Disclaimers & Privacy Policy for the:
cheap-deal.co.uk site

(Please note that not all sections given below necessarily apply to cheap-deal.co.uk)

Free Adverts.

Where a site offers the ability to place free adverts in a classifieds section:

There may be sections where visitors to the site can post For Sale or Wanted adverts, free of charge. No-one at cheap-deal.co.uk can take responsibility for the accuracy of adverts placed on the site, or any legalities that may surround the content of an advert. This service is solely a means for posting free adverts, it is up to the reader to seek assurances about the advertiser before committing to buying anything, or selling anything to them. Caveat Emptor! cheap-deal.co.uk is not able to authenticate all adverts, or validate claims or assurances made within them (same as with printed adverts in the press). The site editor (ie me) reserves the right to remove any ads that are offensive or unsuitable for the page(s) they've been added to. If you spot an advert that I've missed, and that might cause someone offence, please let me know.

Not everyone out there is as honest as we'd like unfortunately, so I cannot emphasise enough the caution that must be taken when entering into any agreement (of whatever type) as a result of reading a particular advert or posting made on cheap-deal.co.uk.

External links.

No-one at cheap-deal.co.uk is responsible for content posted on external sites, linked to from cheap-deal.co.uk. Equally, inclusion of an external site's link, or reference to an external site and/or company/individual/service, is not a recommendation or endorsement of their product(s) and/or service(s).

Copyright.

Where the site displays images and/or photographs:

Many of the recent photos have been taken by myself at public events. Some images have been sent over by visitors to cheap-deal.co.uk, who want to contribute to the site. There may also a number of period photographs, that have been acquired from many sources (eg from visitors, the internet, secondhand & junk shops, antique shops) and so on. Wherever possible I have tried to credit the source of the images, although when dealing with vintage photographs this hasn't always been possible. If I have featured photos and/or other images that feature your property, or yourself or your family members in some way (perhaps walking behind a subject that I was taking a picture of), or your company, and you wish to have the image(s) removed from the website, again please drop me a line via the ableweb.co.uk site and I'll sort it out. This goes for anything else that may have been featured (period advertisements for instance).

Privacy.

Logs.
As with most other websites, some basic data about visitors to the site is contained in the cheap-deal.co.uk log files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as AOL or BT), the browser you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited our site and which pages you visited throughout our site.

Cookies.
Some third party sites featured on cheap-deal.co.uk through advertising, or linked to from cheap-deal.co.uk, may use an in-built feature of your web browser whereby the browser can send your computer a "cookie" at the request of the web page/site being viewed, or use web beacons. Cookies are generally used to make a note of your preferences, perhaps to 'remember' your name or personalised options when returning to a site. They are sometimes used for geotargeting purposes (showing New York ads to someone in New York, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites). You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is sent. Web beacons are also sometimes used to tailor a visitor's experience on a third party site, or collect statistical information on the browsing habits of its visitors. The cheap-deal.co.uk site itself does not use web beacons, although cookies are used occasionally. The stats programme (statcounter) used at cheap-deal.co.uk, that enables me to monitor the popularity of pages, and basic information about visits to the site pages, first time visitors and so on, uses cookie(s). External sites that do use these options will have more information about this in their own Terms and Conditions section(s).

DoubleClick DART cookies.
Links served by Google (if Google-served ads are shown on this site) also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests (”interest based targeting”). The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history (For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas, you may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about hockey). DART uses “non personally identifiable information”. It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx. Again, this only applies if Google-served ads (Adsense) adverts are shown on the site and page you're looking at.
