These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting on our sites, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly.

Marketing
We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you.

Where you have not previously bought from us but have registered your details with us (for example by signing up for a newsletter or opting in on a free download), we will only send you marketing communications if you opted into receiving marketing at the time and so given us your express consent (which you may withdraw at any time – see Opting out below).
Navigational Information
Cookies
Compass Intelligence uses cookies or similar technologies to analyze trends, administer the website, track users’ movements around the website, and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.
We use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web server. Cookies are not used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a Web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The use of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages on our Websites, or register for services, a cookie helps us to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. When you return to the same Website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can efficiently use the customized features.
You can accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically allow cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to reject cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of Compass Intelligence Services or Websites you visit. Compass Intelligence keeps track of the Websites and pages you visit within Compass Intelligence, to determine what portion of the website(s) is the most popular or most used. This data is used to deliver customized content and promotions within Compass Intelligence website(s) to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.
Log Files
We may collect demographic information, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests, and favorites using log files that are not associated with your name or other personal data. There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by us. This information can include your IP address, browser type, domain names, internet service provider (ISP), the files viewed on our site (e.g., HTML pages, graphics, etc.), operating system, clickstream data, access times and referring website addresses. For these purposes, we do link this automatically-collected data to Personal data such as name, email address, address, and phone number.

For example, details of your orders will be kept for as long as we need to retain that data to comply with our legal and regulatory requirements.
In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
Time Limit to Respond
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
