Information on Visitors
During the course of any visit to The Supernatural World, the pages you see,
along with something called a cookie, are downloaded to your computer. Most, if
not all, websites do this, because cookies allow the website publisher to do
useful things like find out whether the computer (and probably its user) has
visited the site before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and
finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.
Any information that is supplied by cookies can help us to provide you with a
better service and assists us to analyse the profile of our visitors.
What is a cookie ?
When you enter a site your computer will automatically be issued with a
cookie. Cookies are text files that identify your computer to our server.
Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual user, just the computer
used. Many sites do this whenever a user visits their site in order to track
traffic flows.
Cookies themselves only record those areas of the site that have been visited
by the computer in question, and for how long. Users have the opportunity to set
their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued,
or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means that
certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user.
Note: Even if you haven't set your computer to reject cookies you can still
browse our site anonymously until such time as you register for The Supernatural
World services.
Personal Information Collected
When you supply any personal information to The Supernatural World (e.g. for
news letters) we have legal obligations towards you in the way we deal with that
data. We must collect the information fairly, that is, we must explain how we
will use it and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else.
In general, any information you provide to the The Supernatural World will only
be used within the The Supernatural World and by its service providers. It will
never be supplied to anyone outside the The Supernatural World without first
obtaining your consent, unless we are obliged or permitted by law to disclose
it. Also, if you post or send offensive or inappropriate content anywhere on or
to The Supernatural World or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on The
Supernatural World, and the The Supernatural World considers such behaviour to
be serious and/or repeated, the The Supernatural World can use whatever
information that is available to it about you to stop such behaviour. This may
include informing relevant third parties such as your employer, school or e-mail
provider about the content and your behaviour.
