Types of Information Collected
We retain two types of information:
"Personal Data"
This data identifies or can be used to identify or contact you and includes information such as your name, address, gender, email address, birth date, marital status, occupation, and salary range. While information such as name and email address is mandatory (we need it to provide the service), the rest is only collected if you voluntarily submit it to us.

Like many websites, we gather statistical and other analytical information collected on an aggregate basis from all visitors to our website. This Non-Personal Data comprises information that cannot be used to identify or contact you, such as demographic information regarding, for example, user IP addresses (where they have been clipped), browser types, and other anonymous statistical data involving the use of our website.
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service that Google, Inc. ("Google") provides. Google Analytics uses "cookies", text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information to evaluate your website use, compile website activity reports for website operators, and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.
Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. By using this website and clicking on the 'I Accept' button, you consent to Google processing data about you in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
