It also allows us to provide targeted offers and services you may be interested to hear about.</p> <h2>Who we are</h2> <p>Look To The Stars Limited, Company Number GB07665476, United Kingdom.</p> <p>In the event that we sell our business, customer information may be one of the transferred business assets. If this happens, your information will still be subject to this policy.</p> <h2>Cookies and IP Addresses</h2> <p>When you visit one of our websites, we may send you a cookie. A cookie is a small file which is placed on your computer or device.</p> <h3>Essential Cookies</h3> <p>These cookies are essential for the running of our websites. Without the use of these cookies parts of our websites would not function. For example, we use cookies to help us identify which of our readers have a subscription in order to access paid for content held on the website.</p> <h3>Analytical Performance Cookies</h3> <p>We use these types of cookies to monitor our websites performance and how their users may use it. These cookies provide us with information that helps us provide better products to their users and also to identify any areas that may need maintenance. For example, we may use performance cookies on our website to provide the most popular news articles further up the page of the website.</p> <h3>Functional Cookies</h3> <p>Functional cookies are used to remember your preferences on our websites. This can be anything from remembering your city to saving your username.</p> <h3>Behavioural Advertising Cookies/Third Party Cookies</h3> <p>We, and our advertisers/sponsors, may use cookies to provide tailored advertising to you which we believe are relevant to you. Online behavioural advertising is a way of providing advertisements on the websites you visit and making them more relevant to your interests. This is done by grouping together shared interests based upon previous web browsing activity. Advertising is then displayed to you when you visit a website which matches these interests.</p> <p>Behavioural advertising is based upon your web browsing activity over a period of time - so it's different to advertising you may see when you're looking for something online using a search engine (e.g. Google) or on the website you may be visiting at a particular time. As an example, you may be doing research in order to buy a bicycle and read a number of different articles on a number of different websites. If a bicycle manufacturer was part of an advertising network, they may think that you are interested in buying a bicycle and serve you with one of their adverts for one of their bicycles. It is possible that from reading these articles elsewhere, you would see this advert on one of our or someone else's websites. We cannot control nor do we have access to any cookies placed on your computer by third party advertisers and sponsors. We may also track IP addresses.</p> <h3>How to control the use of cookies</h3> <p>You are not obliged to accept cookies and may modify your browser so that it will not accept cookies. The browser you use to surf the web not only allows you to see the cookies that you have got but also allows you to control their use. You can control them by allowing them, deleting them individually or deleting all of them. You can also set your browser to not accept cookies altogether. If this option is selected, you should be aware that many websites will not function properly or at all. It may be possible to set your browser to not accept cookies and ask for your consent before each cookie is set on your device. This gives you control over what is set on your device, however has the drawback of slowing down your browsing experience.</p> <p>There are different levels of control too. You are able to prevent just third party cookies being deployed, effectively opting out of behavioural advertising, and some even allow you to block specific companies you do not wish to deploy a cookie, instead of selecting all companies.</p> <p>In order to manage your cookies, please follow the instructions provided by your browser supplier for your PC or device.</p> <h2>How can I prevent Online Behavioural Advertising?</h2> <p>Further to using your browser to controlling the use of cookies, there are also other ways that you can opt out of Online Behavioural Advertising.</p> <p>The "Your Online Choices" page provided by the <a href="http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices">Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB)</a>, provides an easy way to opt out of behavioural advertising from each (or all) of the networks represented by the IAB.</p> <p>Our behavioural advertising partners include Google/Doubleclick, and you can view their privacy policies and opt out on "Your Online Choices".</p> <h2>Flash Cookies</h2> <p>When you use one of our websites that uses Macromedia Flash Player, a small Flash Cookie may be used.

Web beacons on web pages or email communications allow us to see how successful an article may be or that an email message was successfully delivered and read.</p> <p>Tracked URLs will count the amount of clicks on a web page. This allows us to edit the site according to the popularity of the articles you read.</p> <p>You can't decline web beacons.

All of our marketing communications will have a method to unsubscribe. You may also exercise your right to opt out of the use of your information for marketing purposes at any time by contacting us by one of the methods explained at the end of this notice.</p> <p>Please note: Many products or services include personalised communications as part of their package; users will be given the opportunity to control the receipt wherever possible. In the event that the product or service consists entirely of communication (e.g editorial bulletins) this may take the form of unsubscribing from the specific communication.</p> <p>If you purchase or redeem an offer with us, we may need to disclose your personal information to our partners, suppliers and subcontractors in order to process your order, fulfil deliveries, complete billing and invoicing transactions and to inform delivery and logistics planning.</p> <p>We may supply personal data to trusted suppliers for analysis purposes. This will be done under agreement with us and will be in line with this policy.</p> <p>We will work with other companies for promotional purposes where readers may be asked to opt in for future contact from that specific partner. With your permission we will transfer that customer data to the third party at which point it will fall under their own privacy and security controls. Members of Look to the Stars cannot be held liable for subsequent issues arising from third party usage of transferred data.</p> <h2>Disclosure</h2> <p>Your personal information will be disclosed where we are obliged or permitted by law to do so. If you post or send offensive or objectionable content anywhere on or to any of our websites or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on any of our websites, we can use the information that is available to us about you to stop such behaviour. This may involve informing relevant third parties such as your employer and law enforcement agencies about the content and your behaviour.</p> <h2>Payment and credit checks</h2> <p>Customer data will be used to take payment for products and services and may be used to verify credit details related to this payment. Permission to do so is implicit in providing financial details to process payment. Direct Debit information may be retained for ease of renewal of services.</p> <p>If you apply for credit then to help us to make credit decisions about you, to prevent fraud, to check your identity and to prevent money laundering, we may search the files of credit reference agencies who will record any credit searches on your file. We may also disclose details of how you conduct your account to such agencies. The information will be used by other credit grantors for making credit decisions about you and the people with whom you are financially associated for fraud prevention, money laundering prevention and occasionally for tracing debtors.</p> <h2>Updating or deleting your personal information profile</h2> <p>When you register online with our website, you can see, review and change your personal information by logging onto the website and going to "My Profile" or equivalent.
