What personal information do we collect?
We collect information on our users in two ways: through cookies, and through registration.
The minimum information we need to register a user is an email address, a password and a country. Unless stated, all registration questions are compulsory. We also ask some further, voluntary questions so we can gain a clearer understanding of our users. They also enable us to personalise services for our users.
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe, efficient, and personalised experience. We only collect personal information about you that we consider necessary for this purpose.
We collect different types of information about our users
How do we use cookies?
During the course of any visit to Sport4me.com, the pages you see, along with a short text file called a 'cookie', are downloaded to your computer. Many websites do this, because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the computer (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.
Our authentication process uses a 128-bit encrypted cookie which stores your session details. If you choose to not accept our cookies this authentication process will not function. In this case, you can only visit the site as a guest and many of the features will be disabled.
The Help menu on the menu bar of most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies altogether.
If you do elect to turn cookies on, remember to log out when you finish using a shared computer.
How secure is my information?
We invest in high-quality security and do our utmost to protect user privacy. UK Data Protection Legislation means we follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access.
Sport4me.com follows the relevant legal requirements and we will ensure that NO third parties will see the information that you provide to us. However, we are not responsible for any breach of security that is caused as a result of you passing on your access details to others.
Please note that we reserve the right to access and disclose individually identifiable information to comply with applicable laws and lawful government requests, to operate our systems properly and to protect both ourselves and our users.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you use the service you have requested, and remove it in the event that the purpose has been met, or, you no longer wish to continue your registration as a member of Sport4Me.com. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personally identifiable customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorised access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when you finish using a shared computer.
You are responsible for all actions taken with your User ID and password, including those actions that result in fees being charged to your account.
