Privacy Policy

Seafish.org 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 the Seafish website are used either solely on a per session basis or to maintain user preferences.

When users enter the Seafish website their computers will automatically be issued with 'cookies'. Cookies are text files which identify users' computers to Seafish servers. The website then creates "session" cookies to store some of the preferences of users moving around the website, e.g. retaining a text-only preference. Cookies in themselves do not identify individual users, but identify only the computer used and they are deleted on departure from the website.

Many websites do this to track traffic flows, whenever users visit those websites. Seafish website uses third-party cookies to measure use of the website including number of visitors, how frequently pages are viewed, and the city and country of origin of users. This helps to determine what is popular and can influence future content and development.

For this purpose, Seafish uses Google Analytics to measure and analyse usage of the website. The information collected will include IP Address, pages visited, browser type and operating system. The data will not be used to identify any user personally.
Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user.

This privacy statement only covers the Seafish website at www.seafish.org. This statement does not cover links within this site to other websites.
