Privacy Policy

Welcome to Conjungo’s privacy policy. We have developed this policy as part of our ongoing commitment to protecting your privacy, while providing a valuable and personalised service. We want you to feel confident about the privacy and security of your personal information. This policy applies whether or not you choose to register for our services.

We collect personal information about you when you register with Conjungo and if you buy advertising products as a business.

When you register with Conjungo we ask you for details about yourself because we want to ensure that we give you a service that's tailored for you. We ask for as little information as possible in order to make it a quick and easy process. The information you give us isn't sold on to other companies and we have a serious and dedicated commitment to the security of your information.

Privacy sections are covered below:

Collected information

 

What information do I give you as a user/advertiser of Conjungo?

Registration - Advertiser

Registering your company details enable us to give you private access to details we might be holding for you, like supplier account information. We only collect the minimum information required to identify you and to ensure that we provide you with appropriate information. Details we collect may include:

• forename and surname;

• company name;

• company overview;

• company address;

• telephone number;

• email address;

• web address;

• product information;

Orders

When you order an advertisement or buy sponsorship on Conjungo we need to know a little bit about you. This enables us to process and fulfil your order, or contact you in case of a query. Details we may collect include:

• forename and surname;

• company name;

• company overview;

• position;

• company address;

• telephone number;

• email address;

• web address.

Why do you need my email address?

We need your email address to give you security. As a registered advertiser, you have to enter a password to access your Conjungo details-no one else can access it and if you forget your password, we can email it to you. We also use your email address to confirm your order details to you.

We might also use the information you've given us to bring you important news such as functionality changes to the Conjungo.com site or new services and special offers you might find valuable. This is only sent to users who have chosen to opt in when registering, and each time we email you, you can choose not to be sent any further messages from us. We'll also guarantee not to "Spam" you with annoying, irrelevant emails.

Registration - User

Our promise to you:

We categorically promise that by registering with us to access valuable content and supplier information, we will never release your details outside of Conjungo and Conjungo’s technology vendors/suppliers. The details of registered users who connect to suppliers and vendor/supplier content will only be accessed by the people they are intended for and will not, nor ever be in the public domain. Clearly if registered users wish to connect with suppliers then it’s only natural that those vendors/suppliers know who those registered users are.

 

Preferences:

By going to the preferences section within the Registration page you can control whether you get our monthly newsletter, whether you would like to receive up-to-date information on NEW technologies and products from manufacturers and whether you’d like to receive information from 3rd parties about their offers on technology.  You can also quickly and simply stop these contacts.

Stored information

 

Do you store information on my browsing activity, and can I be identified from it?

During your search session on Conjungo.com we will store the location you have requested. This is to enable you to search other types of business without having to re-enter the location every time. This information is only retained while you are searching and will not be kept once you have left Conjungo. We also collect anonymous information on your activity while logged into Conjungo such as:

• IP address;

• browser type;

• access times;

• referring URL.

There's no way you can be identified as a result of your browsing activity on Conjungo.

We only examine browsing activity to monitor aggregated site traffic and analyse it. This gives us information to help us improve the relevance of the services we offer you.

We may also provide anonymous statistics about users to reputable third party vendors, but these will not include details that would allow the recipient to identify you.

 

As an advertiser, do you store information on me?

Yes, but we only store information that we need to operate effectively, and it is stored securely in our main database.

How we use cookies

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a text-only string of information that a website transfers to the cookie file of the browser on your computer's hard disk so that the website can remember who you are.

A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and a value, usually a randomly generated unique number. Two types of cookies are used on this website-session cookie, which are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the site, and persistent cookies, which remain in the cookie file of your browser for much longer (though how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie).

Cookies can help a website to arrange content to match your preferred interests more quickly. Most major websites use cookies. Cookies cannot be used by themselves to identify you.

 

How do you use cookies and what information do you collect about me?

 

Session cookies

We use temporary/session cookies in the following ways:

• within Conjungo Search to store your locations during a search session;

• within registration to enable access to your details;

• within Conjungo Data to enable stored lists.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies are used on Conjungo.com in the following ways:

• to track aggregated usage and the number of unique, anonymous users;

• to manage advertisement serving and to ensure the same advert is not shown too frequently;

• within research surveys, to ensure you are not invited to complete a questionnaire too often or after you have already done so.

We do not link cookies to information you have provided during registration.

If you don't want a cookie to be created on your PC, web browsers like Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer provide the option to disable them. However, you might not be able to take advantage of the full functionality of our website if you do.

Sites linked to Conjungo may also use cookies. Please check the individual privacy policies of such sites to find out more.

 

How to manage the use of cookies on our website

You can manage the cookies in the cookie folder of your browser. You can either delete cookies from your cookie folder once you have left our site, or you can set your preferences before you enter our website.

Deleting or rejecting cookies may impair your experience of our website. You may not be able to access some pages or complete some transactions securely.

Disclosing information and consent

 

Will Conjungo disclose information about me to other parties?

Not unless it's necessary for the operation of the site. We may also disclose personal information if it is legally required, or to enforce our conditions of use and other agreements, or to protect and defend the rights, property or safety of Conjungo users or others.

 

Do you sell my details to other companies?

No, Conjungo does not sell user information to other companies. We may occasionally use the information we collect to send you details of offers or services that we think you might be interested in, but only if you've opted in during the registration process. These offers can be provided by a third party, but will always come from Conjungo. Each time we e-mail you, you can choose not to receive any further messages.

Security

 

Is my information secure?

Yes. We take the security of your personal data extremely seriously. We have implemented technology and security policies designed to protect the personal data under our control. We also follow strict security procedures as required by the UK Data Protection Act 1998. These cover the storage and disclosure of any information you've provided, and the prevention of unauthorised access.

Any credit card details you pass on to us are encrypted using a Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL is an industry standard for data encryption and is one of the best ways to ensure Internet messages are not intercepted. Older browsers can't use SSL, so you'll need Netscape Navigator 3, Microsoft Internet Explorer 3 or later versions of these browsers.

 

Can anybody else who's using Conjungo access my personal details?

No. All personal information given to Conjungo is secured and stored away from public access. Credit card information is encrypted before any transaction takes place.

Is my information available to any companies who partner with Conjungo to provide products or services?

Yes, Conjungo may use partners to ensure the effective operation of our site. These companies have access to your personal information under our strict supervision and within the requirements of the Data Protection Act.

User/Advertiser access

 

Can I access my user/advertiser information at any time?

Yes. If you want to look at or update your information, you can access all the details you provided us with when you registered. You can change or delete anything at any time.

Under the Data Protection Act 1998, you're also entitled to view any information we hold on you by paying a fee. Details on how to do this are available from us or from the Office of the Information Commissioner. If any information held is inaccurate, we'll make the necessary changes and contact you with confirmation.

 

Can I correct or change any user/advertiser details I've given to you? User - Yes. You can make changes to any of the information you gave us when you registered. Just access your details via the ‘User Login' link on the top right of the Conjungo home page and change your details as required.
