Privacy Policy

MyWALKS.com respect your right to privacy and this statement sets out MyWALKS.com's policy towards safeguarding information which you disclose to us.

While MyWALKS.com will never wilfully disclose information relating to you which could be used to identify you on an individual basis to any third party without first receiving your express permission, you acknowledge that MyWALKS.com may disclose certain registration information in the aggregate to a third party, or may use this information to direct information relating to topics, goods or services to you which we feel will be of interest to you.

In any case, where MyWALKS.com asks you for personal information, such as your name and address, from which you can be identified on an individual basis, we will only do this where we require that information for specific purposes, for example registration. In every case, we will let you know what we intend doing with that information before collecting it, so that you can decide whether or not to furnish that information to us. If at any time after giving us this information you decide that you no longer wish us to hold or use this information, or in the case that the information becomes out of date, you are free to notify us, and we will use all reasonable endeavours to remove or rectify the information promptly.

You acknowledge and agree that in certain circumstances we may be obliged to disclose personal information relating to you to third parties, for example, in order to conform to any requirements of law or to comply with any legal process, as well as to protect and defend the rights of property of MyWALKS.com and/or our other customers.
