Privacy PolicyThis statement sets out Domain Management Services' policies relating to your personal information. It applies to your conduct on the Domain Management Services network of websites (the Network). These policies are in addition to Domain Management Services's general Terms of Use governing the Network and should be read in conjunction with such Terms of Use.
Please note that separate policies apply to the use of sites that
are available through the Network but are not operated by Domain Management Services
directly.
|
Domain Management Services recognises that your privacy
is very important to you and that you have a right to control your
personal information. We know that providing personal information is
an act of trust and we take that seriously. Unless you give us
explicit consent to act otherwise, the following policies will
govern how Domain Management Services handles your personal information and safeguards your privacy. |
Domain Management Services is committed to
protecting your personal information and giving you choice in who
can use your personal information and how it can be used. We believe
that our privacy policy represents industry best practice. Domain Management Services will comply with any
laws introduced to strengthen protections for consumers' privacy.
|
Domain Management Services will not collect or monitor any
personal information about you without your consent unless we
believe it is necessary:
- Because it is required by law.
- To provide you with a service which you have requested.
- To implement our terms of service.
- To protect the rights or property of Domain Management Services, any Domain Management Services
user, or any member of the public.
- To lessen a serious threat to a person's health or
safety.
You may provide Domain Management Services with information directly, such as
through subscribing to email lists or identifying yourself when
using particular services. The amount of information we collect
about you depends on how you use the sites on our Network. The only
personal information we collect is what you tell us about yourself,
for example by subscribing to the mailing list. This information
is not currently combined between different sites on the Network.
Domain Management Services uses cookies to help maximise your enjoyment of our
Network. Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify
users, although they do identify a user's browser. Please see
further information on how we use cookies below.
Domain Management Services intends to introduce a membership system that will give
you the option of enjoying enhanced services on our Network. Again,
any changes in how we use your personal information will only occur
with your consent.
Any further collection of your personal information than that
explained above will only occur with consent from you. Domain Management Services only
collects information from your use of our Network and not from other
organisations. |

Cookies are pieces of information that a website
transfers to your computer's hard disk for record-keeping purposes.
Most Web browsers are set to accept cookies. However, if you do not
wish to receive any cookies you may set your browser to refuse
cookies. In some instances this may mean you will not be able to
take full advantage of parts of the Network.
The use of cookies can enhance your enjoyment of what is offered
by Domain Management Services, because they can help personalise your experience of our
website. They can make it easier for you to shop online and can
ensure that information provided to you is most relevant to your
interests. Cookies can also provide us with aggregate information on
how people use our websites, and which advertisements are effective,
which helps us to keep improving our Network.
Cookies in and of themselves do not personally identify users,
although they do identify a user's browser. The cookies simply
operate as a unique identifier which help us to know what our
customers find interesting and useful on our website, almost like a
continuing questionnaire. We do not link this information back to
other information that you have provided to us. Domain Management Services does not
store any information inside cookies. |
Domain Management Services will not use or disclose any
information about you without your consent, or access your
communications on our websites, unless:
- Required by law.
- We believe it necessary to provide you with a service which
you have requested.
- To implement our terms of service.
- To protect the rights or property of Domain Management Services, any Domain Management Services
user, or any member of the public.
- To lessen a serious threat to a person's health or
safety.
Domain Management Services and its affiliates recognise the trust you place in us
when you give us personal information. We will not disclose your personal information to other companies without your explicit consent. |
We will not send you "spam" (advertising
information) without first asking you whether you wish to have
promotional information sent to you. If you are receiving
promotional information about Domain Management Services or its affiliates and do not
wish to receive this information any longer, you may remove your
name from our list either by visiting the website from which the
communication was sent and following the instructions on how to
withdraw your information from that site (where that facility is
available), or emailing us at privacy@DomainManagementServices.com and
asking to be removed from our mailing list. Please allow seven days
for this request to be processed. |
Domain Management Services will endeavour to take
all reasonable steps to keep secure any information which we hold
about you, and to keep this information accurate and up to date.
Your information is stored on secure servers that are protected in
controlled facilities. Where an Domain Management Services service is provided from
overseas, your folder is kept in secure databases and is protected by Domain Management Services's security policies. In
addition, our employees and data processors are obliged to respect
the confidentiality of any personal information held by Domain Management Services.
However, Domain Management Services will not be held responsible for events arising
from unauthorised access to your personal information.
You can also play an important role in keeping your personal
information secure, by maintaining the confidentiality of any
password and accounts used on the Domain Management Services website. Please notify us
immediately if there is any unauthorised use of your account by any
other Internet user or any other breach of security. |
Your trust in Domain Management Services is
very important to us. If at any time you want to know exactly what
personal information any part of our Network is holding about you,
you are welcome to request your folder by emailing us at privacy@DomainManagementServices.com. Our file of your information will be made available to you within seven days. |
If at any time you wish to
change personal information that is inaccurate or out of date,
please contact us by e-mailing us at privacy@DomainManagementServices.com and we will change this record. If you wish to have your personal
information deleted, please let us know in the same manner as
referred to above and we will take all reasonable steps to delete it
unless we need to keep it for legal reasons. |
Domain Management Services provides links to websites outside of the Domain Management Services service. These linked sites are not under the control of Domain Management Services, and we are not responsible for the conduct of companies linked to our website. Before disclosing your personal information on any other website, we advise you to examine the terms and conditions of using their websites. |
If Domain Management Services becomes aware of any
ongoing concerns or problems with sites on our Network, we will take
these issues seriously and work to address these concerns. If you
have any further queries relating to our privacy policy, or you have
a problem or complaint, please contact us at privacy@DomainManagementServices.com. |
|
Our commitment is to make Domain Management Services a leading Web network. That means that we are constantly adding new sites
and features to the Network. Because of this, from time to time, our
policies will be reviewed and may be revised. Domain Management Services reserves the
right to change its privacy policy at any time and notify you by
posting an updated version of the policy on its website. |
These principles apply generally to the
Domain Management Services Network. However, some Domain Management Services sites are operated jointly with other reputable organisations.
These sites may have special terms and conditions that differ from
these and may affect the handling of your personal information.
Please check these when using these sites. In a situation where
these privacy principles and the specific terms and conditions of a
Domain Management Services website differ, the specific terms will prevail. |
