Leapdog is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. This policy explains how we use the information we collect about you and the procedures that we have in place to safeguard your privacy.

The information we collect and how we use it

We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our web site. Your IP address is also used to help identify your country in order to tailor the presentation of content and services.

We monitor customer traffic on an aggregate basis in order to help us develop and improve our web site for the benefit of our users. In order to enhance your use of the web site you will be given a session ID which will only last for the duration of that visit to the site. Each time you visit the site you will have a different session ID.

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 them. We will also e-mail you should we make any changes and give you a chance to ask us not to use your information in that way.

Cookies

Our site uses cookies to keep track of your visits to our web site. A cookie is a small file that can be stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. We use cookies to maintain your login session and to record your preferences.

You can usually change your browser so that it will not accept cookies. However, because our site uses cookies to maintain login sessions, this is not an option for users who need to log-in.

Security of your information

We follow strict security procedures in the storage of information which you have given us. This is to prevent unauthorised access or unlawful processing of your personal information. We keep your information confidential and store it on a secure server which is password protected and hidden behind a firewall from the outside world.

Password security: We store a (salted) digest of your password rather than your actual password. If you forget your password we'll send a time limited reset code to your registered email address.

Non-disclosure to third parties

Unless we have your express consent, we will not disclose your personal data to third parties.

We use your information only as set out in this Policy and will not sell, rent or pass your information on to others for marketing or any other purposes.

Your consent

By submitting your information and using our web site, you consent to the collection, storage and processing of your personal information by us in the manner set out in this Policy. If we change our Privacy Policy we will post the changes on this web site so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use and under what circumstances we disclose it. We will also e-mail you should we make any changes to give you a chance to ask us not to use your information in that way.
