The Woodland Trust is committed to safeguarding the privacy of our website visitors. This policy sets out how we will treat your personal information and applies to all websites operated by the Woodland Trust. Our websites are listed below.
1 What information do we collect?
We may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal data:
(a) information about your computer and about your visits to and use of our websites, such as your IP address, geographical location, browser type, referral source, length of visit and number of page views
(b) information relating to any transactions carried out between you and us on or in relation to our websites, including information relating to any purchases you make of our goods or services
(c) information that you provide to us for the purpose of registering with us eg Nature’s Calendar

2 Do we use cookies?
The Woodland Trust websites use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize woodlandtrust.org.uk pages, or register with woodlandtrust.org.uk site or services, a cookie helps woodlandtrust.org.uk to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same woodlandtrust.org.uk web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the woodlandtrust.org.uk features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the woodlandtrust.org.uk services or web sites you visit.

We will never sell or rent your personal data to other organisations though we occasionally agree to exchange member’s names with other, sympathetic partners. Every member has the opportunity to opt out of these exchanges at the point of joining The Woodland Trust and can let us know at any time if any of our communications are unwelcome.
