Visitor Information
During the course of any visit to originfertilitycare.com, the pages you see, along with a short text file called a 'cookie', are downloaded to your computer. Most websites do this, because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the computer (but not necessarily its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by looking for and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.
Information supplied by cookies can help us to provide you with a better online user experience and assist us to analyse the profile of our visitors. For example: if on a previous visit you and a significant number of visitors went to our ‘Infertility Explained’ pages, we might find this out from your cookies and invest greater resources to ensure that these pages provided a more valuable experience on your subsequent visits.
What is a cookie
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a website's computer and stored on your computer's hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it. But, to protect your privacy, your browser only permits a web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Neither can cookies interrogate, read or collect other data from your computer.
Most sites use cookies whenever a user visits their website, in order to track online traffic activity.
Cookies record information about your online preferences. 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, of course, means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user and accordingly you may not be able to take full advantage of all of the originfertilityare.com features.
Each browser is different; so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
If you have set your computer to reject cookies you can still browse originfertilitycare.com anonymously. For further information on cookies please visit www.aboutcookies.org.
International Transfer of Personal Data
The Internet does not recognise national boundaries. Services on the net are accessible globally so the collection and transmission of personal data may not be confined to one country. You should be aware that having linked to third party Websites from our Website you may be requested to provide personal information and your personal data may be processed in or transferred to other countries if you agree to your personal data being transferred or processed in this way.
Links to all third party sites are identifiable because clicking on them will launch new browser windows displaying the third party's website URLs. Such links are provided for your convenience and reference only and we cannot be held responsible in any way for the content, operation or availability of such websites or provide any warranty with regard to the collection and dissemination of any personal information provided to third party Websites.
