Disclaimer
Mackie Rugby Football Club (Mackie RFC) seeks to ensure that the information published on its website is up to date and accurate. However, the information on the website does not constitute formal advice and Mackie RFC cannot accept any liability for actions arising from its use.

Cookies and Website Traffic Analysis
When users enter the Mackie RFC website, their computers will automatically be issued with 'cookies'. Cookies are text files which identify users' computers to the Mackie RFC server. The website then creates "session" cookies to store some of the preferences of users moving around the website, e.g. retaining a text-only preference. Cookies in themselves do not identify individual users but identify only the computer used and they are deleted on departure from the website. Many websites do this to track traffic flows, whenever users visit those websites. The Mackie RFC website uses third-party cookies to measure use of the website including number of visitors, how frequently pages are viewed, and the city and country of origin of users. This helps to determine what is popular and can influence future content and development. For this purpose, the Government uses Google Analytics to measure and analyse usage of the website. The information collected by Mackie RFC will include IP Address, pages visited, browser type and operating system. The data will not be used to identify any user personally. Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user. Log files stored on the Government's web server allow the recording and analysis of users' use of the website. Log files do not contain any personal information.

UK Sharing Legal Disclaimer

Service Providers
We partner with other third parties to provide specific services. For example database development, push mobile technology and hosting. When the user signs up for these particular services, we share names, or other contact information including mobile number and full contact information with the third party service providers so that the third party can supply these services. These third parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.

Surveys
From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests.

The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and address), and demographic information (such as postal code). Contact information will not be shared with any third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use users' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as postal code, phone, email or postal address), we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate users' personally identifiable information.

Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
If, however, we are going to use users' personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email or by posting a notice on our Web site for 30 days.
