Haslemere Dental
Centre (HDC) respects your ability to make informed choices about the
collection and uses of your personal information. This privacy policy
tells you about our online collection and use of information that identifies
you personally so that you can make an informed choice about using this
website ("Site"). The terms of this policy apply to www.somethingtosmileabout.co.uk
domain and sub-domains, unless different terms are specified in a form
or contract provided to you online or offline. Websites we link to, including
but not limited to the sites of subsidiaries and third-party content partners,
may have different privacy policies and practices from those disclosed
here. We assume no responsibility for the policies or practices of such
linked sites and encourage you to become acquainted with them.
This Site is operated by HDC. By
using this Site, you understand and agree that (1) that the information
collected from this Site may be retained indefinitely, and may be stored,
accessed and used in jurisdictions whose privacy laws may be different
and less protective than those of your home jurisdiction; (2) HDC may
use this information for a variety of purposes, including direct marketing
(unless you opt out of receiving direct marketing from HDC); (3) HDC
may disclose this information to necessary service providers, such as
payment processors, data storage providers and similar entities to provide
the services they contract for. These third parties have no right to
use your information for secondary purposes. We use a data storage facility
to securely house back-end data that may include your personally identifiable
information. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally
identifiable information for any other purposes; they are prohibited
from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose;
(4) information about our customers, including personal information,
may be disclosed as part of any merger, sale of the company assets or
acquisition, as well as in the unlikely event of an insolvency, bankruptcy
or receivership in which personal information would be transferred as
one of the business assets of the company, with notification of such
transfer provided directly to account holders through email or post;
and (5) we reserve the right to disclose your personal information if
required to do so by law, or in the good-faith belief that such action
is reasonably necessary to comply with legal process, respond to claims
or protect the rights, property or safety of our company, employees,
customers or the public.
Information
Collected from This Site
When you visit this Site, some information, such as the website that
referred you to us, your IP and email address and navigational information,
may be collected automatically as part of the Site's operation. We may
combine this information with personally identifiable information. On
some occasions we may ask you to provide information on online forms.
For example, we may ask for your username, password, place of birth,
full name, telephone number, email address and postal address, or other
information to register online, or other personally identifying information
to fulfill licensing transactions or to receive products or services.
We may also ask you about your age, hobbies, income, gender or other
information to participate in surveys or other online activities. Providing
information on online forms is always voluntary, and you are free not
to complete any online forms. If you choose not to, however, some products
and services may not be available to you.

agents, service providers and selected other entities for fulfilling
their service obligations to HDC, such as credit card processors, data
base service providers, and similar entities to provide the services
