Use and storage of your personal information
When you supply any personal information to Sensornet (e.g. by providing your e-mail address through our “Keep Updated” services, or by completing our online enquiry form) we have legal obligations towards you in the way we deal with that data.
We must collect the information fairly, that is, we must explain how we will use it (see the notices on particular webpages that let you know why we are requesting the information) and tell you if we want to pass the information on to anyone else.
Any information that you provide to Sensornet will only be used within Sensornet. It will never be supplied to anyone outside Sensornet without first obtaining your consent, unless we are obliged or permitted by law to disclose it.
We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as you use the service you have requested, and remove it in the event that the purpose has been met, or you request removal. We will ensure that all personal information supplied is held securely, in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
