Your trust is vital to us. Eumom.com respects your right to privacy and our Privacy Policy is designed to demonstrate and ensure that we are worthy of your trust. Eumom.com believes that greater protection of personal privacy on the web will not only protect consumers but also increase consumer confidence and ultimately their participation in on-line activities. By using the Site you are accepting the terms of this Privacy Policy Statement and the Terms and Conditions and Disclaimer. Please read it carefully.

2.2 The personal information you provide will be used to create a personal profile that will allow Eumom.com to give you customised information. It will also be used to better understand the interest and opinions of groups of people within the healthcare market (by aggregating the information), to tell you about services and products which may be of interest to you, and for statistical purposes. Your personal demographic information will be used to have a better understanding of our market and to tailor the content of this Site to your needs.

3. Registration with the site

Once you have registered with the Site, the Site can offer you much more personalised information, faster service and e-mail newsletters. You are under no obligation to register with the Site, but we recommend that you do so. Furthermore, you are free to cancel your registration at any stage. Upon notification at any time, Eumom.com will use reasonable endeavours to promptly amend, rectify or remove, whichever is applicable, your personal information.

4. Cookies

A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred from a website to the hard drive of a user's computer so that the website may identify a user and track his/her activities in the website. If you interact with certain parts of the Site, such as checking your due date, the Site will send a cookie to your hard drive. The cookie only recognises your computer and does not know or store any personal information about you. You may choose not to enable your cookies in your browser if your browser permits, although in that case you may incur problems within the Site.

5. Third parties

5.1 We will keep the information you provide to us in confidence. We will not sell or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party.

5.2 Any information about you obtained by Eumom.com through registration or use of the Service will be retained and used by Eumom.com for its own internal purposes (to include monitoring use of the Service, traffic management purposes, service upgrades etc) unless you have clicked on the opt-out box on the Registration Form. Eumom.com may also use any information obtained from you for purposes of marketing Eumom.com's and other party's products and services and the information may be supplied to any credit reference agency or bureau or where required by law to any governmental agency or body.

5.3 We will however collect and retain general information about all of your visits to the Site. We will analyse this information and aggregate the number of people who visit the Site, the number of people who return to the Site, the pages they visit, where they were before they came to the Site and the page on the Site from which they exited. This information helps Eumom.com to monitor traffic on the Site. It also helps Eumom.com to understand which parts of the Site are most popular, and generally to assess user behaviour and characteristics in order to measure interest in and the use of the various areas of the Site. This type of non-personal information and data can be collected through the standard operation of our internet servers and logs as well as cookies.

For example, we may be compelled under certain laws to disclose information to the government or third parties in certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Furthermore, you hereby authorise us to disclose any information about you to any government official as we, in our sole discretion, believe is necessary or appropriate in order to comply with law.
