Information on visitors

During the course of any visit to CRD, the pages you see, along with something called a cookie, are downloaded to your computer. Most, if not all, websites do this, because cookies allow the website publisher to do useful things like find out whether the computer (and probably its user) has visited the site before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit. Any information that is supplied by cookies can help us to provide you with a better service and assists us to analyse the profile of our visitors.

Data protection

When you supply any personal information to CRD, we have legal obligations towards you in the way we deal with that data. We must collect the information fairly – we must explain how we will use it and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else. In general, any information you provide to CRD will only be used by CRD. It will never be supplied to any other company without first obtaining your consent, unless we are obliged by law to disclose it. 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. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely.
