How we use cookies and similar technologies:

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added. You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the Website.

Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We may use cookies to monitor usage of the Website and to create a personal record of when you visit the Website and what pages you view so that we may serve you more effectively. We may also use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve the Website in order to tailor it to our customers’ needs.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

We may use web beacons on the Website from time to time. Web beacons or clear .gifs are small pieces of code placed on a web page to monitor the behaviour and collect data about the visitors viewing a web page. For example, web beacons can be used to count the users who visit a web page or to deliver a cookie to the browser of a visitor viewing that page.

Information collected by cookies and similar technologies are generally treated as non-personal information except that under some local laws of certain IP addresses (or similar identifiers) they are considered personal information.

Communicating with you

We may contact you directly or through a third party service provider regarding products or services that you have signed up for or purchased from us, such as necessary to deliver transactional or services related communications. We may also contact you with offers we think you will find valuable if you give us consent, or where allowed on the basis of legitimate interests. You do not need to provide consent as a condition to purchase our goods or services. The following are the methods of contact we may use to contact you:

• Email
• Text (SMS) messages
• Telephone calls
• Other online messaging services

If you wish to discontinue receiving marketing and/or non-transactional e-mails from us, you may do so by using an “unsubscribe” link in these emails. We would like to emphasize that this provision does not apply to transactional emails related to your business relationship with us.
We will however continue to use your Personal Information for the limited purpose of sending you important notices about information related to your purchases and changes to our policies and agreements, or for other reasons permitted by applicable law.

Disclosure of your personal information to third parties

We may share your personal information with our affiliated companies within our corporate family, with third parties with whom we have partnered to allow you to integrate their services into our own services, and with trusted third party service providers as necessary for them to perform services on our behalf. Where your personal information is provided to these third parties to enable them to perform their agreed activities, they are required to use the personal information provided only for the service they supply.

We only provide personal information to third parties if we consider that the third party can comply with the standards in our Privacy Policy.

Other than the above, we will not disclose your personal information without your consent unless disclosure is either necessary to prevent a threat to life or health, authorised or required by law, reasonably necessary to enforce the law or necessary to investigate a suspected unlawful activity.

Security

We store your personal information in different ways, including in paper and in electronic form. The security and protection of your personal information is important to us. We take all reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is stored safely to protect it from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, including the use of electronic and physical security measures.

The time we store your personal information varies depending on the product or service that we provide to you or to someone you know. If we no longer need your personal information for the purpose of which it was obtained, we will take all reasonable steps to destroy the information and ensure the information is de-identified.

Webuild is a global organisation so the information provided to us may be transferred or accessed in other countries around the world. In addition, if you utilise our products or services from a country other than the country where our servers are located, your communications with us may result in transferring your personal data across international borders.

No information transmitted over the Internet can be fully guaranteed to be secure. We cannot guarantee the security of any information that you transmit to us, or receive from us. The transmission and exchange of information is carried out at your own risk. Although we take all reasonable measures to safeguard against unauthorised disclosures of information, we cannot guarantee that any personally identifiable information that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.
