Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 29th July 2020

By using this site, you consent to the terms of our privacy policy for the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for the purposes set out below. We do not collect, use or disclose your personal information for any purpose other than those identified below, except with your consent or as required by law.

We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant service, or as long as it is set out in any relevant contract you hold with Make My Website (this is a database that defines which documents should be kept and for how long). In the case that you wish to cancel your account services with Make My Website, once an account is deleted a red flag goes on the database and, while people cannot use the personal information, it stays on the system for a period of one year for administration purposes before being deleted automatically. Where you contribute content to Make My Website we will generally only keep your content for as long as is reasonably required for the purpose(s) for which it was submitted.

Make My Website does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or non-affiliated companies except to provide products or services you’ve requested when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances

We provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with Make My Website under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your personal information to help Make My Website deliver enhanced services to communicate with you about new products or services from Make My Website. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information.

We transfer information about you if Make My Website is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, Make My Website will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy. 

Make My Website does not provide any personal information to any advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.

A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer or mobile phone (referred to here as a “device”) browser from a website’s computer and is stored on your device’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Many sites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online flows.

Cookies record information about your online preferences and allow us to tailor the websites to your interests. Users have the opportunity to set their devices to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user and accordingly you may not be able to take full advantage of all of the Make My Website features.

During the course of any visit to the Make My Website, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your device. Many websites do this because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like finding out whether the device (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.

Information supplied by cookies can help us to analyze the profile of our visitors and help us to provide you with better user experience. If on a previous visit you went to our services pages, we might find this out from your cookie and highlight certain service information on your second and subsequent visits.

Make My Website gather information regarding the visitors to Make My Website sites on our behalf using cookies, log file data and code which is embedded on our website. Make My Website uses this to help improve the services we provide to our users. Make My Website strictly require that third parties do not use any information for their own business or other purposes. Certain other areas of the Make My Website may use cookies for a specific reason – for example, to help an online element work effectively on your device.

Make My Website won’t contact you for marketing purposes, or promote new services to you unless you specifically agree to be contacted for these purposes.

This privacy policy may be updated from time to time so you may wish to check it each time you submit personal information through Make My Website. The date of the most recent revisions will appear on this page.

The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have any questions about security on our Website, you can Contact Us via the contact form.

Should you have other questions or concerns about these privacy policies, please Contact Us via the contact form.
