Privacy Policy
Grafton Stone House is committed to safeguarding your privacy while visiting the website www.graftonstonehouse.com. The goal is to provide you with a lovely internet experience that delivers the information that the Stone House has to offer and is relevant to your needs.
To achieve this goal, part of the operation of the site includes gathering certain types of information about Site users.
This policy will cover two types of information gathered at the Site: personal and aggregated. The term 'personal information' refers to data you voluntarily provide while using the Site that identifies you and/or the company on whose behalf you are accessing and using the Site.
Examples of personal information may include data in connection with a contact, such as your name, e-mail address, phone number, company affiliation, physical address and/or certain other personal information.
The term 'aggregated data' refers to general information regarding Site visitors and users that relates specifically to the Site, e.g. traffic patterns, number of visits to certain pages, visits from other web sites or to third-party websites linked to the Site, use of particular services and interest in services, information or features of the Site or other parties made available through or found at the Site.
The Grafton Stone House ensures that the personal information we obtain from you is not used in a way that you may not be aware of or may not be agreeable to.
You may wish to submit an inquiry about the Stone House. In response, we may ask for information such as your name and postal address. In the event you opt to provide us with this information, we will use it for the purpose intended.
We do not sell, rent or share any of your personal information with any other party including third-party joint promoters, nor use it for commercial purposes.
Permission for Use
Grafton Stone House may collect and use personal information that you submit at the Site in any manner consistent with uses in this Privacy Policy or disclosed elsewhere in the Site at the point you submit such personal information. At the time you submit personal information or make a request, the intended use of the information you submit will be apparent in the context in which you submit it and/or because the Site states the intended purpose.
By submitting personal information at the Site, you are giving consent and permission for any use that is consistent with uses stated in this Privacy Policy or disclosed elsewhere at the Site at the point you submit such personal information, and such consent will be presumed by Grafton Stone House unless you state otherwise at the time you submit the personal information.
Use of Aggregated Data
The Stone House is interested in improving the Site and may develop and offer new features and services. We monitor aggregated data regarding use of the Site for marketing purposes and to study, improve and promote use of the Site. In connection with such purposes, Grafton Stonehouse may share aggregated data with third parties collectively and in an anonymous way.
Disclosure of aggregated data does not reveal personal information about individual Site users in any way that identifies who they are or how to contact them.
Exceptions to the Privacy Policy
Grafton Stonehouse has two exceptions to these limits on use of personal information:
- Grafton Stonehouse may monitor and, when we believe in good faith that disclosure is required, disclose information to protect the security, property, assets and/or rights of Grafton Stonehouse from unauthorized use, or misuse, of the Site or anything found at the Site.
- Grafton Stonehouse may disclose information when required by law; however, only to the extent necessary and in a manner that seeks to maintain the privacy of the individual.
Use of Cookies
To enable features at the Site, Grafton Stonehouse may assign one or more 'cookies' to your Internet browser. Cookies, among other things, speed navigation though our Site, keep track of information so that you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit our Site, and may provide you with customized content.
A cookie is an Internet mechanism composed of a small text file containing a unique identification number that permits a web server to send small pieces of information or text by means of your browser and place them on your computer's hard drive for storage. This text lets the web server know if you have previously visited the web page. Cookies by themselves cannot be used to find out the identity of any user.
We use cookies to collect and maintain aggregated data (such as number of visitors) to help us see which areas are most popular with our users and improve and update the content on our Site. While in the process of browsing our site, you also provide us with information that doesn't reveal your personal identity what type of destination you're exploring, for example.
We use this aggregated data only as explained in this Privacy Policy. We do not connect aggregated data to any name, address, or other identifying information.
You may occasionally receive cookies from unaffiliated companies or organizations, to the extent that they place advertising on our Site or are linked to the Site. These third-party cookies may collect information about you when you 'click' on their advertising or content or link. This practice is standard in the Internet industry.
Because of the way in which the Internet operates, we cannot control collection of this information by these third parties, and these cookies are not subject to this Privacy Policy.
