Privacy Policy

Here at Rawpoint.com Limited (“Rawpoint.com", "we" or "us"), we take your privacy seriously. We're committed to protecting the privacy of all the personal information you give us. We will comply with the UK's Data Protection Act 1998 and any other applicable data protection legislation.

We have a philosophy about the way we use your consent to be contacted (if you give us that consent). If you hear from us, we will always aim to be respectful, relevant and appropriate. If at any time you don't feel we've lived up to our philosophy, please let us know straight away by getting in touch.

Please take the time to read this privacy policy carefully, which is part of our terms of use.

By using the Rawpoint.com site, you are agreeing to be bound by the Ts and Cs.

This policy explains how we collect, use and store the personal information you provide to us. 'Personal information' is information which identifies you or another person or is capable of doing so.

This policy may change from time to time and, if it does, an up-to-date version will be available on the Rawpoint.com site. By continuing to use the Rawpoint.com site you are agreeing to any updated versions.

What information do we collect?

When you sign up with us as a registered user of www.Rawpoint.com, you automatically register to receive email newsletters from us, we'll collect some basic details from you. By registering or signing up with us, you'll be agreeing that your personal information can be used and disclosed as set out in this policy.

When you register, we may ask you for your:

• Username
• Password
• Email address
• First name
• Last name
• Date of birth
  

If you want to tell us a bit more about yourself, we'd love to hear even more.

• Postal code
• Photograph for certain business use
  
• Relationship status
• Website address
• Any other information you want to share

Our main purpose for collecting this data is to provide you with a better user experience and a more relevant and more useful service from Rawpoint.com.

Will we use your information for marketing?

When you register, we'll clearly state that we may like to get in touch with you by post, phone and electronic mail about offers, promotions, products or services which we think will interest you. By giving us your details on registration, you'll be agreeing to this. However, if you'd prefer we don't contact you for this purpose, please let us know by ticking the first box at the point of registration and we won't contact you for this purpose. Even if, at the time when you register with us, you do not log an objection to us contacting you for marketing, you can always change your mind. You always have the right, at any time, to object to us using your personal information for marketing purposes - just contact us at the contact details set out at the bottom of this privacy policy.

Other Rawpoint companies or divisions may also like to get in touch by post, phone and electronic mail about special offers, promotions, products and services which they think will interest you. Again, by giving us your details on registration, you'll be agreeing to our sharing your information with them and to their contacting you. However, if you'd prefer we don't share your information with them for this purpose, please let us know by ticking the second box as indicated at the point of registration and we will respect your wishes. Again, you can always change your mind in the future. Even after you have registered with us, you can object at any time to us sharing your details with the other Rawpoint companies for marketing purposes — just contact us at the contact details set out at the bottom of this privacy policy. At any point, you can also request that any Rawpoint company stops sending you marketing — just contact them using their details set out in the Contact Us part of this site.

If you're registering specifically to receive certain information from us, we'll take this as your consent to receive that information (even if you do tick the box).

How else will we use your information?

We may also use your information for the following purposes:

• Where reasonably necessary, to help provide services to you.
• To send you specific information, if you've requested it or to carry out your other specific requests.
• To carry out surveys — ultimately we want to ensure that www.Rawpoint.com provides everything that you — our audience — is looking for.
• To comply with the law.
• As we feel is necessary to prevent illegal activity or to protect our interests.

We will not keep your personal information for longer than is reasonably necessary or required by law.

Will we share your information with anyone else?

Only if…

• You specifically request this, such as when you submit information to enquire about jobs or submit a job or other applications through www.Rawpoint.com
• We are required to do so to comply with the law and with the directions of the courts or other authorities
• We feel it is reasonably necessary to prevent illegal activity or to protect the interests of the Rawpoint brand or any if it’s Companies.
• Other Rawpoint companies products and services may interest you — unless of course you object to this (see above)
• It helps our trusted third party service providers to provide and improve our service to you or to carry out surveys and user analysis to understand your needs and preferences. We'd require these service providers who are processing your personal information to keep it safe and secure (e.g. make them sign up to a contract and employ reasonable technical and organisational controls to keep your personal information secure.) These trusted third parties would only be permitted to use your personal information for the purposes we specify.

We won't rent or sell our user's details to any other organisation or individual.

We are obliged by our legal people to state that neither Rawpoint.com nor any other Rawpoint company will be liable to you or to any third party for any loss or damage resulting from any User Content posted on the Rawpoint.com site.

If you have any concerns about external content appearing on this site, please Contact Us.

How will we make sure our site is secure?

We follow strict security procedures as to how your personal information is stored and used, and who sees it, to help stop any unauthorised person getting hold of it. All personal information you register on this site will be scrambled using 128-bit encryption. We take security extremely seriously but as no system is 100% secure, we can't completely guarantee the protection of your personal information, any more than any other organisation can. So we can't accept any liability for the loss, theft or misuse of the personal information which you've registered on this website if there is a security breach.

Will we be transferring any personal information outside the EU?

Countries outside the European Union may have a lower standard of protection for personal information than that required by EU data protection laws. If we need to transfer your data to a company based outside the EU (e.g. if our hosting company is based in the US), we'll take steps to make sure your personal data is handled in line with EU law.
