Subscriber activity is tracked and stored in a database for analysis and evaluation. Such tracked activity may include the opening and forwarding of emails, the clicking of links within the email content and the times, dates and frequency of activity. This information is used to refine future email campaigns and supply the user with more relevant content based around their activity.

9. Our website
ATI ensures that the necessary steps have been taken to protect the privacy of users when visiting our website. This website complies with all UK national laws and requirements for user privacy.
(a) Use of cookies
This website uses cookies to improve our users’ experience on the website. Where applicable, this website uses a cookie control system, allowing the user on their first visit to the website to accept or reject the use of cookies on their computer/device. This complies with recent legislation requirements for websites to obtain explicit consent from users before leaving behind or reading files such as cookies on a user’s computer/device.
Cookies are small files saved to the user’s computer’s hard drive that track, save and store information about the user’s interactions and usage of the website. This allows the website, through its server, to provide users with a tailored experience within this website.
We advise users that if they wish to deny the use and saving of cookies from this website onto their computer’s hard drive, they should adjust their web browsers’ security settings to block all cookies from this website.
(b) Google Analytics
We have implemented Google Analytics on this website. We use the data provided by Google Analytics to develop the site and content around our users’ interests.
You can use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to disable tracking by Google Analytics.
(c) External links
Our website contains links to enable you to visit other websites of interest. Although we aim to include trusted and relevant external links only, please note that we do not have any control over the content of external sites. We are therefore not responsible for the protection and privacy of any information you might provide whilst visiting such sites, and stress that you click on external links at your own risk.
10. How we protect your personal data
We know how important data security is to our customers. We will take all appropriate steps to protect your data.
We secure access to all transactional areas of our website using ‘https’ technology.
We monitor our system for possible vulnerabilities and attacks with anti-virus and malware software.
11. Our social media platforms
Communication, engagement and actions taken through external social media platforms that this website and its owners participate in are subject to the terms and conditions, as well as the privacy policies, held with each social media platform.
Users are advised to use social media platforms wisely and exercise due care and caution with regard to their own privacy and personal details.
This website may use social sharing buttons which help share web content directly from web pages to the social media platform in question. Users are advised before using such social sharing buttons that they do so at their own discretion and should note that the social media platform may track and save your request to share a web page through your social media platform account.
(a) Shortened links in social media
This website may use social media platform accounts to share web links to relevant web pages. Some social media platforms shorten lengthy URLs (web addresses).
Users are advised to take care before clicking any shortened URLs published on social media platforms by this website and its owners. Despite the best efforts to ensure only genuine URLs are published, many social media platforms are vulnerable to spam and therefore ATI cannot be held liable for any damages caused by or implications of visiting any shortened links.
12. Your rights regarding your data
(a) Access and correction of your personal information
You have the right to request at any time a copy of the data we hold about you (as defined in the GDPR) through a written subject access request to the Data Protection Officer.
Before providing personal information to you or another person on your behalf, we will ask for proof of identity and sufficient information about your interactions with us to locate your personal information.
If any of the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate or out of date, you may ask us to correct it.
If you want to discuss any aspects of ATI’s privacy policy, or have suggestions for the improvement of our procedures, please contact the company’s Data Protection Officer, Wilma Earl, in writing to the address below or by email to wilma@ati-tanks.co.uk.

14. Non-UK customers
By using our services or providing your personal data to us, you expressly consent to the processing of your personal data by us or on our behalf.
We may need to transfer your personal data between countries to enable us to supply the goods or services you have requested. We may transfer your personal data from your country of residence to ourselves and to third parties located in the UK.
This may occur because our information technology storage facilities and servers are located outside your country of residence, and could include storage of your personal data on servers in the UK.
By dealing with us, you are giving your consent to the overseas use, transfer and disclosure of your personal data outside your country of residence for our business purposes.
You still have the right to ask us not to process your data in certain ways, and if you do so, we will respect your wishes.
We will ensure that reasonable steps are taken to prevent third parties outside your country of residence using your personal data in any way that is not set out in this privacy policy. We will also make sure that we adequately protect the confidentiality and privacy of your personal data.
