Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that. However, you may not be able to take full advantage of our Website if you do so. Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means they cannot be used to track your movements around the web.

Security

Funderland places the highest level of importance on the security of all information associated with our customers. We have security measures in place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of customer data under our control. For example, our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorised personnel have access to user information. With regard to our Website, we use secure server software (SSL) to encrypt financial information you input. While we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of data will not occur, we use our best efforts and industry standards to prevent this.

 

Where is the information stored?

Information which you submit via our Websites or our telephone services is stored on a computer located in the United States of America. This is necessary in order to process the information and to send you any information you have requested. Information submitted by you may be transferred by us to our other offices and to reputable third party suppliers, which may be situated outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Not all countries outside the EEA have data protection or privacy laws. In addition, if you use our Services while you are outside the EEA, your information may be transferred outside the EEA in order to provide you with those Services.

 

What are cookies?

Most websites need to collect basic information on their users to work properly. To do this, websites - including this one - create small text files known as cookies on their users' devices.

There are a lot of different cookies which do a lot of different jobs. They can be used to remember your preferences on sites you visit often, to remember which products are in your online shopping baskets, and to make sure that the online adverts that you see are relevant to you.

Most of the data that cookies collect is anonymous. However, some of it is designed to detect patterns in site usage, user behaviour and approximate location to improve the experience of our users. Information collected by cookies is not personally identifiable.

The cookies used by Funderland can be categorised as essential, performance, advertising or functional. You can find out more about the cookies we use and why we use them below.
