Thank you for taking the time to view our web site policies.
We take privacy and security very seriously - this is reflected in everything we do.
Cookies
We do not use cookies on the Augmetix web site, unless you utilise the following features:
- Rating a news article

Session cookies are used in order to enhance the security of the web site, however, these are not stored beyond your current browsing session. (more information)
Third-party Cookies

We do not use Google analytics, or any other system which allows a company to build a profile of a user across a multitude of web sites. (more information)
What we store about you
Our web server logs every request, referer and IP address. This is the default behaviour of the vast majority of web servers. Everything else is only what you give us specifically, for example, in the comments and contact sections.
What we do with your data
We use the data only for the purposes which you give it, and we never disclose your data to third-parties. We reserve the right to contact you if you give your contact details in a section other than specifically designated as "contact us".
Off-site links
We have a number of links which navigate away from the Augmetix web site. It is your responsibility to know the difference, and we can make no guarantees about the content served from other web sites.
Social Media
The Augmetix web site has a feature which helps you share our content via external social media sites. These are used at the discretion of the individual, and their use is governed by the policies of the social media site in question.
Boilerplate
Users of the Augmetix website do so at their own discretion and provide any personal details at their own risk. This information is kept private and stored securely until a time it is no longer required or has no use, as detailed in the UK Data Protection Act 1998.
