In general, you can visit our web site without providing us with any personal information. However, there are instances where we must have your personal information in order for us to grant you access to our protected and secured sites.
We operate mechanisms to ensure compliance with core fair information practice principles. Among our enforcement approaches are industry self-regulation, compliance with legislation that helps create privacy remedies for you should you have a concern about your data and regulatory measures enforceable through civil and criminal sanctions under the Data Protection Act 1998.
