User anonymity and personal information
Log files are maintained and analysed of all requests for files on this website’s web servers. Log files do not capture personal information but do capture the user’s IP address, which is automatically recognised by our web servers.
Aggregated analysis of these log files is used to monitor website usage. These analyses may be made to available to Moogaloo staff and partner agencies to allow them to measure, for example, overall popularity of the site and typical user paths through the site.
Except as stated already, Moogaloo will make no attempt to identify individual users. You should be aware, however, that access to web pages will generally create log entries in the systems of your ISP or network service provider. These entities may be in a position to identify the client computer equipment used to access a page. Such monitoring would be done by the provider of network services and is beyond the responsibility or control of Moogaloo.
Moogaloo will make no attempt to track or identify individual users, except where there is a reasonable suspicion that unauthorised access to systems is being attempted or abusive content is being left within our site. In the case of all users, Moogaloo reserves the right to attempt to identify and track any individual who is reasonably suspected of trying to gain unauthorised access to computer systems or resources operating as part of Moogaloo web services or abusive content is being left within our site.
As a condition of use of this site, all users must give permission for Moogaloo to use its access logs to attempt to track users who are reasonably suspected of gaining, or attempting to gain, unauthorised access.
All log file information collected by Moogaloo is kept secure and no access to raw log files is given to any third party.
Use of cookies
This website does not store any information that would, on its own, allow us to identify individual users of this service without their permission. Any cookies that may be used by this website are used either solely on a per session basis or to maintain user preferences. Cookies are not shared with any third parties.
- __utma, __utmb, __utmc, __utmz : Google Analytics We use Google Analytics to monitor traffic levels, search queries and visits to this website. Google Analytics stores IP address anonamously on its servers in the US, and neither Moogaloo or Google associate your IP address with any personally identifiable information. These cookies enable Google to determine whether you are a return visitor to the site, and to track the pages that you visit during your session.
- exp_last_visit, exp_tracker, exp_last_activity : ExpressionEngine This site runs on the ExpressionEngine CMS. ExpressionEngine uses cookies to track a users session, when they last visited or did something on the site. No personal information is stored in these cookies, only timestamps related to that browser session.
- exp_anon, exp_notify_me, exp_save_info, exp_my_name, exp_my_email, exp_my_url : ExpressionEngine These are related purely to the comments section of the blog. When a user leaves a comment, they are given the option to have the browser remember their personal details - this is purely optional. Choosing to do so creates cookies that store this info in your browser session. Choosing not to remember your data sets just 2 cookies (exp_notify_me and exp_save_info) that remember this preference.
- exp_hits : DevDemon Hits Module for ExpressionEngine This is a cookie that allows us to track how many unique visitors have openned any particular blog or article on our site. It helps us understand what is popular, how social media affects the sharing of blogs and (hopefully) write better, more interesting content. This cookie does not store any personal information beyond the browsers session ID so as to ensure it only tracks unique visitors.
Protection and Confidentiality
Some services on this website require us to collect personal information from you. To comply with the Data Protection Act, we have a duty to tell you how we store the information we collect and how it is used.
Any information you do submit will be stored securely and will never be passed on or sold to any third party. Specifically this will include names and contact details submitted through our site via the contact form and our email newsletter sign up form - these will only be used for the purposes they were submitted to meet and not forwarded on to others outside Moogaloo without your permission.
