This page describes the main parts of OPM’s policy on website visitors’ privacy and the collection of information, and our general copyright policy.

Privacy policy

The privacy policy described below is designed to tell you how this site collects, uses, and discloses any information you may provide us via the site. By using this site, you acknowledge that you have reviewed, and agree to, the terms of this privacy policy and the terms of use. If you do not agree to this privacy policy and the terms of use, do not use this site.

We are registered under the Data Protection Act, registration no Z5095617.

Links to other sites

This privacy policy applies only to this site. Although we include links to other websites, those websites are not covered by this privacy policy. We do not take any responsibility for information that another site may collect about you. If you have any concerns, you should check that site’s policy too.

Making information available to other organisations

We do not sell or give away to other organisations or individuals any information we collect in the course of our work. We will not pass on your details without first asking (and getting) your permission.

If you register on one of our programmes, request our newsletter, apply for a job or respond in other ways to our website, we may hold personal details in a database on our server and that of our website hosting company. We will not use your details for any purpose other than that we have told you about, and we have the assurance of the hosting company that they will not do so either. We have security measures in place to protect against intrusions, viruses and so on. We urge you to make sure that your own computer or computer network has up-to-date security.

If you receive an unsolicited email from us, your details will have come either from a previous occasion when we have worked together (for instance, if you are on our list of clients, or have been involved in one of our projects), or because your organisation has given your details to us in the course of a project, or you have subscribed to our e-newsletter at some time. If you are unhappy with us having your details, let us know by email or phone.

Copyright

We protect our own copyright and, as a matter of policy, will not knowingly infringe that of other people. This applies to all our work: our website, our programme materials, our work for clients, and so on.

If you believe we may be using materials that rightly belong to you, and we have not entered into an agreement with you or credited you correctly, please email OPM's communications team. We will take steps to rectify the situation.
