We care about your privacy. It is very important to us and we respect your concerns about maintaining it. This statement tells you how and why we use your information. We encourage you to take the time to read this policy and those of any Web site you visit.
Your choice
We believe that as a visitor to this site you are best able to determine whether, and under what conditions, you should provide personal information and if we should share such information with anyone else. At all points where personal information is required, a statement is provided explaining how this information will be used and why it is being collected. If you do not want your information to be used in any of the ways listed, you may opt-out by ticking the boxes provided on your registration screen.
You have the right to expect reasonable steps to be taken to protect personal information from un-authorised use.
Personal information collected
We would like to hold details about you to send you further information about birds and nature conservation if you choose to receive such information. We may also ask you to take part in confidential market research. If you prefer that your details are not used in any of these ways, please tick the box associated with your personal information.
Personal information will not be disclosed to any third party without your consent, unless required by law. When registering, you must agree to a 'data protection' statement and a 'data use' statement.

Accuracy of information
While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information supplied on this website, we cannot be held responsible for any errors or omissions, and we make no warranties, representations or undertakings about its content or the content of any other web site referred to or accessed by hypertext link. Images and geographic designations employed on this system and its outputs do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of participating organisations concerning the legal status of any country, territory or area, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.
You can visit most portions of our web site without telling us who you are and without revealing any personal information. The only information we collect from a typical web site visit does not identify you. Rather, it is the name of your Internet Service Provider (ISP), the browser and type of machine you are using, the web site that referred you to us, the pages you request and the date and time you request them. We use this information to generate statistics and measure site activity to improve the usefulness of the site to our visitors.
We do not sell or otherwise disclose such user information outside of the participating organisations.
Children under 14
In any section of our site that requests personal information, visitors under 14 years of age are reminded to obtain permission from an adult before supplying the requested information. Without prior parental consent, we will not collect personally identifiable off-line contact information, will not distribute to third parties any personally identifiable information, and will not publicly post or otherwise distribute personally identifiable contact information. We will not entice children by the prospect of a special game, prize or other activity, to divulge more information than is needed to participate in the activity.
If you would like your details to be removed from the system, please contact the system administrator (Contact Us) and request a copy of your data and removal from the system.
