Privacy Policy

Introduction

Who we are

In this document, “we” or “us” refers to the FAMS Group of companies, which are registered in Angola, Zimbabwe, Mauritius and the Isle of Man.

This policy governs the way we treat your personal information collected electronically when you use our website.

We are committed to respecting the privacy of your personal data.

Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell, or disclose to a third party, any personally identifiable information collected on this site.

Here is a list of the information we collect from you, either through our web site or as provided to us in some other way, and why it is necessary to collect it.

Business and personal information

This includes basic identification and contact information, such as your name and contact details and includes all information given to us in the course of your business and ours, such as information you give us in your capacity as our client. We undertake to preserve the confidentiality of the information and of the terms of our relationship. It is not used for any other purpose.

This information is used:

to provide you with the services which you request;
for verifying your identity for security purposes;
for marketing our services and products;
information which does not identify any individual may be used in a general way by us or third parties, relating to demographics or usage of a page or service.

We keep information, which forms part of our business record for a minimum of six years. That is because we may need it in some way to support a claim or defence in court.

Market place information

When we obtain information from you specifically to enable you to buy a service offered on our web site by another individual or business, we assume that in giving us your information, you are also giving us permission to pass it to the relevant individual.

Your domain name and e-mail address

This information is recognized by our servers and the pages that you visit are recorded. We shall not under any circumstances, divulge your e-mail address to any person who is not an employee or contractor of ours and who does not need to know, either generally or specifically.

This information is used:

to correspond with you or deal with you as our client;
in a collective way not referable to any particular individual, for the purpose of quality control and improvement of our site;
to send you news about the services to which you have signed up;
to inform you about other services or services of sister web sites.

Information you post on our website

Information you send to us by posting to a forum or blog or in your advertisement, is stored on our servers. We do not specifically use that information except to allow it to be read, but we reserve the right to use it in any way we decide.

Website usage information

We may use software embedded in our website (such as JavaScript) to collect information about pages you view and how you have reached them, what you do when you visit a page, the length of time you remain on the page, and how we perform in providing content to you.

Third party content

Our web site is a publishing medium where anyone may register and publish personal information. We invite you to report any unauthorized content and are committed to following appropriate procedures to remove infringing content from the service if we receive proper notice.

Information we obtain from third parties

Although we do not disclose your personal information to any third party (except as set out in this notice), we do receive data which is indirectly made up from your personal information, from software services such as Google Analytics and others. No such information is identifiable to you.

Content you provide to us with a view to be used by third party

If you provide information to us with a view to it being read, copied, downloaded or used by other people, we accept no responsibility for what that third party may do with it.
