How does Tenders Direct protect customer information?
As required by the UK Data Protection Acts of 1984 and 1998, we follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we are able to disclose sensitive information to you.
What information do we collect? How do we use it?
- When you request information, we need to know your name, and e-mail address.
This allows us to process and fulfil your request.
- When you enter a contest or other promotional feature, we may ask for your name,
address and e-mail address so we can administer the contest and notify winners.
- We customise your use of the site by using the information you have requested to
shape our recommendations about the further information that might be of interest to you.
We also monitor customer traffic patterns and site usage to help us develop the design
and layout of the site.
