Privacy

 

Demand Sport is committed to protecting your privacy.

1. What this Privacy Policy covers

This privacy policy covers the treatment of personally identifiable information which is or has been collected when you visit Demand Sport

2. What personal information is collected by Demand Sport and when is it collected?

Demand Sport collects personal information when users register for the site as a whole or for particular services. Registration is voluntary. Demand Sport will also ask users for personal information when users enter competitions or apply for special offers, subscribe to products or affiliation schemes, take part in research via surveys, or submit emails.

Information requested will include contact details including name and e-mail address. If you contact Demand Sport, we may keep a record of that correspondence.

3. What are cookies and log files and how does Demand Sport use them?

Demand Sport also collects information from the site using "cookies" and "IP files".

Cookies

A cookie is a message given by a web browser (which displays your chosen webpages on your computer) to a web server (which delivers the web pages to your computer). The message is stored by your browser and will be used each time you access the site which the cookie relates to.

The main objective of the cookie is to identify users and to personalise their visit to the site by customising webpages (for example by welcoming a user to a site by name). For instance, if you accept a cookie on our site, you will not have to enter your password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If you reject the cookie, you can still use our site. The only drawback is that you may be limited to some areas of our site. For example, you may not be able to participate in certain competitions and promotions that take place. Cookies can also enable Demand Sport to track and target the interests of users to enhance their experience on our site.

In addition, Demand Sport allows some of its business partners (for example, advertisers and research companies) to use cookies on the site. Demand Sport has no access to or control over these cookies as they come from external sites; they are governed by the companies' privacy policies. Other companies do not have access to Demand Sport’s cookies.

Log Files

Demand Sport uses IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to analyse trends, administer the site, track users' movements, and to gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. All users to the Internet have an IP address, which enables networks connected to the Internet to transmit the data and messages submitted by users from one host to another and to ensure messages are understood. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information and therefore the information Demand Sport produces using IP addresses does not enable individual users to be identified.

4. How does Demand Sport use users' personal information?

Demand Sport will process the information that we collect from you and from your use of the site for the following purposes:

• provision of our services;
• administration of member and subscription records;
• to notify you about changes to our website and services;
• record-keeping for up to six years following termination of our services to you;
• administration of our competitions, promotions and special offers;
• technical maintenance;
• to inform you about services which we, our partners, customers and associated companies offer;
• to work with sponsors and promoters who wish to provide targeted messages to our users;
• to work with parties and sponsors on special offers, promotions and competitions;
• operation and enforcement of our terms and conditions and acceptable use policies (including with regard to our chat facilities, message boards and forums);
• to transfer our business to a purchaser;
• compliance with laws and applicable regulations and orders of courts and other competent tribunals; co-operation with the police or any other government body; investigation of claims that your use of our services infringes any right (including our intellectual property rights) or breaches any law, rule, regulation or order and disclosure of your contact details and usage details to the legal advisers of any person claiming that your use of our services infringes any right or breaches any law, rule, regulation or order;
• where further development of Demand Sport products takes place in future, to provide you with a service that more closely meets your personal needs and circumstances.

In addition, Demand Sport carries out research on user demographics, interests, and behaviour based on the information provided to us directly (for example on registration, during a promotion or during e-commerce transactions) or from log files. The aim of this is to better understand and serve users. This research is compiled and analysed on an aggregated basis and does not enable identification of individual users.

5. Does anyone other than Demand Sport collect information from the Demand Sport site?

Except as stated in this Privacy Policy or unless you are informed at the time of collection of information, only Demand Sport collects personal information from the site.

6. Does Demand Sport share user information?

Demand Sport will not sell or rent your personally identifiable information to anyone.

7. What are your choices regarding collection, use, and distribution of your personally identifiable information?

We will always either ask for your consent or give you the option to opt in to receiving offers or information from Demand Sport or its partners, either at registration or when we collect your information. Alternately you can opt out of receiving emails by selecting the opt-out button on all electronic communications Demand Sport will send.
