GENERAL PRIVACY PRINCIPLES
Accountability
CCS is responsible for your Personally Identifying Information under its control. CCS has appointed an officer who is accountable for CCScompliance with this privacy policy. Dave Devery has been designated CCS's privacy officer in connection with this privacy policy. Davecan be reached by telephone at 067 42846, by email at dave@nenaghpc.com, or by regular mail at Brooklands Drive, Nenagh, Co.Tipperary. Identifying Purposes "Personally Identifying Information" is information that individually identifies you, such as your name, company name, physical address, phone numbers, email address and any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact you. CCS asks for your Personally Identifying Information so that it can understand your needs, determine if CCS's products and services meet your needs, inform you about its products and services that it believes may be of interest to you, or comply with the law. Of course, you may choose not to provide CCS with Personally Identifying Information. However, this choice may prevent CCS from providing you with the product, service or information you requested or that could be offered to you. Our server does not automatically record Personally Identifying Information. Such information can become known to CCS via its websites only when you voluntarily submit it.
Consent
Your knowledge and consent are required for the collection, use, or disclosure of your Personally Identifying Information. No information is collected without your express consent.
Limiting Collection
CCS only collects the information that it needs in order to deliver products, services and information to you, as well as offering customers the ability to instantly complete product registration online.
Limiting Use, Disclosure and Retention
CCS does not use or disclose your Personally Identifying Information for purposes other than those for which it was collected or as set forth in this privacy policy, except as otherwise set forth in this privacy policy under the heading Limits of Confidentiality, or as required by law. Your Personally Identifying Information is retained only as long as necessary for the fulfillment of those purposes or as required by law.
Accuracy
Your Personally Identifying Information is kept as accurately and completely as is necessary for the purposes for which it is to be used. You have the right to up date, modify, amend or correct errors in your Personally Identifying Information by contacting CCS .
Safeguards
CCS protects your Personally Identifying Information by using safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. Each of our employees who has access to your Personally Identifying Information is informed about our Privacy Policy and procedures for protecting Personally Identifying Information.
CCS undertakes substantial efforts to protect the confidentiality of the identity, preferences and other information it has collected about individual Registrants and, except as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Policy, will not knowingly allow access to this information to anyone outside CCS as described below under the heading Limits of Confidentiality.
CCS has made a substantial investment in its server, database, backup and firewall technologies to protect our information assets, including the confidentiality of information collected about Registrants. These technologies are deployed as part of a sophisticated security architecture and protocol. Unfortunately, neither CCS's network nor data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect Registrant's information, CCS cannot ensure or warrant the security of member information. Thus, any information a Registrant transmits to us is done so at the Registrant's own risk. Once we receive Registrant information, we undertake substantial efforts to protect the confidentiality of this information consistent with this Policy.
Openness
CCS will make its complete policies and practices relating to the management of your Personally Identifying Information readily available to you. Access Upon request in writing, either by email or letter, you will be informed of the existence, use or disclosure of your Personally Identifying Information and you will be given access to that information. CCS will assist any customer who informs us that they need assistance in preparing a request concerning Personally Identifying Information. You may also challenge, in writing either by email or letter, the accuracy and completeness of the information and have it amended as appropriate, or request that CCS delete or correct any Personally Identifying Information contained in your file.

You may address any challenge concerning our compliance with this privacy policy to Dave at dave@nenaghpc.com or by regular mail at Brooklands Drive, Nenagh, Co.Tipperary
