LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES

Our website may provide links to other websites or resources which may be of interest to you. However, since these websites are run by third parties they may operate under different privacy practices or none at all. We have no control over the privacy polices of third parties, or indeed their use or disclosure of your personal information. Consequently, we cannot be held liable for any breaches of your privacy by others and we make no guarantees with regard to any third party websites.

SECURITY

Your information is kept on a secure server. Our website also uses the latest encryption technology (SSL) methods to ensure your personal and financial information is kept safe and secure. One easy indication of this is apparent when you move to the Checkout where the webpage URL changes from http:// to https://. The insertion of ‘s’ confirms you have reached the secure part of our website. Your card number will also be encrypted when transmitted over the internet to help protect you in the unlikely event that your information is intercepted by a third party.

We will take all reasonable care to ensure your details are kept secure. However, in the absence of negligence by Run-Fast we cannot be held liable for any loss you may suffer in the event that a third party obtains unauthorised access to any information you provide when using our website.
