General
This site is provided and managed by The Lotus Trust, Registered Charity no 1114304
The Lotus Trust has created this privacy statement in order
to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following
discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices
for the website www.thelotustrust.org and consists of these areas:

Sharing of Information
We do not share your personally identifiable information
with any other entities. |
IP Address Logging
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server,
and to administer our Web site. IP addresses are logged to
track a user's session. This gives gbss.org.uk an idea of which
parts of our site users are visiting and when. Your IP address
is also used to gather broad demographic information. We do
not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable.
This means that a users session will be tracked, but the user
will be anonymous.
What's an IP Address?
When you are connected to the Internet, your computer has
a unique Internet ID called an IP address. Most people
that connect through a dial-up service, such as AOL
or FreeServe, get a different IP address each time
they login. Others might have a permanently assigned
IP address, called a static IP address. It is difficult
or impossible for a web site to collect personal information
about you (i.e., your name, email address, etc.) from
your IP address alone, though a static IP address makes
this easier. |
Cookies
Temporary and time-limited 'persistent' cookies might be used
on our website from time to time. For example our font-size changer
uses a cookie to preserver your settings as you move from page
to another.
What's a Cookie?
Cookies are pieces of information that a web site stores
in your computer. Temporary cookies only last as long
as your browser is running. Persistent cookies are stored
on your hard disk (they take up very little space). Sites
often use cookies to identify repeat visitors and offer
them personalized service. |
Links to Other Sites
This site might from time to time contain links to other sites.
gbss.org.uk is not responsible for the privacy practices or
the content of such Web sites.
