General

If you provide us with personal information (your name, postal address, telephone, fax, or email address), or have done so in the past, via our websites, our publications or surveys, we may use it to send you updates on our latest products and promotions, or to contact you so that we may learn more about our customers. We may also share this information with other companies that offer products or services to the textile industry which could be of interest to you. If you do not want companies other than WTP to contact you, you can choose to "opt out," and WTP will respect your wishes.

Information you supply in transactions

If you have supplied us with personal and financial information, (such as your credit card or bank details) in a transaction, e.g. a subscription to one of our publications, we will use this information in the normal conduct of our business relationship with you.



Contact information from order forms, either on our website or in printed form, is used to send orders. Financial information is used to bill you for the products and services you order from us.



WTP also maintains intermediary relationships with credit card and shipping companies and as part of our business process provides these companies with customer information in order to conduct business.

Published Information

WTP will not use name and/or business details collected through the normal course of business in our directory publications without your consent. We will contact you directly to ask for your consent.



If you or another person/organisation has provided us with your business details for inclusion our Directory publications, then this information is now in the public domain and WTP has no control over the privacy practices of third parties accessing this information. We may contact you from time-to-time to ensure that the information in a particular directory is accurate.



Personal information that you provide when submitting business details for one of our publications will not be published. It is used for administrative purposes only.

Communities

Your personal details are protected when you use an Inteletex Community. Messages you post to the Community are distributed with your User Name but without your Email address. All messages are checked to ensure that they are appropriate to the Community before distribution.

Opt out

If you do not want companies other than WTP to contact you, you can choose to "opt out?. All data collection forms on WTP?s website, and printed order forms produced after 31/03/2001, include an ?opt out?.



Please note, however, that if you provide WTP with inconsistent privacy preferences (for example, by indicating on one occasion that third parties may contact you and indicating on another occasion that they may not), or if your name and/or business details appear in one or more of our publications, WTP cannot guarantee that your most recent privacy preference will be honoured.

Changes to this statement

WTP's privacy statement is subject to change at any time. WTP will post changes to this statement on our websites 30 days prior to implementing any major changes.
