Web Site Privacy Policy
General Statement
Clips And Bits have a sincere regard for individuals privacy. Any mailings from Clips And Bits
are done so on an 'opt-in' basis and are targeted only at those individuals whom have elected to receive
such information or where the same relates to the contract between us. The rest of the privacy statement
details what information we capture about visits to the site, and what we do with it.
Information Captured
Information captured about visitors to the site falls into two distinct categories, i.e. Personal
Information, such as e-mail, postal and IP addresses, telephone numbers etc, and non-personal information
from which a visitor can not be identified such as information about the operating system being used, the
browser, etc.
Personal Information may be captured when a visitor orders or downloads a product from the web
site or when a visitor explicitly sends us this information through an e-mail or contact form. This
information may be used to perform our relevant obligations, if applicable, and/or to send out promotional
materials but only on a carefully selected (and only where visitors have authorised us to do the same) basis.
Personal Information will never knowingly be gathered or used without the knowledge of the site visitor.
Personal Information is never made available to any third party without the express permission of the
individual concerned.
Non-Personal Information such as the visitors' operating systems, browsers, etc, is collected in
the form of a standard W3C log file. This information is transmitted to the web server as part of the
HTTP header. We may use this information to analyse the performance of our web site, to obtain statistics
about browser and Operating System (OS) usages, etc. Such information may be made available to third
parties and/or the general public in aggregate form only. It is not possible to trace any individual
visitor or any Personal Information from Non-Personal Information.
Cookies
A 'Cookie' is a small text file that is placed on a user's machine when they request a web page.
Cookies are often used to provide the visitor with a more personal browsing experience and to maintain
'Session State', for example an ID number for a shopping basket. This site uses Active Server Pages (ASP),
which may use Cookies to maintain Session State, and we may choose to utilise Cookies for other purposes
also. Where possible, we always ensure that the Cookies we use expire immediately on exiting the web site.

that if you disable cookies, certain services on this website may not be available to you and your enjoyment
of this website may be impaired.
Internet-based transfers
Given that the Internet is a global environment, using the Internet to collect and process personal
data necessarily involves the transmission of data on an international basis. Therefore, where you have
authorised us to use your data you acknowledge and agree to our processing of personal data in this way.
