We are very committed to the protection of your privacy online and accordingly, we take protective measures to protect the personal information provided to us by you. We also take further measures to comply with the relevant statement regarding what we can do with personal information we obtain from you.

We have notified our processing under the Data Protection Act 1998 and intend to comply with all our obligations under that Act. You hereby consent to our processing of your information. This privacy policy is not intended to, and does not, create any contractual or other legal rights or obligations on either your
or our part.

COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will generally let you know at the time of collection how we intend to use your personal information. Usually, we collect personal information about you which we require to respond to your inquiries for payment processing and for the provision of goods and services to you. We also process your personal information where we are required to do so by law, and for the exercise or defence of legal claims.

From time to time, we may contact you for research purposes, or to tell you about our special offers and other services in accordance with your contact preferences. Where appropriate, we will obtain your consent to do so. Personal information collected from you may include your name, payment processing information, postal address, email address, landline or mobile telephone number, delivery details as well as other non sensitive personal information. If you use our web sites, we may also collect information about you or your computer when you browse to allow you to use the services available.

We are taking and will endeavour to continue taking all reasonable steps in order to protect your personal information and data. However, we cannot guarantee the security of any personal information or data you disclose online, having regard to the nature of the Internet.

We may use encryption technology from time to time to assist in protecting any information or data which you submit. In any event, you accept the inherent security implications of disclosing information over the Internet and agree not to hold us responsible for any breach of security unless we have been negligent or willfully in default of our obligations under the relevant legislation.

At any time, if you are concerned that the information we hold about you is incorrect, please do not hesitate to contact us to correct such information.

Occasionally we may send you direct mail shots in respect of our events and services in the event that you have indicated upon registration or subsequently that you are interested in receiving such offers or information from the owners or operators of this site and/or our partners or associates. If you do not wish to receive any of these mailings, please tell us, indicating that you no longer wish to receive such offers at any time.

We recommend that in the event of any password protection, you do not divulge your password to anyone. In addition, you should always log off your computer or close your browser window when you have finished your work to ensure that others cannot access your personal information.

Safety and privacy rights are of concern to all. Although Monologueslam.com is a general audience web site, we require children under the age of 13 attempting to register with Monologueslam.com to ensure that a parent or guardian authorises any registration with us. In that event, we will obtain consent from such parent or guardian before we collect any registration information from a child we know to be under 13 years of age. Any such parent providing
consent will be entitled to access that child's personal information. The operators or owners of Monologueslam.com do not share personal information about users under the age of 13 with any third party, nor do we sell or rent any personal information about such users.
