At XDS DataCentres we take your privacy extremely seriously and this Privacy Notice explains the what, how, and why of the data that we collect when you visit our Website. It also explains the specific ways that we use and disclose that information.
The Data Protection Act (DPA), Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) seek to protect and enhance the rights of individuals.

When we say “you” or “Data Subject” we are referring to a living natural person who visits our websites. “Personal Data” means any data that identifies or can be used to identify you or any person, directly or indirectly and that is not already in the public domain.

Similar to other commercial websites, our Website uses a technology called “cookies” and web server logs to collect information about how our Website is used.
Cookies are small text files that are stored by web browsers on your computer or mobile phone. When you visit a website, that site’s server asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. These files often include an anonymous unique identifier.
Cookies and web server logs allow websites to store things like user preferences, time and date of visits and pages views to analyse web traffic.

This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and allows us to improve our Website in order to tailor it to user’s needs. We only use this data for statistical purposes after which the data is removed.
