The information we collect and why we use it
We may monitor user traffic patterns and site usage by collecting anonymous information from server log files.

From time to time you may be asked to submit personal information about yourself (e.g. name, job title and contact details) in order to receive or use our services. We use this information to respond to your enquiries and requests for further information.

We have legal obligations, under the Data Protection Act 1998, to collect any personal information that you provide to us fairly.
