Personally Identifiable Information
We will only collect and retain personally identifiable information
to the extent that it is strictly necessary for our purposes.
We will never wilfully share, sell or rent any personally identifiable
information about you or your business to any unaffiliated third
party without first receiving your permission.
Safeguarding Your Information
Safeguarding your information is a priority for us. We use
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to protect your data and
order information as it is being transmitted over the Internet.
SSL encrypts all your personal information, including your name,
address, credit card and other financial information.
Internally, access to databases where your personal information

permitted to handle your data. Access to your data is on an
as-needed basis only and complies with the spirit of this privacy
policy. Personnel user IDs and passwords control access to the
databases.
Outside Links
Our web site contains links to other web sites that we believe

not responsible for the privacy policies or actions of those other
web sites. They should have their own privacy policies, which
you should review before visiting them.

Children's Privacy Policy
The products and services offered on our web site are primarily
directed at businesses and individual adults. However, a small
number of products or hypertext links may be of interest to

It is not our policy to collect personally identifiable information
from children under the age of 13 (a "Child") and
we ask that they do not submit personally identifiable information
to us. If we become aware a Child has submitted personally identifiable
information to us, we shall immediately delete that information
and will not use it or disclose it to third parties.
If you are a minor, you may use our services only if your parent
or guardian indicates their consent by registering their personal
details with us [and accesses our web site on your behalf ].
If you are a parent or guardian of a minor who wishes to review
any personally identifiable information submitted by the minor,
please contact us at feedback@comag.co.uk. If the minor is a
Child, we will act as we have already said. If the minor is
not a Child, we will locate the personally identifiable information

the information if you request us to do so.
