Use of IP Addresses
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a set of numbers that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you log on to your internet service provider or through your organisation's local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Web servers automatically identify your computer by the IP address assigned to it during your session online.
Black Isle Group Ltd, or third party companies acting on behalf of Black Isle Group Ltd, may collect IP addresses for the purposes of systems administration and to audit the use of our site. We do not ordinarily link a user's IP address to personally identifiable information of that user, which means each user's session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to us. However, we may use IP addresses to identify users of our site when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with the site's terms of use, or to protect our service, site or other users.
How we protect your personal information
Black Isle Group Ltd is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. Black Isle Group Ltd uses a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, we store the personal information you provide to Black Isle Group Ltd on computer servers with limited access that are located in controlled facilities. While we cannot guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration to data will not occur, we make every commercially reasonable effort to prevent such unfortunate occurrences.
Sharing Personally Identifiable Information with Third Parties
Black Isle Group Ltd will not sell or rent personally identifiable information to any third party for any purpose. Sometimes selected third parties are however used to provide Black Isle Group Ltd with support services in connection with its web sites and such parties may, from time to time, have access to your information to enable them to provide those services to Black Isle Group Ltd. Please rest assured that all companies providing such support services are required by Black Isle Group Ltd to meet the same standards of data protection as Black Isle Group Ltd and are prohibited from using the information for their own marketing purposes.
In certain special cases, we may disclose your personally identifiable information in the following circumstances:
when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to you, or otherwise injuring or interfering with Black Isle Group Ltd's rights, property or operations, other users of this site, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities; or
when we believe the law requires it, or in response to any demand by law enforcement authorities in connection with a criminal investigation, or civil or administrative authorities in connection with a pending civil case or administrative investigation.
