In general, the personal information YourAnswer collects includes (but is not limited to) name, address, contact details, gender, occupation, in some cases membership of professional associations and, where relevant, financial information.

Personal Information you provide: we store the personal information you give to YourAnswer in our information systems. You may provide information when you request or acquire a product or service from YourAnswer or its related companies, provide a product or service to YourAnswer, complete a survey or questionnaire, participate in forums or when you communicate with YourAnswer by email, telephone or in writing (for example if you contact Customer Service or provide feedback).

Automatic collection: we may use a feature of your browser called a cookie to assign your computer a ‘User ID’. Cookies contain information by which YourAnswer can identify your computer to our servers. You may configure your browser so that you are notified before a cookie is downloaded or so that your browser does not accept cookies. YourAnswer may use the information contained in cookies to identify if a user has previously requested a web page provided by YourAnswer or a service provided by YourAnswer to its customers. YourAnswer and its customers may also automatically collect information regarding search terms that you used to identify a requested web page and the purchases that you make from websites where YourAnswer is providing a service to the website operator. The information gathered in this manner is used to build statistical and other information which does not identify you personally to YourAnswer, its customers or other third parties.

Indirect collection: YourAnswer endeavors to collect personal information about an individual only from that individual. In some circumstances YourAnswer may obtain personal information from a third party such as a conference organizer. If you provide personal information about another person to YourAnswer, YourAnswer requires that you inform that person you have done so and provide them with a copy of this Policy.
