We will ensure that our staff and those acting on our behalf obtain, use and disclose personal information lawfully and correctly. To this end we fully endorse and adhere to the principles of data protection, as set out in the UK Data Protection Act 1998 (the "Act"). We shall apply the Act globally.

In particular we will:
• Observe the conditions in the Act regarding the fair collection and use of personal information (please see below regarding personal information collected via our website).
• Meet our legal obligations to specify the purposes for which we process personal information, this information being set out in our data protection notification particulars which can be found on the Information Commissioner’s website at www.dpr.gov.uk.

• Registration: To post articles for sale on outgrownit.com, or to receive our newsletter, we ask you to register, and if you do we ask for your name, email address, geographical address and other personal information.

Use of Cookies
Cookies are small files, which many web sites transfer to your hard disk. They can inform the web site what pages you visit, and your preferences, which enable web sites to provide you with a more personalized service. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, or to warn you before accepting them. We use cookies, but most parts of our site can be accessed even if your cookies are turned off. But you may find there are parts of the site that you cannot access or use fully, if your cookies are turned off.

How do we use your information?
We use the information to help us understand more about how our web site is used, to improve our site, and to send you information about our services that we think may be of interest to you, both electronically and otherwise. In the case of our online publications available through subscription, your personal information may be used to enable us to verify you are a subscriber and to deliver the online publication to you.

When do we share information?
We do not sell or give your personal information to others.

A number of other people's web sites may have links on our site. If you link to their sites, they may collect information, and such sites are not within our control and are not covered by this privacy statement.

If we believe that your use of outgrownit.com is unlawful or damaging to others, we reserve the right to disclose the information we have obtained through the site about you to the extent that it is reasonably necessary in our opinion to prevent, remedy or take action in relation to such conduct.

What about security?
All personal and credit card information is encoded using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology before being sent over the Internet. To protect your data further, your credit card information is always stored in encrypted form in a database that is away from our Web site database, so it isn't connected to the Internet. Credit card transactions are issued with a digital certificate, ensuring that your data can only be read by our transaction system as long as your browser shows its secure mode symbol (such as a key or closed lock). To make the most of the security on our site, we recommend using either Microsoft® Internet Explorer™ version 4.0 or higher or Netscape Navigator®, both of which enable SSL. We also recommend setting your browser's preferences to accept cookies and enable JavaScript™.

Children
Some of our pages may be specially designed for children. We do not send unsolicited direct email to users who have indicated on registering of those pages that they are under 13. Children under 13 should ask a parent, guardian or teacher for permission before sending us information online.
