• the types of information that we may collect from you when you access or use thewebsite https://www.cleanlinks.co.uk (the “Website”), the Cleanlinks mobile application (the “Mobile App”) and our other online services (collectively, our "Services"); and

• our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting and disclosing that information.

This policy applies only to information we collect through our Services and in the electronic communications sent through or in connection with our Services.

 

The definitions of the terms in this Privacy Policy have been referred by the Terms and Conditions of the CleanLinksWebsite and Mobile App.

 

CleanLinks strives to offer its visitors and Users the many advantages of Internet technology and to provide an interactive and personalized experience. For these purposes, we, from CleanLinks, may use personally identifiable information – like your name, e-mail address, address, telephone number, etc., which are subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy. We, and we suppose you too, do not tolerate spam. We will therefore never sell, barter, or rent your email address to any unauthorized third parties.

 

  1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT FROM OUR USERS?

 

CleanLinks may collect and use information of and regarding its Users. The information, through which the person may be identified, may include data, which the User voluntarily enters, uses or provides when using the Services of the Website and Mobile AppCleanLinks, or submits when creating a User Account. Cleanlinks collects and uses the information for the purposes, outlined in the Terms and Conditions, as well as to offer new services to the User or to familiarize him with new functionalities on the Website and Mobile App.

 

We collect two types of information from and about our Users, including information:

 

• by which you may be personally identified; and/or

• about your internet connection, the equipment you use to access our Services and your usage details (i.e. your Internet Service Provider).

The information we collect on or through our Services may include:

  1. User Account information: Your full name, email address and other information you may provide with your account, such as your address, mobile phone number and Website and Mobile App, place of work and position that may be displayed as a part of your User Account;

 

  1. Preferences: Your preferences and settings such as time zone and language;
  1. Your Content: Information you provide through our Services

This could include, without limitation, any information that you have made public through a given social media account of yours.

 

  1. HOW WE GATHER INFORMATION FROM USERS?

 

How we collect and store information depends on the pages you are visiting, the activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For example, you may be asked to provide information when you register for access to certain portions of our Website and Mobile App, create a User account, request certain features, such as e-mail newsletters or when you make a payment. Like most websites, Cleanlinks also collects information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors and Users. For example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider or use “cookies” technology to recognize you and hold information from your visit (for more information, please view our separate Cookie Policy). Among other things, the cookies may store your username and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may control the number of times you encounter a particular part of the Website and Mobile App. As we use additional technologies, we may also gather information through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies.

 

  1. WHAT WE DO WITH THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT?

 

Like other websites, we collect information to enhance your visit and deliver more individualized content. We respect your privacy and do not share your information with anyone, except in cases when that proves necessary.

 

Aggregate information and information that does not personally identify you, may be used in many ways. For example, Cleanlinks may combine information about your usage patterns on the Website and Mobile App with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and Services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited the most or what features Users find the most attractive). This information does not include any information about you and does not allow anyone to identify you individually. We may use personally identifiable information, collected on the Website and Mobile App, to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences; our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; services and products offered by or through the Website and Mobile App; and other topics we think you might find of interest. Personally identifiable information collected by Cleanlinks may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to Website and Mobile App administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions and other communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our Website and Mobile App – our Web hosting service for example – may have access to such information. We will use your information only as permitted by law. We may also disclose your information in response to a court order, at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do so by the applicable law, in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law enforcement authorities, whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary. Please note we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.

All payment card transactions made through the Stripe interface and are processed using a secure online payment gateway (Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology) that encrypts your card details in a secure hosting environment. We do not hold your payment card details on the Cleanlinks Services Limited server.

 

  1. REVIEWING, CHANGING OR DELETING INFORMATION

 

If you would like to review, change or delete personal data we have collected from you or you had submitted or permanently delete your account, please contact us. We will be happy to provide you with all the information we hold for you and amend it accordingly, should it not be accurate and up to date.

  1. SECURITY: HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION?

We have also implemented appropriate measures in the form of various technical, physical and other means, including, but not limited to measures regarding the security of our electronic systems and databases, locks, racks, cases and other devices and access controlling systems, fire-notifying and fire extinguishing systems.  We have also implemented an SSL encryption so that sensitive booking information, for instance, is processed with due care. These aim at improving the integrity and security of the personal information that we collect and maintain. However, please be advised that even the best security measures cannot guarantee the full elimination of all risks. If we learn of any violation, breach or danger to our security systems breach, then we will attempt to notify you electronically so that timely and appropriate protective steps can be taken. Apart from informing you via e-mail, we may post a notice through the Website and Mobile App if a security breach occurs.

Other Users may be able to identify you, or associate you with your account, if you include your personal information in any content you post or make publicly available.

Some tips to help make a child’s online experience safer: Teach kids never to give personal information, unless supervised by a parent or responsible adult.

Know how your child’s information is treated.
