Collection and Use
We collect personally identifiable information when you register to use our on-line services. The gathering of this information is essential to enable us to provide you with the necessary level of service. It is possible to use our on-line services without registering, however, the functionality and service we provide is greatly reduced.

We also gather your IP address, cookie (if set), the requested page and date/time of any transaction in our web server logs.
We use the information it gathers about you for three purposes:
- To provide you with the products and services you request
- To contact you from time to time about special offers and new products/services
- To improve our service levels by monitoring usages and behavioural patterns.
