Privacy Policy
At wiganworld, we recognise that privacy of your personal information is important. Here is information on what types of personal information we receive and collect when you visit our website, and how we safeguard your information. We never sell your personal information to third parties.
 
Log Files
As with most other websites, we collect data contained in log files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as Virgin or BT), the browser you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited our site and which pages you visited throughout our site.
 
Cookies and Web Beacons
We do use cookies to store information, such as your user name when you visit our site for ease of posting messages.
 
We also use third party advertisements to support our site. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP , the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing Wigan related ads if you are a Wiganer, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites).
 
DoubleClick DART cookies
We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google's DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests ("interest based targeting"). The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history (For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Spain, you may see Spanish hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about cooking). DART uses "non personally identifiable information". It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx.
 
You can chose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you are able to interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or messageboards.
 
To read more about cookies and to disable / manage cookies visit www.aboutcookies.org.
 
Deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently opted out of any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next time you visit a site running the advertisements, a new cookie will be added.
