Cookies and website logging

This website will send a “cookie,” a small text file, to your computer. This allows us to recognise your computer the next time you visit, without bothering you with another request to register. Also, if you use an online “shopping cart”, cookies allow us to keep track of the products you purchase. If you do not wish to receive cookies, please refer to the “Help” file of your Internet Browser to learn how to either block all cookies or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. To learn more about cookies we encourage you to visit http://www.cookiecentral.com. If you visit our website to browse, read or download information, we collect and store some “visitor information” from you, such as the name of the domain and host from which you access the Internet, the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computer you are using, the date and time you accessed our website, and the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to our website. We use this information to measure the traffic on our website and to help us make our website more useful. We delete this information after the qualifying period of non-account activity at the prevailing time.

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Sharing information

Why should you share your personal data with The Falconry School?

Sharing your personally identifiable information enables us to offer you a number of benefits. You may choose to share your information online with us in a number of ways, such as completing a registration form, ordering a product, participating in a promotion, or subscribing to a newsletter. If you would prefer that your personal data, not directly provided by yourself, was not used for any purpose or activity outside The Falconry School transactions, please notify us at the address provided on the website.

Who we share your data with

The Falconry School will only share your data with third parties outside The Falconry School in the following circumstances:

Your personal data may be shared with other companies in order to conclude an order. We will always let you know that such relationship exists and who these companies are prior to your registration. Note that these companies often have their own privacy policies relating to the way they use your personal data. These privacy policies may differ from the The Falconry School Privacy Policy.

The Falconry School sometimes uses outside companies for handling your purchase or request, or for processing your order. The Falconry School requires these companies to adequately safeguard your personal data and not use your data for any other purpose not authorised by The Falconry School.

The Falconry School may sell its business to another company. Such transfer of ownership could include the transfer of your personal data directly related to that business to the buyer.

The Falconry School will release personally identifiable information if compelled by law.

The Falconry School will not sell or provide your personal data to other third parties allowing them to use your personal data for their own purposes.

The Falconry School will not share any personal financial information you provide (such as credit card information) with other parties unless this is needed to handle your order, process the invoice, or prevent or combat fraud.

From time to time, this website may provide links to other websites. You should carefully review the privacy policies on those sites; they may differ from the The Falconry School Privacy Policy.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Your contact information

You can find our address in the ‘Contact Us ‘ page contained within this website. If you have a problem with our use of your information, please let us know and we will make all reasonable efforts to correct it.

Additional information

Special information for parents

We would strongly recommend that parents take an active role in supervising the online activity of their children.

Safeguarding the information you share with us

We recognise our responsibility to protect the information you entrust to us. The Falconry School uses a variety of secure techniques to protect your information, including secure servers, firewalls and encryption of financial data.
