We are committed to protecting your privacy

Chatsum works by tracking your use of the Internet via either a Firefox Extension or Dashboard Widget. Whilst Chatsum is active, every website you visit in your browser and any comments you post will be associated with your user details in our database.

You can disable tracking by closing the Chatsum sidebar in Firefox or closing the Dashboard Widget.

This privacy policy covers our use of any data we gather.

1. We will deal with your personal data in compliance with the current UK data protection legislation. Please note this applies only to Chatsum, not to other companies’ or organisations’ websites to which we link. Personal data will be collected, processed and used by Chatsum for the purposes of providing Chatsum services and products to you and the other purposes mentioned below.

3. We may use personal data to let you know about products and services, including those of third parties that may be of particular interest to you.

4. Because the Internet’s infrastructure is global, the information you provide may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (”EEA”) to countries that do not have similar data protection legislation. By submitting your information you consent to these transfers.

5. Unless otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, data relating to you will not be disclosed to any third party unless you have specifically given your consent. We will not rent or sell your personal information.

6. Chatsum may disclose your personal data acting in good faith if it believes such action is necessary: to conform with a legal requirement or comply with the legal process, protect and defend the rights or property of Chatsum, enforce this online agreement or to protect the interests of its users.

7. We use cookies (information stored by your browser) to track information on the pages read by visitors to our site to improve the content and offerings on our Website. Although we do not identify individuals from this information, once you choose to furnish the Website with personally identifiable information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie. Cookies can be disabled on your computer, but this may limit the experience that our website is able to offer.

8. We may provide aggregate statistics about our visitors, browser type, operating system, Internet, domain, demographic and profile data, traffic patterns, and related site information to reputable third parties, but these statistics will not include personally identifiable information.

9. By submitting your information you consent to the use of that information as set out in this Policy. If we change our Privacy Policy we will post the changes on this page, so that you may be aware of the information we collect and how we use it. Continued use of the service will signify that you agree to any such changes.

10. The Website may include links to other web sites. We may not be operating the linked sites and we do not endorse the contents, views or products of the linked sites. We do not accept any responsibility for use of the linked sites. You are advised to use linked sites with caution and with due regard to any terms of use on those sites. If you transfer to other sites by using a link from our Website to theirs we may receive aggregate or otherwise anonymous statistical information about your trip and any purchases you may make on those sites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies or content of other web sites and your visit to those sites is not protected by our Privacy Policy.

11. We take precautions with your personal data. However, except in the case of death or personal injury, we do not accept responsibility for any loss or damage resulting from any security breaches that may occur.

12. It is important for you to let us know if you think that the data we have about you is inaccurate or incomplete. You may remove, change or modify information from our database by editing your details or contacting the site administrator.
