Visitors to our websites:
When someone visits www.rugbyblacklist.com we use a third party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to record the number of visitors to the various parts of the site amongst other data. This information is processed in a way that does not personally identify anyone. We do not make and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website. If we do need to collect personally identifiable information through our website, we will communicate this up front. We will make it clear when we collect personal information and will explain what we intend to do with it.
Use of cookies by Rugby Black List:
On our website we have in place a mechanism that enables you to control your use of cookies, allowing you to set your consent preference.
A cookie is a small piece of code that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive with the browser data. A cookie can’t read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Cookies do not damage your system. Cookies are used to identify which areas of websites you have visited or customised so that, the next time you visit those pages, they are more readily accessible. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your browser or our cookies banner.
You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our site and other Web sites may be diminished. Some features may not work as intended.
For example we, like many other companies, use Google Analytics to help us monitor our website traffic. We also use third party cookies to help us with market research, revenue tracking and improving site functionality.
Search engine:
Our website search logs search queries and results anonymously to help us improve our website and search functionality. No user-specific data is collected by either MI Media or any third party.
Security and performance:
RBL use third party services to help maintain the security and performance of our website. To deliver this service it processes the IP addresses of visitors to the Rugby Black List website to establish traffic origin to guard against DDS attacks and similar strategies.
People who contact us via social media:
If you send us a private or direct message via social media the message will be stored by us for three months. It will not be shared with any other organisations.
People who email us:
We use Transport Layer Security (TLS) to encrypt and protect email traffic in line with government protocol. If your email service does not support TLS, you should be aware that any emails we send or receive may not be protected in transit.
We will also monitor any emails sent to us, including file attachments, for viruses or malicious software. Please be aware that you have a responsibility to ensure that any email you send is within the bounds of the law.
People who make a complaint to us:
When we receive a complaint from a person we make up a file containing the details of the complaint. This normally contains the identity of the complainant and any other individuals involved in the complaint. We will only use the personal information we collect to process the complaint and to check on the level of service we provide.
We usually have to disclose the complainant’s identity to whoever the complaint is about. This is inevitable where, for example, the accuracy of a person’s record is in dispute. If a complainant doesn’t want information identifying him or her to be disclosed, we will try to respect that. However, it may not be possible to handle a complaint on an anonymous basis.
We will keep personal information contained in complaint files in line with our retention policy. This means that information relating to a complaint will be retained for two years from closure. It will be retained in a secure environment and access to it will be restricted according to the ‘need to know’ principle.
Similarly, where enquiries are submitted to us we will only use the information supplied to us to deal with the enquiry and any subsequent issues and to check on the level of service we provide.
When we take enforcement action against someone, we may publish the identity of the defendant in our Annual Report or elsewhere. If possible, we do not identify any complainants unless the details have already been made public.
Those who use Rugby Black List services:
We need to hold the details of the people and companies who have requested the service in order to provide it. However, we only use these details to provide the service the person has requested and for other closely related purposes depending on the service requested.
