What Information Do We Collect and Why?

We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems, to administer our Web site, and to gather demographic information.  When you visit our site, we recognize only your domain name and not your e-mail address.  We will see your e-mail address only if you give it to us by filling out a form or by sending us an e-mail message.

Cookies
We use cookies to deliver personalized content, to save you having to re-enter your password repeatedly, and to tailor our information offerings to how you and others use the site.

E-mail Addresses
If you choose to give us your e-mail address, we will communicate with you via e-mail. We do not share your e-mail address with others outside the LCM group of companies. You can choose not to receive any more e-mail at any time.

Shopping or Event Registration
Our sites include order forms that you fill out to request information, products, and services. These forms may collect your financial information, such as your banking details or credit card numbers. LCM promises to use any financial information that you submit solely for billing and payment purposes for that special transaction.

Online Surveys
Our surveys may ask you for demographic information, such as postal codes or your industry sector. If the online survey collects contact data, we may use that data to send you further information only if we specifically asked for your permission in the survey. You are free to retract any permission you gave.
