About this privacy policy

This Privacy Policy outlines how Bulletpoint will manage your personal information and it also describes generally the sorts of personal information held and for what purposes, and how that information is collected, held, used and disclosed.

This Privacy Policy applies to all your dealings with Bulletpoint whether using the websites owned by Bulletpoint, in writing, in person, by telephone or by facsimile.

Collecting your personal information

It is intended that the websites owned by Bulletpoint can be used anonymously.  However, the types of personal information that Bulletpoint collects will depend in part on the nature of your dealings with us.  We may collect personal information from you when for example you wish to enter into contractual arrangements with us in which case we may collect details such as your name, address, credit/debit card number and expiry date, postal address, telephone numbers, date of birth and any other information that is commercially required by Bulletpoint for the purposes of entering into a contract with you.  However, Bulletpoint does not collect personal information that it does not need.

When you visit the website we may collect general information that will not personally identify you such as:

• internet browser;
• operating the system;
• date of visit;
• time of visit;
• path taken through the website.

This information alone does not identify any individual and Bulletpoint will not combine it with information that does identify you as an individual.  Such information merely provides statistics that Bulletpoint may use to analyse and improve the websites owned by Bulletpoint.

Our website may use “cookies” to gather statistical information. It will be possible for you to decline Bulletpoint cookies by adjusting the “accept cookies” setting on your browser, however, this may affect the functionality of the website on your browser.
