XMLi5 tries to be as open as it can be in terms of giving people access to their personal information. Individuals can find out if we hold any personal information by making a ‘subject access request’ under the Data Protection Act 1998. If we do hold information about you we will: • give you a description of it; • tell you why we are holding it; • tell you who it could be disclosed to; and • let you have a copy of the information in an intelligible form. To make a request to the XMLi5 for any personal information we may have about you, you will need to submit a request in writing, addressing it to the address provided below. With your expressed permission, we will endeavour to handle your request informally—for instance, by providing you with the specific information you need over the telephone. If we do hold information about you, and there are erroneous details you can ask us to correct any mistakes by submitting a request to the address below. Wherever you are required to submit Data, you will be given options to restrict our use of that Data. This may include the following:

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to safeguard the Data and prevent unauthorised access.


10. What are Cookies?
A “cookie” is a text file containing small amounts of information which is stored on your computer, tablet or mobile phone (device) when you visit a website.

There are different types of cookies which are used to do different things, such as letting you navigate between different pages on a website efficiently, remembering preferences you have given a website, and improving your overall experience. Others are used to measure the number of site visits and the most popular pages users visit, and may be used to provide you with advertising which is more tailored to your interests.

Some cookies are allocated to your computer only for the duration of your visit to a website, and these are called “session” cookies. These automatically expire when you close down your browser.

There is another type of cookie known as "persistent". These cookies remain on your device for a period of time.

Please note that cookies can't harm your computer. We don't store personally identifiable information in cookies we create, but we do use encrypted information gathered from them to help improve your experience of the site. We're giving you this information as part of our initiative to comply with recent legislation, and so that you can manage cookies as required.
