Smart Arse Designs is committed to respecting
our users’ privacy and security. However, we do
collect and use various bits of information about you
through your use of the site, to enhance your enjoyment
of the Smart Arse Designs service:
1. Personal Data - (names and addresses etc) through which
it is possible to identify you. You will always know when
this data is being collected and it will only be used
for the specific purposes to which you have consented.
2. Aggregated Statistical Data - all other non-personal
information that relates purely to generic statistics
such as traffic flow and demographics. It is not possible
to identify you through this data.
Personal Data
Smart Arse Designs will only collect, use and transfer your
Personal Data if you have consented to that collection,
use and transfer, except in circumstances where it is
necessary to conform to legal requirements; protect and
defend our rights or property; or to protect the interests
of other users.
This data is collected through Registration
Forms. On submitting the Registration Forms you give your
consent to Smart Arse Designs:
• collecting the information that
is on the Registration Form, and information about your
movements around and use of the site and other Smart
Arse Designs owned or managed sites;
• using that information to contact
you with relevant material, for example about your use
or potential use of the site and other Smart Arse Designs
owned or managed sites.
• transferring that information
to other Smart Arse Designs companies (subsidiaries or affiliates),
and to those Smart Arse Designs companies contacting you
with other relevant material, for example about your use
or potential use of other Smart Arse Designs owned or managed
sites.
• transferring the information
to ’Smart Arse Design's site partner if the site is
one which Smart Arse Designs publishes and manages for a
third party partner (e.g. a club or organisation), and
to that partner contacting you with other relevant material.
By checking other boxes on the Registration Form, or giving
your specific consent at other times, you can additionally
choose to have your Personal Data passed on to specially
selected Third Parties that Smart Arse Designs believes
will be able to supply you with useful information, and
for those Third Parties to contact you with relevant marketing
material.
On occasion we may collect Personal Data
in other ways – e.g. through competition entry forms
or other occasional services. Unless you have consented
otherwise by having already submitted a Smart Arse Designs
Registration Form, we will only use that data to contact
you about that particular service, unless we indicate
otherwise.
Aggregated Data
Other non-personal information will be collected and used
by Smart Arse Designs and may be transferred to third parties.
Any such statistical or demographic information will not
include personal details through which you could be identified.
In addition to non-personal information given on your
Registration Form, information is automatically collected
about traffic around the site. This is also only used
in aggregate form and no individual user will be identified.

The banner adverts you see on the site are served to the
