What Personal Information about its visitors Does James Hopkins Trust Gather?

The information we learn from visitors helps us personalise and continually improve your experience at James Hopkins Trust.

We use the information to communicate with you about offers, products and services, update our records and generally maintain your accounts with us, display content such as customer reviews and recommend businesses and services that might be of interest to you.

Here are the types of information we gather.

Information You Give Us:

We receive and store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customising future offers for you, improving our site and communicating with you.

Automatic Information:

We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we use “cookies” and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses James Hopkins Trust. Several companies offer utilities designed to help you visit websites anonymously. Although we will not be able to provide you with a personalised experience at James Hopkins Trust if we cannot recognise you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.

E-mail Communications:

To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from James Hopkins Trust if your computer supports such capabilities. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please let us know by either contacting us or unsubscribe using the link at the bottom of an e-mail.

What about Cookies?

Cookies are most often small text files that websites may put on your computer whilst you are browsing. Cookies are used for many different purposes. For example, they can:

  • help search engines remember that you want your search results in English;
  • help a website remember your preferences so that you don’t need to customise it every time;
  • help our website to deliver a better service by showing you the content most relevant to you;
  • identify and resolve errors so that the site is improved for everybody;
  • analyse how well a website is performing.

The most common function of cookies is to remember bits of information that help make browsing the web easier and more hassle-free for you.

Here is an example of a cookie:

  • Name: AnyCookieName
  • Value: 1234a5b678d9
  • Domain: www.yourwebsitename.com
  • Expires: 17th May 2016

The cookie explained:

  • Name = The name of the cookie
  • Value = The piece of information that the cookie is created to store
  • Domain = The website where the cookie is used
  • Expires = The date when the cookie will be deleted from your web browser

All modern browsers do have tools to help you delete or block cookies. But it’s important to remember that many websites need cookies to function properly. By deleting or blocking cookies, you could also block certain personalised features and you may not be able to take full advantage of some of the website’s features.
