Information We Collect.
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe,
efficient, and personalised experience.
In general, you can browse the Site without telling us who you are or revealing
any personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information,
you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to use our services, we may require you
to provide contact and identity information, financial information and other personal
information as indicated on the forms throughout the Site. Where possible, we indicate
which fields are required and which fields are optional.
You always have the option not to provide information by choosing not to use a particular
service or feature.
Under some circumstances we may require some additional financial information, such
as, but not limited to, credit card details if you are registering using an email
account at certain email services, or registering to sell on the Site. We use this
financial information to help verify your name, address, and other information.
We may also use this information to charge you for your use of our services.
We automatically collect and process certain information based upon your use of
the Site. We use this information to conduct internal research on our users' demographics,
interests, and behaviour to better understand, serve and protect you and our community.
This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is
on the Site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the Site or
not), browser information, and your IP address.
We use data collection devices such as "cookies" on certain pages of the
Site. "Cookies" are small files placed on your hard drive that assist
us in providing customised services and to help promote safer trading. We also offer
certain features that are only available through the use of a cookie. We also use
cookies to allow you to enter your password less frequently while you are using
the Site. Cookies can also help us provide information which we tailor to your interests.
Most cookies are "session cookies", meaning that they are automatically
deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session using the Site. You are always
free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although in that case you may
not be able to use certain features on the Site and you may be required to re-enter
your password more frequently while you are using the Site.
Additionally, you may encounter "cookies" or other similar devices on
certain pages of the Site that are placed by third parties. For example, if you
view a web page created by a user, there may be a "cookie" placed within
that web page. We do not control the use of cookies by third parties.
If you choose to buy or sell on the Site, we collect information about your buying
and selling behaviour.
If you establish a credit account with us to pay the fees we charge, we collect
some additional information, including, but not limited to, a billing address, a
credit card number and a credit card expiration date.
If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters, or if other users
or third parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on the
Site, we may collect such information into a file specific to you.
If you register for FCT; (a) on another web site, or (b) use a web site
providing a service for FCT;, or (c) a web site that helps facilitate
your activity on FCT; that web site may provide personal information
about you and your transactions back to FCT;.
Our Use of Your Information.
We use information in the files we maintain about you, and other information we
obtain from your current and past activities on the Site, to resolve disputes, provide
customer support, troubleshoot problems and enforce our User Agreement and policies.
At times, we may look across multiple users to identify problems or resolve disputes,
and in particular we may examine your information to identify users using multiple
User IDs or aliases.
You agree that we may use personally identifiable information about you to improve
our marketing and promotional efforts, to analyze site usage, improve our content
and product offerings, and customise the Site's content, layout, and services. These
uses improve the Site and better tailor it to meet your needs.
You agree that we may use your information to contact you and deliver information
to you that, in some cases, are targeted to your interests, such as targeted banner
advertisements, administrative notices, product offerings, and communications relevant
to your use of the Site. By accepting the User Agreement and reading this Privacy
Policy, you expressly agree to receive this information. If you do not wish to receive
these communications, please notify us by email to sales@footballclubtickets.bz
Our Disclosure of Your Information.
FCT; MAY USE YOUR INFORMATION FOR ANY LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE PURPOSE AS
DETERMINED IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION. Without limiting the foregoing, we may share
or sell your personally identifiable information with third parties for their direct
and online marketing purposes. Though we are selective as to the identities of these
third parties and endeavour to work with entities with similar policies and practices,
we do not control the policies and practices of these third parties, and it is possible
that they will use your information in a manner which is inconsistent with this
privacy policy, and they may not provide the opportunity to opt-out or unsubscribe
from their service.
We may enhance or merge your personally identifiable information with data collected
from other sources to use in direct or online marketing, including the data services
described on the Site. All information provided to us may be used to support our
marketing and data services businesses. These services include the provision of
and use of personally identifiable data to marketing companies, advertising agencies,
data compilers, data companies, and, to the extent permitted by law, individual
reference and look-up service programs.
We send e-mail to individuals who have agreed on the Site to receive e-mail from
us or to individuals who have agreed on third party websites to receive e-mail from
third parties such as us. As a result, laws requiring particular information or
certain formatting for unsolicited commercial e-mail are not applicable to our messages.
FCT; cooperates with law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third
parties, to enforce laws and third party rights, such as intellectual property rights
and laws relating to fraud. Therefore, in response to a verified request by law
enforcement or other government officials such as a Section 29 (3) Data Protection
Act 1998 form relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity,
or other activity that may expose us or you to legal liability, we can (and you
authorise us to) disclose personal information such as name, address, telephone
number, email address, User ID history and listing history about you as we, in our
sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate.
Control of Your Password.
You are responsible for all actions taken with your User ID and password, including
those actions that result in fees being charged to your account. Therefore we do
not recommend that you disclose your FCT; password to any third parties.
If you choose to share your User ID and password or your information with third
parties where it is necessary for you to do so for them to provide you additional
services, you are responsible for all actions taken with your User ID and password
and therefore you should review that third party's privacy policy. If you lose control
of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personally identifiable
information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf.
Therefore, if your password or account has been compromised for any reason, you
should immediately change your password as detailed below.
Accessing, Reviewing and Changing Your Personally Identifiable Information.
You can change your User ID, password, contact information, financial information,
postal address and user preferences by emailing us at sales@footballclubtickets.bz
You must promptly notify us if your personal information changes or is inaccurate.
Upon your written request, we will deactivate your account, contact information,
and financial information from our active databases. To make this request, please
contact sales@footballclubtickets.bz Such information will be deactivated as soon as reasonably possible in accordance
with our deactivation policy and applicable law.
We will retain in our files information you have requested us to remove in some
circumstances, such as to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our User Agreement. Further, such prior information is never
completely removed from our databases due to technical and legal constraints, including
stored "back up" systems. Therefore, you should not expect that all of
your personally identifiable information will be completely removed from our databases
in response to your requests.
Other Information Collectors.
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document only
addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. To the extent
that you disclose your information to other parties, whether they are buyers or
sellers on the Site or other sites throughout the Internet, different rules may
apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. To the
extent that we use third party advertisers, they adhere to their own privacy policies.
Since FCT; does not control the privacy policies of third parties, you
are subject to the privacy policies of that third party. We encourage you to ask
questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
Security.
FCT; uses industry standard practices to safeguard the confidentiality
of your personal identifiable information, including encryption, "firewalls"
and Secure Socket Layers. FCT; treats data as an asset that must be protected
against loss and unauthorised access. We employ many different security techniques
to protect such data from unauthorised access by users inside and outside the company.
However, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.
Notice.
We may amend this Privacy Policy from time to time in order that it accurately reflects
the regulatory environment and our own data collection and disclosure practices.
All amended terms shall automatically be effective 30 days after they are initially
posted on the Site. In addition, we will notify you by posting the amended Privacy
Policy on the Site.
