Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy governs the collection, use and disclosure of personal information on MySupermarkets.uk (the “Site“). Personal information is any information about an identifiable individual. This Policy outlines the type of information that the Site (“we” or “us”) gather about the user of this Site (“you” or “your”) while you are using this Site and how we use that information. Please read this Privacy Policy as, by using this Site, you agree that your use of this Site is governed by this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. We will reflect any such modifications to this privacy policy on this Site. Your continued used of this Site after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of this Privacy Policy, as revised.

Collection, Use and Sharing of Personal Information

We collect and store your e-mail address if you voluntarily supply it to us when you register, or if you subscribe to our email list. Your email address is stored at the email list server and can only be accessed by those who help manage those lists in order to deliver e-mails to those who signed-up to receive our material. This information is used to provide you with access to Site content, and to allow us to contact you with updates and newsletters (if you have indicated you would like to receive them).

Our website uses Google Analytics to analyse how users interact with the site. This is fairly standard practice amongst websites. It helps us keep track of the number of visitors to MySupermarkets and how to best serve them.  You can read more about Google Analytics at this link. 

We also use MailChimp as our mailing service to manage our email newsletter subscriptions. We share your email address and, if you provided your name to us, it will be shared with MailChimp. This allows us to send you personalised emails. We also use MailChimp to let us know how people interact with our emails – e.g. if/when they’re opened and what links are clicked. We use this information to try and improve our emails so they’re as useful as possible.

For full information about how any third party processes and handles information please refer to their respective privacy policy and terms.

If you believe any of the information that we hold (e.g. your email address) is incorrect you can contact us to let us know and we’ll make sure it’s up to date.

If you would like to delete your account and remove all personal data stored, please contact us.

Moreover, we collect and use data contained in log files or cookies which include: your Internet Protocol (IP) address, your Internet Service Provider (ISP), the browser you used, the time you visited this Site, and the pages you visited throughout this Site, such collection and use being a standard practice on almost every website. We use this information to better understand how visitors use the Site, and to improve the Site to better meet our visitors’ needs. The amount of information that is sent by your web browser depends upon the browser and settings you use.

Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser that enables the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. We use cookies to understand and save your preferences for future visits. In addition, because we use third-party advertisements to support this Site (ie: Google AdSense), DART cookies and web beacons may be used by them in order to deliver more relevant advertising.

We do not sell your personal information to any third parties. However, we do share some information with trusted third parties who assist us in operating this Site, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also disclose your personal information when we believe such release is necessary to comply with the law, enforce this Site’s policies, or protect ours or others’ rights, property, or safety. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses. We reserve the right to transfer personal information collected in the event that we merge with or are acquired by a third party. We may also disclose your personal information for any other purpose permitted by law or to which you consent.

Security safeguards

The security of the personal information you provide to us is very important to us. As such, we do our best to ensure your information remains secure, and we maintain technical and procedural safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information in question; however, you understand that there are inherent risks of providing information online. As such, by using this Site, you release us of any responsibility for any breach of security.

Please note that links to third-party websites and advertisers on this Site are not bound by this Privacy Policy. These third-party sites have separate and independent privacy policies that may be different from our own. We therefore have no responsibility or liability for the content and activities of these linked sites. As such, if you wish to know more about their privacy policies, please visit their websites and review their privacy policies.
