   CGL is committed to protecting the privacy of the Site’s users. The following outlines our privacy and data protection policy.
   
   Third party partners of CGL and other websites you may access via the Site have different privacy policies and are not subject to this privacy policy. We recommend that you read the privacy statement of each such website to find out how they protect your personal information.

2. Collection and Use of User Details

   When you register at the Site, CGL collects personal details about you.
   
   Personal information such as your name, address, e-mail address and job title is collected via the Site’s order and registration forms.
   
   When you visit the Site, we also collect website usage information and information about your computer and internet connection, including your computer's IP address, the type and version of browser and operating system you use, your internet domain and, if you arrived at the Site via a link from another website, the URL of the linking page.
   
   We use this information to:
   
   
   • fulfil orders

   • notify you of relevant new products and features offered by the Site and the CGL group of companies (if you opt in to receiving such information)
   • notify you of promotions from the Site and from the CGL group of companies (if you opt in to receiving such information)

   • ensure, as far as is practical, that our site is compatible with the browsers and operating systems used by most of our visitors.
   We also use the information for in-house research to:
   
   
   • improve our understanding of customer needs in developing the Site
   • build marketing profiles
   • aid strategic development
   • manage our relationship with advertisers
   The results of all such research and analysis will be presented as anonymous or aggregated information and will not reveal any personal facts about individual customers.

3. User Choices

   The registration forms provide you with a series of choices regarding promotional activity and other communication with you.
   
   If you want to be kept informed of the Site’s, and the CGL group of companies, products and offers, as well as technical or functional developments related to the Site and on-line services, then you should tick the relevant opt-in box.
   
   You may also indicate whether you wish to receive such information from other CGL group businesses.
   
   If you wish, we will occasionally allow other similar, reputable organisations to contact you. If you wish to hear from these companies, please tick the appropriate box on the registration form.

4. Cookies

   A cookie is a small file, which is placed on the user's hard drive during a visit to the Site. This file allows the user to move quickly and easily around the Site. It is used to identify returning users and to identify subscribers and registrants (a registrant - and subscriber - will have the cookie linked to their e-mail address as a way of identifying them). [This means that if you are a registrant or subscriber, you will not have to login each time you visit. We also use a cookie to track a user's sessions. We use this information to find out what site features are most popular so that we can develop the Site in the light of our analysis of people’s usage. We also use cookies and the information we collect to show you relevant content and advertising.]
   
   You can delete cookies from your hard drive at any time. [Bear in mind, though, that if you delete these cookies, any settings such as your stored username and password will have to be reset when you log in again.]
   
   [Unlike many websites, you will be able to use the Site even if you set your browser not to accept any cookies. However, certain features and content may not be available to you and you will have to log in every time you visit.]
   
   Further information on the use of cookies can be found at: http://www.cookiecentral.com.

5. E-mails

   [CGL uses reputable third parties to deliver the e-mails you will receive from our site if you subscribe to our e-mail newsletters or have chosen to receive information about the Site’s and CGL’s products and offers. These third parties use unique identifiers and invisible images (often called "pixel tags" or "clear GIFs") to perform message open sensing, message format sensing, and clickthrough sensing on behalf of CGL in order to bring you more relevant information.]
   
   [To find out more about these technologies as used in the e-mails sent on behalf of CGL, please contact us. Content and some ad services in these e-mails are provided by CGL or another third party ad server.]

6. Adverts

   CGL uses various methods to deliver the advertisements that are placed within the site. As part of this process, CGL may note some of the pages you visit on our site through the use of pixel tags (also called "clear gifs"). In the course of serving advertisements to this website, CGL may place or recognise a unique "cookie" on your computer on behalf of CGL in order to bring to you more relevant information and in order to make sure that you do not receive the same advert many times in the same session.

7. Security Policy

   CGL has appropriate measures in place to ensure that users' personal details are not misused, accidentally destroyed, lost or altered within the CGL group server environment.
   
   Occasions will arise when customer information is passed outside the CGL group to other data processors (i.e. fulfilment bureaus, database consultants etc.) but they will only act upon instruction from CGL in order to perform the services required.

8. Transfer of Personal Data Overseas

   Given that the Internet is a global environment, using the Internet to collect and process personal data necessarily involves the transmission of data on an international basis. Therefore, by browsing the Site and communicating electronically with us, you acknowledge and agree to our processing of personal data in this way.

9. Updating Customer Details

   It is important to us that we have your correct contact information so that you don't miss out on further correspondence or experience problems with the delivery of products.
   
   You can change your personal information or your e-mail requirements by updating your account information at:
   
   http://www.blglobal.co.uk/user/Profile.aspx.

10. Children Under 13

    CGL does not intentionally collect any personally identifiable information from individuals under the age of 13. When necessary, underage users will be told not to submit any personal details and we will make every effort to delete any details of such users where a parent or guardian has informed us that these details have been collected.

11. Changes to this statement

    Due to changes in legislation and best practice or enhancements to functionality and content on the Site we may make changes to our privacy policy and will reflect those changes in this statement, so you should check here from time to time.

12. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

    This Privacy Policy shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, Jersey law. The parties irrevocably agree that the courts of the Island of Jersey shall (subject to the paragraph below) have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute which may arise out of, under, or in connection with this Privacy Policy or the legal relationship established by them, and for those purposes irrevocably submit all disputes to the jurisdiction of the Jersey courts.
    
    For the exclusive benefit of CGL, CGL shall retain the right to bring proceedings as to the substance of the matter in the courts of the country of your residence or, where this Privacy Policy entered into in the course of your trade or profession, the country of your principal place of business.
