What information do we collect when you visit our site?
|
When you connect to our website, our Internet Service Provider (ISP) makes a record only of the fact of your connection. This record does not contain any information that identifies you personally or gives details on your use of the site.
In particular, the CDF does not use 'cookies' to get information on you or your use of our site. A 'cookie' is a file that could be placed on your hard drive by our website without your knowledge to allow it to monitor how the site is used.
Information from ISP logs will only be disclosed if the CDF is required by law to do so.

What happens if you send us an e-mail?
|
We will record your email address or other personal details only if you send us a message. Any message sent to us by you, whether by paper or electronically, will become part of the records of the CDF, but may be destroyed without reference to you.
Your personal details will be used only for the purposes for which you tell us they can be used, or to contact you to respond to your needs and enquiries. They will not be added to a marketing mailing list. We will not disclose your personal details to any other third party unless we obtain your prior consent or we are required by law to do so.
If you are submitting personal or other information over the internet, please note that, while all attempts are made to ensure security of the information transmitted to this site, there is a possibility that information you send could be seen by a third party while it is in transit.

What if I don't want to provide my personal details to you?
|
You may choose to interact with us anonymously. You may also choose to only provide some of the information we require. However, this may affect the amount of help or assistance we can provide you. If you do not provide your personal details to us, we may not be able to us to respond to your needs and enquiries. For instance, if you want a receipt for taxation purposes, we will need your personal information in order to produce a receipt. Where possible, we will provide assistance to people who choose not to provide their personal information.
