(Last updated March 4, 2007)

this Privacy Policy to explain how it protects and manages the personal information
that it collects from you (the customer) online.
1. Consent
for Collection, Use and Disclosure
Your use of
the MyFavouritePubWalks.com site and/or your registration for MyFavouritePubWalks.com
products and services constitute your consent to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the

MyFavouritePubWalks.com
may occasionally update this Privacy Policy. When it does, MyFavouritePubWalks.com
will also revise the "last update" date at the top of this Privacy Policy. In
addition, MyFavouritePubWalks.com will seek a customer's prior consent, by email,
for any new uses or proposed disclosures of information collected from the customer
prior to the change. MyFavouritePubWalks.com will notify customers by email
of changes to this policy that will affect information collected from them in

not inform and obtain the consent of the customer, such as in connection with
an investigation of a breach of an agreement, contravention of laws, an emergency
where the life, health or security of an individual is threatened, the collection
of a debt or in compliance with the request of a law enforcement agency or a
court order.
A customer
may withdraw his or her consent for collection, use and disclosure at any time
either online using the "My Account" screen or by sending an email
to leigh@myfavouritepubwalks.com. Please note that, if you do, MyFavouritePubWalks.com
may suspend its provision of products and services to you. When you unsubscribe,
if you fall within the guarantee period for any MyFavouritePubWalks.com product
and you request a refund, the guarantee will be honoured.

telephone number, and information about your computer hardware and software
(e.g., IP address, operating system, browser type, domain name, URL, access
times, and referring web site addresses).
MyFavouritePubWalks.com
has implemented this Privacy Policy to protect personal information received
from its customers, and to respond to any inquiries. The Privacy Policy also
provides that MyFavouritePubWalks.com will use appropriate contractual means
to establish a comparable level of protection for personal information which
is sent for processing by third parties on MyFavouritePubWalks.com's behalf.

associates, service providers, suppliers and agents, acting on MyFavouritePubWalks.com's
behalf for any of the Identified Purposes;

if MyFavouritePubWalks.com has reason to believe that disclosure is necessary

injury to or interference (either intentionally or unintentionally) with MyFavouritePubWalks.com's
rights or property, other users of MyFavouritePubWalks.com's web site, products
or services, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities; and
(d) to respond
to judicial process and provide information to law enforcement agencies or in
connection with an investigation on matters related to public safety, as permitted
by law, or otherwise as required by law.
In addition,
as we continue to develop our business, we or our affiliates may sell or buy
other businesses or entities, or we may merge with another company. In such
transactions, personal information may be one of the transferred business assets.
Also, in the event that MyFavouritePubWalks.com or substantially all of its
assets are acquired, your personal information may be one of the transferred
assets.
Your information
may be stored and processed in the United Kingdom, or in any other country in
which MyFavouritePubWalks.com or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain
facilities. By using this web site, you consent to any such transfer of information
outside of your country.
After your
account becomes inactive (that is, if you request to be removed from our database),
MyFavouritePubWalks.com will keep your personal information in its archives.
Your information will then be used only as necessary for tax reasons or to prove
MyFavouritePubWalks.com's compliance with any applicable law.
6. Accuracy
of Personal Information
MyFavouritePubWalks.com
will use reasonable efforts to keep customer personal information accurate for
the Identified Purposes, and for minimizing the possibility of making inappropriate

If MyFavouritePubWalks.com
is not able to provide access to some aspect of a customer's personal information,
it will provide reasons for denying access such as; that by doing so would likely
reveal personal information about a third party, or that it is confidential
commercial information or attorney-client privileged communications, or that
the information relates to a breach of an agreement or a contravention of law,
or that its disclosure could reasonably be expected to threaten the life or
security of another individual.

the right to request that inaccurate or incomplete information be amended as
appropriate, by contacting MyFavouritePubWalks.com or the Privacy Officer as
described above. MyFavouritePubWalks.com will promptly correct such personal
