Privacy Policy
We want you to feel secure when visiting our site and are
committed to maintaining your privacy when doing so. This
Privacy Statement outlines how we may obtain and use any
personally identifiable information about you and the ways in
which we protect and treat such information that we collect when
you are on our site or when you use our services. This privacy
policy also applies to any personally identifiable information
about you that our business partners may share with us. This
policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do
not own or control or to people that we do not employ or manage.
Information Collection and Use
We may collect personally identifiable information when you
visit or use our web/other pages or documents. You will
generally be asked first before you provide any personally
identifiable information. We may also receive personally
identifiable information from our business partners but they
will be responsible for ensuring that any transfer of such
information is in accordance with your wishes. We may also
automatically receive and record information on our server logs
from your browser including your IP address, cookie information
and the page(s) you requested.
We may use this information to register your interest in any CIP

email addresses just as securely as other personal information
on our website. We will use email to reply to any email requests
you make or to contact you about outstanding orders or CIP

Sharing and Disclosure
CIP is registered under the data protection laws in the United
Kingdom and takes all reasonable care to prevent any
unauthorised access to your personal data. Other than as set out
below we will not pass your personally identifiable information
to anyone outside CIP. We will only send personally identifiable
information about you to other companies or individuals when:
- we have your consent for the disclosure or
- we need to share your information to provide a product or
service you have requested or
- we need to send the information to companies or individuals
who work on behalf of CIP or any subsidiary
CIP company's in connection with the provision of a product or

or individuals will be instructed to not use the personally
identifiable information we provide to them beyond what is
necessary to assist us in this purpose)
Security of your Personal Information
CIP is committed to protecting the security of your personal
information. We use a variety of security technologies and
procedures to help protect your personal information from
unauthorised access, use or disclosure. For example, we store
the personal information you provide in computer servers with
limited access that are located in controlled facilities. When
we transmit sensitive information (such as a credit card number)
over the internet, we protect it through the use of encryption,
such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. SSL is an
industry standard to ensure internet messages are not
intercepted. However, older browsers cannot use SSL and you will
need to use Netscape version 4.05 or Microsoft Internet Explorer
browsers, version 4 or later.
Cookies
When someone visits the site, a cookie is placed on the
customer's machine (if the customer accepts cookies) or is read
if the customer has visited the site previously. One use of
cookies is to assist in the collection of the site visitation
statistics. We also use cookies to collect information on which
newsletter, page and site links are clicked by customers. This
information is used to ensure we are sending information
customers want to read. It is collected in aggregate form and
never linked with your personal information.
Web beacons, also known as clear gif technology, or action tags,
may be used to assist in delivering the cookie on our site. This
technology tells us how many visitors clicked on key elements
(such as links or graphics) on a web page. We do not use this
technology to access your personally identifiable information,
it is a tool we use to compile aggregated statistics about our
web site usage. We may share aggregated site statistics with
partner companies but do not allow other companies to place
clear gifs on our sites.
