Privacy Statement

Data Protection

Your privacy is important to OCC and we are committed to respecting information about you.  We are registered under the Data Protection Act (Notification No. Z7152789) and comply with its provisions.

Personal Information

In general, you can visit OCC on the Web without telling us who you are and without revealing any information about yourself.

There are times, however, when we may request information from you such as your name, address or e-mail address, for example, if we hope to correspond with you.

Before collecting any personal details, OCC will advise you how the information will be used and you will always be given the option of declining to give personal information to us. Any information that you agree to give us will be protected by technical and organisational processes such as using encryption for credit card numbers to ensure your information is secure and accurate.

Privacy Technology

Technology will increasingly provide you with more control over your personal information and OCC actively supports the development of privacy technologies to help achieve these goals.

In this way, we can help to create greater trust and confidence in the way personal information is handled.
