5. Access to your personal information
1. Introduction
This policy covers the T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd use of personal information
that is collected when you use greenbag.ie. The policy
also gives you information about cookies; T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd and
third parties' use of cookies; and how you may reject such
cookies.
From time to time, you will be asked to submit personal
information about yourself (e.g. name and email address)
in order to receive or use services on our website. Such
services include newsletters, software and document download
and greenbag.ie support services.
By entering your details in the fields requested, you enable
T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd and its service providers to provide you with
the services you select. Whenever you provide such personal
information, we will treat that information in accordance
with this policy. When using your personal information T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd will act in accordance with current legislation
and aim to meet current Internet best practice.
2. Visitor Information
During the course of any visit to greenbag.ie, the pages
you see, along with a short text file called a 'cookie',
are downloaded to your computer. Many websites do this,
because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things
like find out whether the computer (and probably its user)
has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat
visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there
on the last visit.
Information supplied by cookies can help us to provide you
with a better online user experience and assist us to analyse
the profile of our visitors. A services provider may gather
non-personal information regarding the visitors to our website
on our behalf using cookies, log file data and code which
is embedded on our website. T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd uses this type
of information, as with that obtained from other cookies
used on the site, to help it improve the services to its
users.
3. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes
an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser
from a website's computer and stored on your computer's
hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your
browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to
protect your privacy) your browser only permits a web site
to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the
cookies sent to you by other sites.
Many sites do this whenever a user visits their website
in order to track online traffic flows.
Cookies record information about your online preferences.
Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept
all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or
not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of
course, means that certain personalised services cannot
then be provided to that user and accordingly you may not
be able to take full advantage of all of the features. Each
browser is different, so check the "Help" menu
of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
If you have set your computer to reject cookies you can
still browse greenbag.ie anonymously until such time
as you wish to register for greenbag.ie services.
4. Use and storage of your personal information
When you supply any personal information to greenbag.ie
we have legal obligations towards you in the way we use
those data. We must collect the information fairly, that
is, we must explain how we will use it (see the notices
on particular webpages that let you know why we are requesting
the information) and tell you if we want to pass the information
on to anyone else.
In general, any information you provide to T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd
will only be used within the company and by its agents and
service providers. Your information will be disclosed where
we are obliged or permitted by law. Also, if you post or
send offensive, inappropriate or objectionable content anywhere
on or to T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd or otherwise engage in any disruptive
behaviour on greenbag.ie, then T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd can use
whatever information that is available to it about you to
stop such behaviour. This may involve informing relevant
third parties such as your employer, e-mail/Internet provider
and law enforcement agencies about the content and your
behaviour.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for
as long as you use the service you have requested, and remove
it in the event that the purpose has been met, or, in the
case of T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd registration you no longer wish to
continue your registration.
Where personal information is held for people who are not
yet, that information will be held as long as is necessary
to ensure that the service is run smoothly. We will ensure
that all personal information supplied is held securely,
in accordance with the Data Protection Acts 1988 & 2003.
We will not contact you for promotional purposes, such as
notifying you of improvements to the service or new services
on greenbag.ie unless you specifically agree to be contacted
for such purposes at the time you submit your information
on the site, or at a later time if you sign up specifically
to receive such promotional information.
5. Access to your personal information
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information
that T.S.O'Connor & Son Ltd holds about you and to have any inaccuracies
corrected. (We charge €6.35 for information requests.)
Please address requests for the attention of the Data Protection
Officer via email: greenbag@greenbag.ie
