Privacy Policy for The Vertex FM Website

Privacy Policy

This information that you provide about yourself to Vertex FM will only be used by Vertex FM in accordance with our Privacy Policy Statement (details of which are available here). The Privacy Policy Statement does not apply to Third Party Sites. The following is a summary of the various ways we treat the information you provide us while using the Sites (but is not an exhaustive list). Vertex FM does not collect personally identifying information except with your specific knowledge and consent. Sometimes you will provide us with data that doesn't reveal your personal identity. We use this sort of information for editorial marketing and promotion purposes and occasionally for other purposes but we don't connect it to any name, address or other identifying information. This way we can give you customised information without compromising your privacy. We will not share any of your personally identifying data for unconnected purposes with any other party without your explicit permission. A few special cases are worth noting: From time to time we may run competitions or request material we can publish; to participate, you must usually supply us with your identity, which you agree to have publicly associated with your submission. The exact rules vary from case to case, and will be noted clearly on the relevant pages. Your participation will always be voluntary and knowing. We may offer to send you information or updates from Vertex FM via e-mail or otherwise: obviously, signing up will put you on a special mailing list. You should be aware that any information you post in our public areas may be seen, collected and used by others, and may result in unsolicited messages from other users or parties. Alas, we can't control this; you post at your own risk. You may have read about "cookies", nuggets of information that are placed by a website in a storage place on your own computer. Vertex FM uses cookies to control the display of ads, to ensure that you don't see the same ad too many times in a single session, for example, and to track usage patterns on our Sites. Our cookies do not contain any personally identifying information. While using the Sites, you may notice that our advertisers occasionally serve you cookies, either directly or when you link to their sites. We cannot directly control what our advertisers or these cookies do, but it's our policy that advertisers on the Sites should use cookies the same way we do. Whilst your individual information is protected as outlined above, we reserve the right to use aggregated, anonymous data about our users as a group. For example, we might report to potential advertisers that a certain percentage of our users are interested in its products, based on information requests.
