided an administration service (your account) where you can review your personal information at any time to ensure it is correct and current. You will be able to update, correct, change or delete inaccurate details. You may also change your choice of opting in or out of marketing and promotional activities, although you may continue to receive mailings for a short period while your change is being processed. You have the right to ask for a copy of your personal information on payment of a small fee.
Security
We have taken appropriate measures to ensure that your personal information is not unlawfully processed. avsl.co.uk uses industry standard practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal identifiable information, including "firewalls" and Secure Socket Layers. avsl.co.uk treats data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. However, no information transferred over the Internet or wireless network can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We employ many different security techniques to protect such data from unauthorised access by users inside and outside the company.
Our website creates a single cookie on your machine containing session and state information. The information within this cookie does not include personal or financial information. Our website requires cookies to be allowed in your browser to permit creation and to allow features and actions on the site to work without restriction. Please be aware that should cookies be disabled, features and actions that will be reduced in functionality or disabled altogether include shopping basket and login to your account (to manage account changes including address changes and payment method changes).
Information on how to block cookies can normally be found within the help features of your browser. Information can also be found on the main browser websites - for example http://www.microsoft.com/ie (Internet Explorer), http://www.opera.com/ (Opera) and http://channels.netscape.com/ns/browsers/default.jsp (Netscape).
We will not be transferring your personal information outside of the European Economic Area unless otherwise specifically advised.
Minors
The avsl.co.uk website is not intended for children and we ask that no-one under the age of 12 submits personal information to us or uses the site without supervision of a parent or guardian.
Deletion of your Personal Data
We are unable to delete your avsl.co.uk account information containing your personal information for a period of 6 years from the date of your last interaction with us (this could be a sales transaction, a return, or some other interaction with avsl.co.uk). This is because we may need to access historical information for business reporting purposes. Please note however, that at any point in time you may opt in or out of marketing communications via the "My Account" section of this website.
