Speedo and/or any of its international partners, subsidiaries or
associated companies ("Speedo" or "we" or "us") take our
relationship with all our users seriously, and this includes how we
handle the data you give us.
Speedo is committed to meeting the requirements of all relevant
laws and codes including the Data Protection Act 1998 and is
registered with the Information Commission under registration
number Z6162114 as a Data Controller.
This Privacy Policy sets out the ways we process any personal
data collected via our Website.
-
When do we collect personal information?
Most of our Website is free for you to browse through and read.
There are a few occasions when we ask you to fill in a form and
give us some information about yourself. We only ask for your
personal information for the following reasons:
-
If you want to create or update your personal profile;
-
If you want to create a club profile;
-
If you want to create a performance tip, blog or story;
-
If you want to comment on the performance tips, podcasts, blogs,
story or news;
-
If you want to take part in a prize draw or competition;
-
If you want to contact us, send us an email or offer feedback;
or
-
If you want to receive news and exclusive offers via email.
-
If you want to receive an update when your uploaded content has
been approved and published by a moderator.
We only collect personal information (such as your name, email
address or country of residence) if you choose to provide that
information to us in response to our request.
-
What do we do with the information?
Providing personal information is up to you. We collect personal
information to enter you in contests and notify you of results, to
e-mail you with updates, news and special offers, to respond to
your questions or comments, or to register you for certain features
on the Website.
-
Who processes my information?
Speedo (and those people or companies employed by Speedo who
help make this Website, its content and its services) will process
and use your personal information in order to respond to your
feedback - like writing a news feature because you asked for it,
running a new competition or responding to problems, improving our
services and gearing what we do to suit your requirements
further.
Beyond this, we will not share your information with any other
company without your consent unless we are required to do so by
law, if you have won a prize or if you have made a request for
specific information. If you give us consent then we may share your
information with our partners, subsidiaries or subsidiary companies
in order that they can contact you with information, promotions,
products, services and offers that may be interesting to you.
We will never sell your information to any other company.
We make sure that if you sign up to an Unforgettable Swims
update, you only get an Unforgettable Swims update.
-
Asking your permission
If you register on the Website we ask you to let us know if you
would like receive further information or updates from us via
email. We will only send you an email update if you request to
receive it. We don't want to bombard your inbox, so the most number
of updates we will send you is one a week - but normally it is only
one every fortnight or less. (We might send you a more frequent
update if a really cool event or offer is coming up that you might
be interested in).
-
What if you change your mind?
We always provide you with the opportunity to opt in or out of
receiving communication via email. You can do also this on the
website by logging in and going to your profile.
-
How to unsubscribe
Our policy is to allow users to unsubscribe from our regular
emails at any time. You can do this by clicking on the Unsubscribe
link at the bottom of the email you've received.
However, should you experience any problems, please contact our
Unforgettable Swims Team unforgettableswims@speedo.com
who will assist you.
If you have asked us to stop sending emails, and this hasn't
happened, it may be because the email address to which we are
sending them is not the same as the address you sent your request
from. Please check the address we are using and include this
information in your request. The easiest way to do this is to
return to us the whole of the unwanted email. The address we are
sending to is included at the bottom of the message.

Use of cookies
We may use cookies in order to provide a better service or
identify which pages on the Website are of special interest. A
cookie is a small piece of information which a Website stores via
your web browser on your PC and which can later be retrieved.
Cookies cannot be read by a Website other than the one which set
it. The main objective is to identify users and personalise their
visit by customising web pages for them, for example by welcoming
them by name next time they visit the same website. Most cookies
last only through one session or visit to our Website. None will
contain information that will enable anyone to contact you via
telephone, e-mail, or any other means. You can set up your web
browser to inform you when cookies are set or to prevent cookies
form being set.
-
What do we do to safeguard personal information?
We have instituted safeguards to check that our internal
procedures meet our high policy standards. We also use our best
efforts to be sure that third parties who work with us as our
agents to make this Website and its contents available to you, and
to fulfil your orders and requests, agree to protect personal
information that they must access in order to serve our Website and
our visitors. We limit access to personal information about you to
employees who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with
that information to provide products or services to you or in order
to do their jobs.
-
Links to other Websites
We may offer links to other websites we use and recommend.
However, we are not responsible for the content or information
collection policies of websites operated by other companies. If you
visit another website, we advise you to review their privacy and
other policies.

Changes to our Privacy Policy
Any changes to the Privacy Policy will be posted here.
If Speedo wishes to make material changes to the way we use your
personal information we will ask for your consent before we do
so.

Anything else I should know?
Except as otherwise provided, we will NOT disclose any
information processed by us to any third party, unless required to
do so by law.
If you have any questions, wish to access, update or delete
information, wish to opt out of receiving future communications, or
have questions about our privacy policy, please contact the Website
