Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on our website as enjoyable and rewarding as possible.
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how Feelgood Media collects information from all end users of Feelgood Media’s Internet services (the “Services”)—those who access some of our Services but do not have accounts (“Visitors”) as well as those who pay a monthly service fee to subscribe to the Service (“Subscribers”)—what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Subscribers have concerning the collection and use of such information. Feelgood Media requests that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.
1. What Personally Identifiable Information Does Feelgood Media Collect?
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to enhance our services to both our readers and advertisers. We collect personally identifiable information when you when you register on our site and when you subscribe for a print magazine or an e-mail newsletter. Our services including the viewing of our digital publication and viewing our media pack require registration as a condition of use. Once you register with one of our sites you are no longer anonymous to us.
2. What Anonymous Information Does Feelgood Media Collect?
Cookies
You do not need to have cookies turned on to visit our site. Cookies alone tell us nothing about who you are unless you specifically give us personally identifiable information when, in which case we use the information to enhance your services in the ways described below. You may elect not to allow cookies to be collected by adjusting your settings on your browser.
Web Bugs & Servers
We use technologies, including electronic images known as Web bugs -sometimes called transparent GIFs, clear GIFs, or beacons - that allow us to track general user traffic patterns. We also automatically receive and record information from our servers and from your browser, including your IP address, the time of your visit to pages on our site, and information about pages you visited. Unless you have registered for one of our products or services, the information we gather through the use of tracking technologies cannot be matched with any personally identifiable information about you unless you have specifically given us personally identifiable information, in which case we use the information to enhance your services in the ways described below.
We use cookies and tracking technologies in a variety of ways, including:
- Keeping count of return visits to our site or our advertisers' or partners' sites
- Accumulating and reporting anonymous, aggregate (data collected in mass), statistical information on Web site and advertisement usage
- Determining which features our overall user population likes best
- Saving your password so you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit our sites
- Display the most appropriate advertising based on your interests
Third-Party Advertisement Servers
Additionally, some of our advertisers use third-party companies to serve their advertisements on our sites and, in some cases, in our HTML-formatted newsletters. In both cases, these third-party advertising companies employ cookie and Web bug technologies to measure advertisement effectiveness. We do not give any personally identifiable information to them as part of this relationship. Unless you visit the website of these companies and provide them with personally identifiable information about yourself, these tracking technologies tell those advertisers nothing about who you are.
Our advertisers' use of tracking technology is subject to their own privacy policies.
3. How Does Feelgood Media Use The Information?
Feelgood Media uses the information we gather for four general purposes:
- To customise the advertising and content you see
- To enhance the user experience in our site. We use tracking information to determine how well each page performs overall based on aggregate user demographics and traffic patterns to those pages. This helps us continue to build a better service for you
- To fulfill your requests for certain products and services, such as sending out electronic newsletters and enabling users to participate in polls, contests and forums
- To send you information you agree to receive about topics we think will be of interest to you
4. Does Feelgood Media Share The Information?
Personally Identifiable Information Feelgood Media will on no accounts share your personal information with any third party. We are committed to protecting your privacy. We will only use the information that we collect about you lawfully (in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998).
5. What Are My Options?
Users who would rather not provide any of the user data requested by our registration process do not need to register with us. You can still view much of the content and use many of the services offered by our site without registering.
6. How Can I Update My Personally Identifiable Information?
You can check the information that we hold about you by emailing us. If you find any inaccuracies we will delete or correct it promptly. The personal information which we hold will be held securely in accordance with our privacy policy and the law governing data protection.
