Privacy Policy
Grove-UK.com - Privacy Policy
We are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors; this
policy sets out how we will treat your personal information.
(1) What information do we collect?
We may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal data:
(a) information about your visits to and use of this website;
(b) information about any transactions carried out between you and us on or
in relation to this website, including information relating to any purchases you
make of our goods or services;
(c) information that you provide to us for the purpose of registering with
us and/or subscribing to our website services and/or email notifications;
(2) Information about website visits
We may collect information about your computer and your visits to this website
such as your IP address, geographical location, browser type, referral source,
length of visit and number of page views. We may use this information in the
administration of this website, to improve the website's usability, and for
marketing purposes.
We use cookies on this website. A cookie is a text file sent by a web server
to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The text file is then sent back to
the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables
the web server to identify and track the web browser.
We may send a cookie which may be stored on by your browser on your
computer's hard drive. We may use the information we obtain from the cookie in
the administration of this website, to improve the website's usability and for
marketing purposes. We may also use that information to recognise your computer
when you visit our website, and to personalise our website for you. Our
advertisers may also send you cookies.
Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies. (For example, in
Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookie by clicking "Tools", "Internet
Options", "Privacy", and selecting "Block all cookies" using the sliding
selector.) This will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many
websites, including this one.
(3) Using your personal data
Personal data submitted on this website will be used for the purposes
specified in this privacy policy or in relevant parts of the website.
In addition to the uses identified elsewhere in this privacy policy, we may
use your personal information to:
(a) improve your browsing experience by personalising the website;
(b) send information (other than marketing communications) to you which we
think may be of interest to you by post or by email or similar technology;
(c) send to you marketing communications relating to our business which we think may be of
interest to you by post or, where you have specifically agreed to this, by email
or similar technology (you can inform us at any time if you no longer require
marketing communications to be sent by emailing us at info@grove-uk.com);
(d) provide other companies with statistical information about our users -
but this information will not be used to identify any individual user;
We will not without your express consent provide your personal information to
any third parties for the purpose of direct marketing.
(4) Other disclosures
In addition to the disclosures reasonably necessary for the purposes
identified elsewhere in this privacy policy, we may disclose information about
you:
(a) to the extent that we are required to do so by law;
(b) in connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal
proceedings;
(c) in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights (including
providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention and
reducing credit risk); and
(d) to the purchaser or seller (or prospective purchaser or seller) of any
business or asset which we are (or are contemplating) selling or
purchasing.
Except as provided in this privacy policy, we will not provide your
information to third parties.
(5) International data transfers
Information that we collect may be stored and processed in and transferred
between any of the countries in which we operate in order to enable us to use
the information in accordance with this privacy policy.
(6) Security of your personal data
We will take reasonable precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration
of your personal information. Of course, data transmission over the internet is
inherently insecure, and we cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the
internet.
We will store all the personal information you provide on secure
servers. All electronic transactions you make to or receive from us will be
encrypted.
You are responsible for keeping your password confidential. We will not ask
you for your password.

on our website. You should check this page occasionally to ensure you are happy
with any changes.
We may also notify you of changes to our privacy policy by email.
(8) Your rights
You may instruct us to provide you with any personal information we hold
about you. Provision of such information may be subject to the payment of a fee
(currently fixed at £10.00).
You may instruct us not to process your personal data for marketing
purposes. In practice, you will usually either expressly agree in advance to our
use of your personal data for marketing purposes, or we will provide you with an
opportunity to opt-out of the use of your personal data for marketing purposes.
You can also instruct us not to use your personal data for marketing purposes by
