Privacy Policy
safeCAB is strongly committed to protecting your privacy
while interacting with our content, products and services.
We want to provide a safe and secure environment for you and
your children.
safeCAB is concerned about protecting the safety
and privacy of young people using our services. We encourage
you to participate in your child's online experience.
The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to tell
you what kind of information we may gather about you when
you visit our site, how we may use that information, whether
we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding
our use of, and your ability to correct this information.
Our policy allows you to choose what kind and how much information
you provide to us and to control how we use whatever information
you give us. Our goal is to provide you with a satisfying
experience while allowing you to control your privacy and
to give you a means to voice any questions or concerns you
may have.
This policy applies only to safeCAB and not
to other companies' or organisations' websites to which safeCAB
is linked.
Collection of information
Information is collected from you primarily to make it easier
and more rewarding for you to use our services. Depending
on the service you are accessing, you could be asked to provide
information such as your name, email address or information
about what you like and do not like. It is entirely your choice
whether to respond to these questions or not.
safeCAB collects two types of information.
The first type is anonymous information. For instance, we
may collect information to tell us that five thousand people
visit this Privacy Policy today, but we do not know their
names, where they live or their date of birth - they are 'anonymous'
to us. Another example of safeCAB collecting anonymous
information is when ABC audiences are invited to respond to
surveys on safeCAB website. The surveys may ask you for demographic
information such as your age, gender and postcode. This information
is collected for research purposes, is used in the aggregate
(where possible), and remains anonymous. Many of the individuals
who access our services are anonymous to us.
The second type of information that safeCAB
collects is personal information. safeCAB will collect
personal information that lets us know the specifics of who
you are such as your name, email address, or postal address,
when you provide it to us. With this information, safeCAB
can provide a variety of personalised and enhanced services
that are not available to anonymous users. We hope that you
will find it beneficial to provide individually identifiable
information about yourself to us because it will make our
services more valuable to you.
Sometimes, we may specifically ask for personal
information about you when you sign up to use a service. Certain
information may be required, such as your name, age, internet
address or screen name, billing address, type of computer,
credit card number, in order to provide that service or product
to you. This information may also be used to inform you of
additional products and services which may interest you. You
can choose not to receive such information when you are undertaking
product or service registration on our website. We may also
ask about your interests, but it is your choice whether to
respond.
How much of your personal information that you
choose to disclose to safeCAB is completely up to you.
The only way we know something about you personally is if
you provide it to us, for example when you take part in a
discussion forum or enter one of the competitions on our websites.
Use of anonymous information
safeCAB automatically gathers anonymous information to
monitor the use of safeCAB like the numbers and frequency
of visitors to safeCAB and its areas, very much like television
ratings that tell the networks how many people tuned in to
a program. We only use such data in the aggregate. This collective
data helps us determine how much our audiences use parts of
the site, so we can improve safeCAB to assure that it is
as appealing as we can make it for as many users as possible.
safeCAB may publish or provide this aggregate data to other
people.
Use of personal information
safeCAB will only use the personal information you have chosen
to provide us for the purpose for which you provided it. safeCAB
will not use it for any other purpose without your consent.
Disclosure
There will be occasions where it will be necessary for safeCAB
to disclose your personal information to third parties. safeCAB
may be required by law to disclose the information, or safeCAB
may be required to disclose your personal information to third
parties to provide the service you have requested. However,
the disclosure will only be made where it is necessary to
fulfil the purpose for which you disclosed your personal information.
Otherwise than stated above, we do not disclose personal information
that you may give us, such as your name, address, email address
or telephone number, to any organisation or person outside
safeCAB unless you have authorised us to do so. For example,
when you contribute to an online forum you may want to publish
your name and email address.
No sale of personal information
Under no circumstances will safeCAB sell or receive payment
for licensing or disclosing your personal information.
Access and correction: personal data
If safeCAB holds your personal information safeCAB will where
possible provide you with access to the information. safeCAB
will take reasonable steps to correct the information so that
it is accurate, complete and up to date.
Complaints about privacy
If you have any complaints relating to online privacy issues
on our websites, please notify safeCAB. While safeCAB accepts
no liability for any material or links posted to the service,
we will investigate all complaints.
Changes to safeCAB privacy policy
If we decide to change the safeCAB Privacy Policy, we will
post those changes here.
