IP addresses and cookies

We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns, and does not identify any individual.

For the same reason, we may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie file which is stored on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. They help us to improve our site and to deliver a better and more personalised service. They enable us:

  • To speed up your searches.
  • To recognise you when you return to our site.

You can adjust the settings on your computer to decline any cookies if you wish. This can easily be done by activating the reject cookies setting on your computer. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our site. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you log on to our site.

Please note that our advertisers may also use cookies, over which we have no control. Such cookies (if used) would be downloaded once you click on advertisements on our website.

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

Uses made of the information

We use information held about you in the following ways:

  • To ensure that content from our site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.
  • To issue receipts for donations, where you have consented to be contacted for such purposes.
  • To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and us.

When a donation is made, we give the charity your details so that they can forward you a thank you receipt only. They do not have permission to contact you for any other reason other than the intended purpose as stated.

Disclosure of your information

We will not disclose your personal information to any other party other than in accordance with this Privacy Policy and in the circumstances detailed below:

  • If Giveacar or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets.
  • If we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal obligation, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Giveacar, our customers, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

I was sad this summer to say goodbye to my late mother's jaunty ancient blue car. But as it went to its scrapyard in the sky it made me happy that its last journey would help, through the tiny local charity Faith In Water, six girls in Uganda to each have a pack of reusable sanitary pads, which will give them up to three years use and freedom from worry and access to education, as well as two pairs of underwear and laundry soap each. Just £66 but it will make a difference to six young people. Everything was so smoothly done - highly recommend. Thank you Giveacar.
