Cookies

A cookie is a small file which is placed on the user's hard drive during a PrivyWhois.com visit. This file allows the user to move quickly and easily around our site. It is used to identify returning users and to identify subscribers and registrants (a registrant - and subscriber - will have the cookie linked to their e-mail address as a way of identifying them). This means that if you are a registrant or subscriber, you will not have to login each time you visit. We also use a cookie to track a user's sessions. We use this information to find out what site features are most popular so that we can develop PrivyWhois.com in the light of our analysis of people's usage. We also use cookies and the information we collect to show you relevant content.

You can delete cookies from your hard drive at any time. Unlike many sites, you will be able to use PrivyWhois.com even if you set your browser not to accept any cookies. However, certain features and content may not be available to you.

Security Policy

PrivyWhois.com has appropriate measures in place to ensure that users' personal details are not misused, accidentally destroyed, lost or altered within the server environment.

Occasions will arise when customer information is passed outside PrivyWhois.com to other data processors (e.g. fulfillment companies, database consultants etc.) but they will only act upon instruction from PrivyWhois.com in order to perform the services required.

Transfer of Personal Data Overseas

Given that the Internet is a global environment, using the Internet to collect and process personal data necessarily involves the transmission of data on an international basis.
