Analysing the data

 We use third-party services, including – but not limited to – Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log data and details of visitor behaviour patterns.  We do this to find out such things as the number of visitors to each part of the website.

Your data may be shared internally within the company. This includes members of the Head Office team and Managers at Depots.

We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your express permission or are required by law. We will not use your personal information to send you promotional information from third parties.

In addition, we may need to share your personal information with a regulator or otherwise to comply with the law.

Protecting your data

Pegasus Couriers takes the security of your data seriously. We have internal policies and controls in place to ensure that your data is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed except by our personnel in the proper performance of their duties.

We have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect.  We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificates to verify our identity to your browser and to encrypt any data collected.

How long we keep your data

We will hold your information on our server for up to two months. Our hosting server will automatically delete all your data within this time period.

When your information is no longer required, we will ensure it is disposed of in a secure manner.

Where you contribute material to us, e.g. user-generated content or in response to a particular campaign, we will only keep your content for as long as is reasonably required for the purpose(s) for which it was submitted unless otherwise stated at the point of generation.

You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
