Please be reassured that we will not release your information to third parties beyond the Videolink Network for them to use for their own direct marketing purposes, unless you have requested us to do so, or we are required to do so by law, for example, by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime.

1.9     How we protect against the loss, misuse or unauthorised alteration of your information

When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it’s treated securely. We don’t store any credit or debit card details and we do our utmost to protect all other details (including encryption and protection with 256 Bit encryption on SSL - when you are on a secure page, a lock icon will appear on the bottom of web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer).

Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems. Where we have given (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
