Investor Publishing Ltd collects different types of information about our users for three main reasons:

• To help us to monitor and improve the services we offer
• To provide personalised services unique to individual users
• To use anonymous details about our users to sell appropriate advertising space on the site. This might mean showing an advertiser how many users we have on the site; it does not mean sharing an individual's details with an advertiser. Where we collect registration information from an individual, we will never share that individual's information with a third party, including an advertiser, without that user's explicit permission.

We are absolutely committed to protecting your privacy. Our policy can be summarised in one sentence: we will not share your information with other others without your prior consent.
We collect information on our users as follows: through cookies, through registration and where you choose to disclose data in postings. We will not pass on any individual user details (including your email address) for third party use unless we have your prior consent.
We always ensure that all employees and contractors we use in connection with the running of the website and services are subject to strict contractual obligations. They are only able to process data on our behalf and in accordance with our principles and instructions and not for any other independent purpose.
We will share anonymous aggregate statistics about our users, sales and traffic patterns with our advertisers.
