What Does this Privacy Policy cover?
This privacy policy covers the access and use of Biking.ie site and any related subdomains unless explicitly indicated otherwise.
This policy references areas of site operation that may impact upon the privacy of visitors and registered users.
The Website
Steps have been taken to ensure the privacy and security of visitors to this site in compliance with EU law. Where possible and reasonable the collection of data from anonymous users has been minimised.
Use of Cookies
By necessity this site uses cookies to temporarily store information about your interaction with the services.
Cookies are small collections of data stored on your computer by your browser that allow websites like this one to provide relevant responses to your requests. These cookies, while generally anonymous, may contain references to more detailed information stored on the server, such as information entered into forms and recently visited pages from the site.
Cookies stored by your browser should only be made available to the sites that generated them. However, the proper configuration and integrity of this software is the responsibility of the user and the operators of this site cannot take responsibility for information deliberately or accidentally disseminated by the application used to access the site.
At any time you may delete the cookies stored by your browser though this may degrade the browsing experience of this and other websites. If you wish to delete cookies please follow the instructions provided for your application. Visiting the site after deleting cookies will result in new cookies being created and stored.
Depending on the capabilities of your browsing application you may block cookies from this and other websites to prevent them from being stored. This will degrade the capabilities of any site that uses them and will prevent logging in to services that require registration.
In the case of registered users cookies are used to store a Session ID that references your current authorisation to access additional services on the site. These cookies do not contain personal information but can be used by the website to access account information stored on the server. When logging out these cookies are reset. Deleting these cookies will have the same effect as logging out of the site.
Contact & Communication
Contact and communication with this website will be at the discretion of the visitor. To the best of our ability any personal information entered into the site will be kept secure.
Typically the personal information will be gathered explicitly through filling out a form or providing these details in an email or other communication. This information may include names, email addresses, street addresses and/or telephone numbers. By providing this information to the operator of the site either through the website, through email or another communication medium, you give your consent for them to use these details to identify and contact you.
This information will not be shared with third parties without permission.
External Links
At times you may encounter links to external sites. While the operators endeavour to keep these links up-to-date they do not have control over the websites linked to and take no responsibility for the quality or nature of the service received upon leaving this website. This policy can only cover this website and no part of it applies to the operation or content of any external site.
By using an external link you may be providing the external website with information about your activity on the referring site. Please consult the documentation for your browsing application to learn more about this.
If you believe that an external link is inappropriate or broken please contact the operators to advise them.
Social Media
This site makes use of social media such as Twitter and Facebook. Direct interaction with these services is covered by those services’ own privacy policies which can be found on their respective websites.
Content from these services may be presented on this site and, in so doing, these services may have access to basic data about your interaction with this website, such as the page you were visiting when presented with their content.
At times this site may make available sharing links that may be used to simply post links to your own social media account. By using these sharing links you are subject to the policies of the related service and to the configuration of that service with regards to posting via your account.
