This page explains how Pet Blood Bank uses any information you give to us, and the ways in which we protect your privacy.
1: Introduction
Pet Blood Bank UK ("[Company]") 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, such as registering your dog for a collection session. The information we collect is clearly set out on the web page on which we collect it. See for example our registration page. In addition, we may collect your IP address and use cookies unless you configure your web browser not to accept them.
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. We collect information to enable your dog to be registered as a blood donor.
4: Who we disclose it to
4.1 We will only pass on information about you as an individual (as opposed to aggregate information) to third parties to enable us to perform services requested by you or with your prior consent. 4.2 In certain circumstances we may need to disclose information about you if you breach this privacy policy or if you breach the Terms and Conditions. We may also disclose or access your account if required to do so by law or by any Governmental body. 4.4 We will not pass on information about you as an individual (as opposed to aggregate information) to any third parties overseas.
5: Data Protection
As a not-for-profit organisation Pet Blood Bank UK is exempt from registering with the Information Commissioner in the UK as a "data controller". Pet Blood Bank UK will always follow Data Protection procedures in accordance with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998. Further details of the registration are available at www.dpr.gov.uk.
6: 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.

Parts of www.petbloodbankuk.org are automatic and we may process your personal data as part of www.petbloodbankuk.org.
