Privacy Policy


At Small Island we recognize that privacy is important. This document outlines the types of personal information we receive and collect when you use Small Island's services, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard information. We hope this will help you make an informed decision about sharing personal information with us.

No Confidentiality for Customer Feedback

Feedback and other comments and statements that you chose to submit to Small Island by any means - whether by e-mail to Small Island Customer Service, telephone, letter, or any other means - shall be considered nonconfidential. Small Island is free to use such information on an unrestricted basis.

Uses

We may use personal or business information to provide the services you've requested, including services that display customized content and advertising.

We may also use personal information or business information for auditing, research and analysis to operate and improve Small Island technologies and services.

We may share aggregated non-personal information with third parties outside of Small Island. When we use third parties to assist us in processing your personal information, we require that they comply with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. We may also share information with third parties in limited circumstances, including when complying with legal process, preventing fraud or imminent harm, and ensuring the security of our network and services. Small Island processes personal information on our servers in Ireland.

We offer a number of services that do not require you to register for an account or provide any personal information to us, such as Small Island Search. In order to provide our full range of services, we may collect the following types of information:
  • Information you provide - When you sign up for a Small Island website or other Small Island service or promotion that requires registration, we ask you for personal or business information (such as your name, email address and an account password). For certain services, such as our advertising programs, we may also request credit card or other payment account information which we maintain in encrypted form on secure servers. We may combine the information you submit under your account with information from other Small Island services or third parties in order to provide you with a better experience and to improve the quality of our services. For certain services, we may give you the opportunity to opt out of combining such information.
  • Small Island cookies - When you visit Small Island, we may send one or more cookies - a small file containing a string of characters - to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. We use cookies to improve the quality of our service by storing user preferences and tracking user trends, such as how people search. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some Small Island features and services may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.
  • Log information - When you use Small Island services, our servers automatically record information that your browser sends whenever you visit a website. These server logs may include information such as your web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
  • User communications - When you send email or other communication to Small Island, we may retain those communications in order to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services.
  • Affiliated sites - We offer some of our services in connection with other web sites. Personal information that you provide to those sites may be sent to Small Island in order to deliver the service. We process such information in accordance with this Policy. The affiliated sites may have different privacy practices and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.

Choices for personal information

When you sign up for a particular service that requires registration, we ask you to provide personal information. If we use this information in a manner different than the purpose for which it was collected, then we will ask for your consent prior to such use.
