Privacy Policy:
The Spitalfields Society ("Spitalfields Society") operates spitalfieldssociety.org and may operate other websites. It is Spitalfields Society's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Spitalfields Society collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Spitalfields Society's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Spitalfields Society's visitors use its website. From time to time, Spitalfields Society may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Spitalfields Society also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on spitalfieldssociety.org blogs/sites. Spitalfields Society only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Spitalfields Society's websites choose to interact with Spitalfields Society in ways that require Spitalfields Society to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Spitalfields Society gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at spitalfieldssociety.org to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Spitalfields Society are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Spitalfields Society collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Spitalfields Society. Spitalfields Society does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
Spitalfields Society may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Spitalfields Society may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Spitalfields Society does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.
Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Spitalfields Society discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Spitalfields Society's behalf or to provide services available at Spitalfields Society's websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Spitalfields Society's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Spitalfields Society will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Spitalfields Society discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Spitalfields Society believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Spitalfields Society, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Spitalfields Society website and have supplied your email address, Spitalfields Society may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Spitalfields Society and our products. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Spitalfields Society takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
