Privacy Policy

Personal Information
Penton Transport Management respects the privacy of individuals and does not collect or manage any personal data unless it has been provided to us voluntarily by the individual/company concerned. The only information that we collect and store automatically during normal website usage is typical web server log data.

Web server log data is not telling us who you are or revealing any other information of a personal nature. We use web server log data to generate statistics and measure site activity for the benefit of Penton Transport Managements website users. We use any data collected in order for us to be able to provide and improve this site and our services here. Unless stated otherwise, no personal or other data is shared with third parties.

Cookies
When you view this site, or any other site linked from this site, we may store some information on your computer in the form of a 'cookie' which allows us to tailor our website to better match your interests and preferences.

A cookie is a small text file which the site you are visiting saves on your computer. Cookies are used by many web sites to give visitors access to various functions. For example the information contained in the cookie can be used to monitor a user's surfing behaviour.

There are two types of cookies. The first saves a file for an extended period on your computer and is used, for example, with functions which describe what information is new since you last visited that particular site. The second type is known as a 'session cookie' which is stored temporarily in your computer's memory while your are visiting the site and surfing a page, and is used, for example, to determine what language you have chosen.

Session cookies are not stored in your computer for an extended period, but are deleted when you close your browser. Among other things, Penton Transport Management uses cookies to record visitor statistics and to enable the user to select a language option when searching for a particular service on our site.

You can set your computer to block cookies. However, this means that we cannot guarantee that all areas of our web site will function as intended. The procedure for blocking cookies will depend on what browser you are using but can be accessed by selecting the 'help' button on your browser toolbar.

Disclosure & our Legal Obligation
Except as otherwise stated, we may use information you provide via this site to improve the content, to customise the site to your preferences, to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for internal marketing and research purposes, and for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy. Please note, that we do not disclose any information you provide via the site to any third parties or any government departments except where such disclosures are necessary to fulfil our service obligations to you.

In cases where it is necessary for us to disclose any information to a third party, we will require such third parties to agree to treat any such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The release of any information you provide will only be undertaken when we are requested to by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations (for example to prevent or detect crime), and invariably only when you give us permission to do so.

Security
Penton Transport Management has a legal duty to protect the confidentiality of your information. We therefore confirm that we will take all reasonable steps to protect any information you submit via our website, both online and offline, in accordance with legislation such as the Data Protection Act 1998.

We will take all appropriate steps to protect your personally identifiable information as you transmit your information from your computer to our site and to protect such information for loss, misuse, and unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. We operate strict security standards to prevent any unauthorised access of any information we receive. However, you also have a responsibility to take reasonable steps to safeguard any information you transmit to us.

Please be aware that this Privacy Policy does not apply to those websites and we encourage you to read the Privacy Policy of every website you visit. We will post details of any changes to our Privacy Policy on this website to help ensure you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it, and in what circumstances (if any) we share it with other parties.
