They are also used after you have logged on as part of that process.

Our servers use two different types of cookies. The first type is known as a "session-based" cookie and is allocated to your PC only for the duration of your visit to our website. This cookie automatically expires when you close down your browser.

We know, for instance, how many visitors there are to our website, when they visited, for how long and to which areas of our website they went. We do not share this information with other companies.
Every computer connected to the internet is provided with a domain name and an IP address. When a visitor requests a page from within the Piusishop website, our web servers automatically identify and log the HTTP request that is made to our web server. This information reveals nothing personal about you. In fact, the only information that we automatically gather and log is as follows:-
The IP address of the site that may have referred you.
* Your IP address* The web page that you may have linked to us from, if any
* The product identifier for version and make of browser (e.g. Internet Explorer 7.0)
* The Operating System platform that you may be running (e.g. Macintosh or Windows)
* Search words or terms that are passed from a search engine
There is absolutely nothing unusual about the information just described - the practice of collecting this data has been generally standardised by nearly every web server on the internet today.
We do not use any of this information to identify individuals visiting our website.
15. Will Piusishop disclose the information collected to Third Parties?
Piusishop does not disclose buyers' information to third parties other than when order details are processed as part of the order fulfilment. In this case, the third party will not disclose any of the details to any other third party.
Piusishop will disclose your personal information or any of its log file information only when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such actions are necessary to:
- Conform to the edicts of the law or comply with a legal process served on Piusishop
- Protect and defend the rights or property of Piusishop, or visitors to the Piusishop website
- Identify persons who may be violating the law, the legal notice, or the rights of third parties
- Co-operate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities
Piusishop uses reasonable precautions to keep the information disclosed to us secure. Furthermore, we are not responsible for any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties that receive the information. Where Piusishop also provides "links" to other websites on the internet, we are not responsible for their Privacy Policies or how those websites manage information about their users. We strongly urge you to check with those websites to determine their Privacy Policy.
