Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Oliver White collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Oliver White’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how visitors use its website. From time to time, Oliver White may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, eg., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Oliver White also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Oliver White only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Oliver White’s websites choose to interact with Oliver White in ways that require Oliver White to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Oliver White gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive updates via email, we collect their email addresses. In each case, Oliver White collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with the website. Olver White does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Oliver White discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organisations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Oliver White’s behalf or to provide services available at Oliver White’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organisations may be located outside of your home country; by using Oliver White’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Oliver White will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.

Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organisations, as described above, Oliver White discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Oliver White believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Oliver White, third parties or the public at large.
