Information is gathered in two ways: (1) indirectly (for example, through our website or service technology); and (2) directly (for example, when you provide information on various pages of the website or when you reply to any messages that we may send you as a result of our services).
One example of information we collect indirectly is through Internet access logs.

We may also use your IP address to determine whether you are accessing our services from the UK, or any other country. We use this information to enhance your user experience. Alternatively we may also use this information to block any disruptive use of our websites and services that may otherwise reduce the quality of use and access for legitimate and fair users of our websites and services.
