Marco Polo Project Website Privacy Statement
Throughout this Website Privacy Statement, reference to your ‘personal information’ means information which identifies you as an individual, or from which your identity can be reasonably ascertained. Your home address, home telephone number and email address are examples of personal information.
Any changes to this Website Privacy Statement will be posted on the Marco Polo Project website (hereafter “the site”). We encourage you to review this Statement from time to time.
The following information pertains to your privacy and the site.
1.1.1 Anonymous Access to this Website
You can access and browse the site without disclosing personal information. We will only collect personal information from you with your consent.
1.1.2 Collection and Use of Personal Information
This site does not collect or use personal information except that which you choose to provide in the subscription process, in email messages or in comments.
We will only record your email address and other contact details if you complete an online form or send us an email message. This information will only be used to respond to your enquiry or feedback, and will not be added to a mailing list unless specifically requested. We will not use your personal information for any other purpose.
If you provide us with personal information about someone else, for example in an email message or comment, you must tell them about our website privacy statement and ensure that they do not object to their personal information being disclosed to us.
For subscription purposes, the Marco Polo project collects and uses your personal information to deliver the services you have requested.
We won’t send you any e-mails unless you tell us you want them.
We may not be able to provide the full range of services through the site if we are not provided with the information outlined above.

1.1.5 Internet Security
There are risks associated with transmitting information over the internet. We use a number of mechanisms to protect the security and integrity of your personal information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed as completely secure. While we strive to protect such information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, therefore you do so at your own risk.
If you are concerned about conveying sensitive information to the Marco Polo Project over the internet, you may prefer to contact us by mail or telephone.

Once any personal information comes into our possession, we will take reasonable steps to protect that information from misuse and loss, and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.
