That is why we have adopted this Privacy Policy. This Privacy
Policy is intended to describe how your personal information
is processed and used, and we will make every effort to ensure
that our activities keep within the spirit of this Privacy
Policy. Please note that by visiting and using ok50.com, you
are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
We undertake to comply with the applicable provisions of
the Data Protection Act 1998 (“the Act”) and other
applicable legislation. OK Lifestyles Limted is the “data
controller” for the purposes of the Act, and we can
be contacted at Castle Farm, Castle Farm Road, Lytchett Matravers,
Poole, Dorset BH16 6BZ if you require copies of the information
we hold about you.
By providing the information requested and clicking on the
“I agree” button you explicitly consent to our
“processing” the data provided within the meaning
of the Act.
We will hold the information for such time as is necessary
to comply with our obligations under the terms and conditions,
following which it will be destroyed. The purposes for which
we process the data are described in this Privacy Policy.
We may occasionally pass the information to third parties
as indicated below.
Every computer connected to the Internet is provided with
a domain name (e.g. earthlink.net) and an IP Address (e.g.
192.164.13.145). When a visitor requests a page from within
the ok50 website, our Web Servers automatically identify and
log the HTTP request that is made to our Web Server. This
information reveals nothing personal about you. In fact, the
only information that we automatically gather and log is as
follows:
- The IP Address of the Site that may have Referred you.
- Your IP Address
- The Web Page that you may have linked to us from, if
any.
- The Product Identifier for Version and
- The Product Identifier for Version and Make of Browser
(e.g. Internet Explorer 4.5)
- The Operating System platform that you may be running
(e.g. Macintosh or Windows)
- Search Words or Terms that are passed from a Search Engine
(e.g. Google, Yahoo, or Lycos)
There is absolutely nothing special about the information
just described, and the practice of collecting this data has
been generally standardized by virtually every Web Server
on the Internet today. The purpose for this information is
actually two-fold. One, ok50.com has found it advantageous
to examine visitor traffic in its aggregate, so that we can
ensure maximum compatibility for the various Browsers and
Operating Systems that visit our site.
Additionally, as any business should attest, it is our desire
to generate greater amounts of visitor traffic. By analyzing
visitation patterns, referring URLs and Search Engine terms,
we can strategically enhance our exposure on the Internet.
Cookies are small pieces of data that are transferred to
your computer's hard drive through your Web browser from our
Web Server. A cookie cannot read data from your hard disk
or read cookie files that may have been created from other
sites. The ok50.com website utilizes cookies as a means of
providing personalization features to our visitors. For example,
we utilize cookies to remember settings (background music
selections, wallpapers preferences, etc.) that you may have
made at our website. You can choose whether to accept cookies
by changing the settings of your browser.
Typically, by accessing the browser's help feature you can
obtain information on how to prevent your browser from accepting
all cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being sent.
If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience
at our website and other websites may be diminished and some
features may not work as intended.
We may also request your e-mail address or mailing address
for the purposes of conducting a survey, adding you to our
mailing list, or by your request to have someone contact you
for additional information. Whenever we request the identity
of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose of the
inquiry before the information is requested. We maintain a
strict "No Spam" policy that means we do not intend
to sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address to a
third-party, without your consent. In addition, ok50.com will
not send you e-mail that you have not agreed to receive. If
you are a member of our Mailing List, you will be contacted
with announcements, news, portfolio additions, and new products
or services.
You have the option of "Unsubscribing" from our
Mailing List at any time, thereby disabling any further such
e-mail communication from being sent to you. If you wish to
have specific communications with a member of the ok50.com
staff, you will be required to provide specific information
that will be routed to the appropriate contact within ok50.com.
If you purchase something, such as a T-Shirt, we need to
obtain the appropriate information in order to complete the
transaction. Depending upon the method of payment that you
select and your location, the required information may vary.
However, generally speaking we will need:
- Your Name
- Billing Address (for Credit Card Orders)
- Shipping Address
- E-Mail Address
- Phone Number
- Credit Card Number (for Credit Card Orders)
- Expiration Date (for Credit Card Orders)
We use shopping cart features that safeguard this information
by using industry standard SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encrypted
servers. SSL encodes the information transferred between you
and the server, generally rendering it unreadable to anyone
trying to intercept the information.
We may transmit your personal data (including without limit
“sensitive data” as defined in the Data Protection
Act 1998) to a payment processor such as World Pay Ltd. By
accepting this privacy policy you expressly consent to such
transmission to or by the payment processor (including export
outside the European Economic Area) of your personal data.
ok50.com will only disclose your personal information or
any of its log file information pursuant to the terms of our
contract with you or when required by law or in the good-faith
belief that such actions are necessary to:
- Conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal
process served on ok50.com.
- Protect and defend the rights or property of ok50.com,
or visitors to ok50.com.
- Identify persons who may be violating the law, the legal
notice, or the rights of third parties.

activities.
ok50.com uses reasonable precautions to keep the information
disclosed to us secure.
ok50.com reserves the right to transfer information in connection
with the sale of all or part of ok50.com capital stock or
assets to any third party.
Furthermore, we are not responsible for any breach of security
or for any actions of any third parties that receive the information.
ok50.com also provides "links" to a wide variety
of other web sites on the Internet. We are not responsible
for their Privacy Policies or how those web sites manage information
about their users.
We strongly urge you to check with those web sites to determine
their privacy policy. Any changes to this Privacy Policy will
be posted on this page so that you are always aware of the
information that we collect, how we use it, and under what
circumstances we disclose it.
