The policy is in place to help protect the rights of staff, customers and partners and is open on how we intent to store a process individuals’ data.

When you browse our website, you do so anonymously, unless you have previously indicated that you wish Minley Manor to contact you. We don't automatically collect personal information, including your email address. We do log your IP address (the Internet address of your computer) to give us an idea of which part of our website you visit and how long you spend there. But we do not link your IP address to any personal information unless you have logged in to our website. Like many other commercial websites, our website may use a standard technology called a "cookie" to collect information about how you use the site. Please go to "Cookies and Tracking Information" below for more information.

 

Minley Manor collects personal information when you submit your details for us in your request for information regarding Minley Manor, when you use certain services of Minley Manor, when you register to attend an event or participate in an online survey, when you ask to be included in an email or other mailing list, or you submit a request for a brochure, or when you submit your personal information to Minley Manor for any other reason. From time to time, Minley Manor receives personal information from business partners and vendors. Minley Manor only uses such information if it has been collected in accordance with acceptable privacy practices consistent with this Policy and applicable laws.

Notice

When personal information is collected, we will inform you at the point of collection the purpose for the collection. Minley Manor will not transfer your personal information to third parties without your consent, except under the limited conditions described under the discussion entitled "Information Sharing and Disclosure" below.

When obtaining your data for direct marketing purposes, other than processing a booking and/or service, we will provide you with the opportunity to “opt-in” and will clearly outline what future information you can expect to receive in the future, and how often. This means we require your affirmative action to indicate you consent before we use your information for purposes other than the purpose for which it was submitted. When collecting this data, we will keep a record of consent alongside a record of your data for as long as this is retained. You can easily unsubscribe or “opt-out” of direct marketing at any time.

 

Cookies and Tracking Information

A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Some parts of Minley Manor's website use cookies to track user traffic patterns. We do this in order to determine the usefulness of our website information to our users and to see how effective our navigational structure is in helping users reach that information.

 

If you prefer not to receive cookies while browsing our website, you can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies and refuse the cookie when your browser alerts you to its presence.
