This publicly available information can include details of your domain name and IP address, operating system, browser type and version. We do not relate this to your personal details

5. Our site uses cookies. A "cookie" is a small piece of information which a web server can store temporarily on your computer via your web browser. This is useful to you because your web browser can remember some specific information which our web server can later retrieve. For instance the Global Furniture web site uses cookies to keep track of your shopping cart.

Any cookie generated by our web site will automatically expire when you close your browser or if you haven't looked at your shopping cart in the past hour. There is absolutely no way a cookie can be used by our web server to gain access to any private information about you or your computer system.

Most web browsers are set to accept cookies automatically, but you can change this setting. See your web browser's "help topics" to learn how to change the setting. You can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, and you will then receive a warning message with each cookie. Or you can refuse cookies altogether by turning them off in your browser. However, you will need to have cookies turned on to use our on-line ordering system.

6. We endeavour to take all reasonable steps to protect your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee the security of any data you disclose on-line. You accept the inherent security risks of providing information and dealing on-line over the Internet and will not hold us responsible for any breach of security unless this is due to our negligence or wilful default.

7. You have the right to see personal data (as defined in the Data Protection Act) that we keep about you, upon receipt of a written request and payment of a fee. If you are concerned that any of the information we hold on you is incorrect please contact us.

8. Please be aware that our site may link to other web sites which may be accessed through our site. We are not responsible for the data policies or procedures or the content of these linked web sites.
