How we get the personal information
Most of the personal information we process is provided to us directly by you for one of the reasons outlined in “How we use your information and why we have it”. We also receive personal information indirectly, from the following sources in the following scenarios:
Logging practices: JECASA LTD automatically records the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of visitors. The IP address is a unique number assigned to every computer on the internet. Generally, an IP address changes each time you connect to the internet (it is a "dynamic" address). Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection, depending on your individual circumstance, the IP address that we collect may contain information that could be deemed identifiable. This is because, with some broadband connections, your IP address doesn't change (it is "static") and could be associated with your personal computer.
As well as recording the IP addresses of users, JECASA LTD may also keep track of sites that users visited immediately prior to visiting JECASA LTD's website and the search terms they used to find it. We keep track of the pages visited on JECASA LTD's website, the amount of time spent on those pages and the types of searches done on them. Your searches remain confidential and anonymous. JECASA LTD uses this information only for statistical purposes to find out which pages users find most useful and to improve the website.
JECASA LTD also captures and stores information that you transmit. This may include:
-
Browser/Device type/version
-
Operating system used
-
Media Access Control (MAC) address
-
Date and time of the server request
-
Volume of data transferred
​
Cookies and web beacons: Cookies and web beacons are electronic placeholders that are placed on your device by websites to track your individual movements on that website over time. JECASA LTD uses both session-based cookies (which last only for the duration of the user's session) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device and provides information about the session you are in and waits for the next time you use that site again).
These cookies and web beacons provide useful information to JECASA LTD, enabling us to recognize repeat users, facilitate the user's access to and use of our sites, allows us to track usage behaviour, and to balance the usage of our websites on all JECASA LTD web servers.
Tracking cookies, third-party cookies, and other technologies such as web beacons may be used to process additional information, enable non-core functionalities on the JECASA LTD website and enable third-party functions (such as a social media "share" link). We may also include web beacons and other similar technology in promotional email messages to determine whether the messages have been opened.
