INFORMATION THAT THIS WEBSITE COLLECTS AND WHY WE COLLECT IT

Google Analytics
Like most websites, this site uses Google Analytics (GA) to track user interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using our site, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to see their journey through the website.

Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device, internet browser and operating system, none of this information personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP address which could be used to personally identify you but Google do not grant us access to this.

GA makes use of cookies, disabling cookies on your internet browser will stop GA from tracking any part of your visit to pages within this website.

Contact and registration forms
Should you choose to contact us using the contact form on our CONTACT page, we will store some of your data on our web server.

Our server is provided by Amazon AWS, using Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2). EC2 provides a number of security features to keep your data safe including:

• Encryption
• Monitoring and logging
• Access control
• EU-based data centres that comply with the relevant EU legislation surrounding data security and protection
• Amazon.com, Inc. is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield and AWS is covered under this certification

Our site is also served over HTTPS using an SSL certificate. HTTPS is a secure version of HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP for short). The ‘S’ stands for Secure. This is a method for ensuring secure communication between a user’s browser and our web server. It is often recognised as showing a padlock in the browser window to indicate a secure connection.

Our website will also email the relevant member of Sportarm Mallorca staff when a form is submitted. This data will be collated into an email and sent to us over the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Our SMTP servers are protected by TLS (sometimes known as SSL) meaning that the email content is encrypted using SHA-2, 256-bit cryptography before being sent across the internet. The email content is then decrypted by our local computers and devices.

Email newsletter
If you choose to join our email newsletter database, the email address that you submit to us will be forwarded to MailChimp who provide us with our email marketing platform. We consider MailChimp to be a third party data processor.
