Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it. By clicking on the “I accept” button, you agree to us using your data as follows.

 

INFORMATION WE MAY COLLECT FROM YOU


We may collect and process the following data about you:

 

  • Information that you provide by filling in forms on our site www.speedyswimming.co.uk (our site). This includes information provided at the time of registering to use our site, subscribing to our service, posting material or requesting further services. We may also ask you for information when you enter a competition or promotion and when you report a problem with our site.

  • If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence.

  • We may also ask you to complete surveys that we use for research purposes, although you do not have to respond to them.

  • Details of your visits to our site including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data, whether this is required for our own billing purposes or otherwise and the resources that you access.

 

IP ADDRESSES AND COOKIES
 

We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.
 

For the same reason, we may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie file which is stored on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. They help us to improve our site and to deliver a better and more personalised service. They enable us:

 

  • To estimate our audience size and usage pattern.

  • To store information about your preferences, and so allow us to customise our site according to your individual interests.

  • To speed up your searches.

  • To recognise you when you return to our site.

 

The following types of cookie may be used during your visit to our site:-

 

  • Session cookies that are deleted after each visit.

  • Persistent cookies are valid across visits and, for example, are used to avoid the need to tell us your country of residence at the start of each visit.

  • Email cookies which are set on your computer by an email from us, but are accessed by our site when you use our site.

  • Third party cookies that are used by our partners, for example, to help us measure site visitors.

 

By clicking on the “I accept” button you are consenting to us using cookies during your visit to our site.
 

You may at any stage refuse to accept cookies by activating the setting on your browser which allows you to refuse the setting of cookies. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our site. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you log on to our site.
 

Please note that our advertisers and people who link to our site may also use cookies, over which we have no control and accept no liability.

 

WHERE WE STORE YOUR PERSONAL DATA
 

The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”). By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
 

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
 

USES MADE OF THE INFORMATION
 

We use information held about you in the following ways:

 

  • To send you our newsletters from time to time.

  • To ensure that content from our site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.

  • To provide you with information, products or services that you request from us or which we feel may interest you, where you have consented to be contacted for such purposes.

  • To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and us.

  • To allow you to participate in interactive features of our service, when you choose to do so.

  • To notify you about changes to our service.

  • To request your views about our service.

 

We may share your data with third parties to the extent that they are helping us to provide our service to you.
 

We may also use your data, or permit selected third parties to use your data, to provide you with information about goods and services which may be of interest to you and we or they may contact you about these by post or telephone. If you do not wish us to use your data in this way, please email us at speedyswimming@gmail.com to opt out of such communications.
 

Finally, we may provide advertisers with aggregate information about our users (for example, we may inform them that 500 men aged under 30 have clicked on their advertisement on any given day). We may also use such aggregate information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target (for example, women in SW1). We may make use of the personal data we have collected from you to enable us to comply with our advertisers’ wishes by displaying their advertisement to that target audience.
 

Not with standing the above we will not disclose any sensitive personal data (such as medical details) to any third party, other than to a member of our group or any third party who is considering purchasing our shares or business and assets and who will be subject to a confidentiality agreement.

 

DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION
 

We may disclose your personal information to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 736 of the UK Companies Act 1985.
 

We may disclose your personal information to third parties:

 

  • In the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets.

  • If any company within our group or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case it may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such company or business or assets. If we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our Terms of Use or terms and conditions of membership and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us or any of our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

 

YOUR RIGHTS
 

You have the right to ask us not to process your personal data for marketing purposes. We will usually inform you (before collecting your data) if we intend to use your data for such purposes or if we intend to disclose your information to any third party for such purposes. You can exercise your right to prevent such processing by contacting us at speedyswimming@gmail.com.

If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies.

CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY

 

GDPR Changes May 2018

 

Data protection laws are changing in May 2018

 

We'd love for you to keep in touch with Speedy Swimming



To ensure you continue receiving information from Speedy Swimming please give your consent at: https://www.speedyswimming.co.uk/subscribe-to-speedy-swimming

A new data protection law comes into force on 25th May 2018. It affects how any company, including Speedy Swimming, can communicate with you.

This means that we now need to ask all new and existing clients on our mailing lists if you still want to hear from us.

If you don’t do anything then, under the new regulations, we will have to assume that you have chosen to ‘opt out’ – that is, you wish to stop receiving communications from Speedy Swimming.

If you would like to keep hearing from Speedy Swimming, you will need to complete the online form listed above or email clearly confirming what information you would like to receive. 

Any changes we may make to our privacy policy in the future will be posted on this page and, where appropriate, notified to you by e-mail.

Questions, comments and requests regarding this privacy policy are welcomed and should be addressed to speedyswimming@gmail.com.
