Once you choose to provide us with any information by which you can be identified, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement and the Data Protection Act 1998.
This privacy statement sets out how Earlyworld Limited complies with data protection requirements. It applies to the entire web site. We may change this privacy statement from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure you are happy with any changes. By visiting earlyworld.co.uk, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this privacy statement.
What we collect
Information you give us: where you make a booking online we will collect your name, contact details (telephone, mail and e-mail addresses) and your child's name and date of birth.
Automatic information: we receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many web sites, we use cookies and we obtain certain types of information when your web browser accesses earlyworld.co.uk, e.g. the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the internet, browser type and version and operating system and platform.
What we do with the information we gather
We use this information to process your booking. This will include sending you an e-mail to confirm your booking and may include additional communication should we need to contact regarding specific requirements or any difficulty with your booking. We do not pass this information on to any other third parties.
We do not collect any of your financial details, e.g. credit or debit card number. When booking online you will be redirected to the Bank of Scotland in order to provide credit or debit card information.
How secure is information about me?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input through our payment gateway, Secure Trading.
We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in connection with the collection, storage and disclosure of personally identifiable customer information. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we disclose personal information to you.
What if you think we have incorrect information or you would like a copy of the information we hold about you?
You may request details of personal information that we hold about you under the Data Protection Act 1998. A small fee will be payable. This fee will not exceed £10 per data subject.

How we use cookies
A cookie is a piece of text, which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, your browser adds that text in a small file. Cookies allow web applications to recognise your browser and respond to you as an individual. For example, when you visit an electronic store, a cookie makes it easier to shop, by allowing you to place things into a shopping basket; the basket itself is not the cookie, the cookie is placed on your hard drive and keeps track of your basket.
The type of information we collect includes the pages visited, a booking and value of the booking. This information helps us learn things such as what pages are most attractive to our visitors. Overall cookies help us provide a better web site, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us. The Help menu on the menu bar of most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have your browser notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies altogether.
Are children allowed to use earlyworld.co.uk?
Bookings may only be made by adults. If you are under 18, you may use earlyworld.co.uk only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
