Visiting Our Web Site

Collection of Personal Information

You can browse through this web site, including searching for a vehicle, without registering any of your personal information. This web site collects personal information about you only when you complete a form on the web site and forward it to us.

When you visit this site, our server logs the following information (none of which personally identifies you) provided by your browser:

· The type of browser and operating system you are using and the previous site you visited;

· Your server's IP address (a number which is unique to the machine through which you are connected to the Internet - usually one of your service provider's machines).

Our server logs the date and time of your visit, which parts of our web site you visited, and any documents you downloaded.

Our server might also use a feature of your browser called a "cookie" to assign a user ID. The use of "cookies" is an industry standard and you will find them at most major web sites. We do not use "cookies" for any purpose other than to store the sites and databases a user has selected. Most browsers are initially set up to accept "cookies". If you'd prefer you can set yours to refuse "cookies" or to alert you when "cookies" are being sent. However it is possible some parts of the site will not function properly if you do so.

Use and Disclosure of Personal Information

We only use information collected by our server to generate statistics and analyse site activity.

When you provide us with information on this web site we will only use it for the purpose for which you provided it. If you give permission we will use your personal information only to send you e-mails to announce products or promotions related to our companies. If you do not give your permission you will not be contacted again except as it pertains to your specific request. Every time we send you an e-mail we will give you the opportunity to choose not to receive further e-mails of that type.

We may also use your e-mail address to respond to feedback given about this site, and to confirm receipt of e-mails sent to us.

We do not disclose any information collected on this web site to any organization not related to the McGrath group of companies.

Storage of Personal Information

Any personal information you provide will be securely stored in a database, which is password protected, and located in a secure facility.

Please note that, despite the high level of security installed on this web site, we cannot guarantee that any e-mail is secure.

If any of the Personal Information we are holding has changed, we will correct it for you.
