Introduction
CWCC is strongly committed to protecting personal data. Reading the following clauses will give you an idea of how we use your personal information. We may change our privacy policy without prior notice, so please check it every time you visit our website. Once you provide personal information to us, it means that you agree to collect and use it in accordance with this privacy policy, including our use of cookies as mentioned below.
Collection of personal information
We collect and store information that is generated automatically as you navigate online through the Site. For example, we may collect information about your computer’s connection to the Internet, which allows us, among other things, to improve the delivery of our web pages to you and to measure traffic on the Site. The Site may also automatically recognize and store information about the type of browser you are using; your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address; the time, date, and length of your visit; and the referring site. We also use a standard browser software feature called a “cookie,” in order to enhance your experience with the Site. Cookies are small files that your web browser places on your hard drive for record-keeping purposes. By showing how and when visitors use the Site, cookies help identify how many unique users visit us, track user trends and patterns, and may help deliver advertisements or other notices. They also may prevent you from having to re-enter your preferences on certain areas of the Site where you may have entered preference information before. Cookies may not expire unless you manually delete them or set your browser to reject them. If you do not accept cookies, you may have difficulty navigating the Website, or the performance may not be the same. For more information on our use of cookies, please refer to Cookies Policy.
