Introduction
Beamish Museum takes your privacy seriously. This privacy policy describes how and why we obtain, store and process data which can identify you. We may update this policy from time to time and shall indicate on the web site when changes have been made.
2 The Information we collect
Information is collected from you when you register with us, or when you contribute to or use some of the advanced features on the site. The information we collect is clearly set out on the web page on which we collect it. See for example our registration page and checkout pages. In addition, we may collect your IP address and use cookies, which is required only for the shopping basket and not for tracking.
3 Why we collect it
We collect information about you so that we can personalise your use of the site, assist your use of the site and improve the site generally.
4 Security
Keeping information about you secure is very important to us and certain sections of the site may encrypt data using SSL or a comparable standard. However, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be totally secure. As a result, whilst we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information which you send to us, and you do so at your own risk.
5 Automated decisions
Parts of www.collectionsonline.com and our billing process (which is transacted via Protx) are automatic and we may process your personal data as part of the billing process.
6 Accessing and updating your personal information
We will always let you have a copy of personal information we have about you, should you request it, and you may correct it if you wish. You can do this from the checkout when logged in.
7 Questions?
If you have any questions or complaints relating to this Privacy Policy or how we use the personal information we have about you, please contact media@beamish.org.uk. We will endeavour to respond to you promptly.
