Hello, and you're very welcome to the Privacy Policy for FreeOnMessageDomains.com. For our Data Protection Policy, please click here.
Introduction:
This policy sets out the different areas where user privacy is concerned and outlines the obligations & requirements of the users, the website and website owners. Furthermore, the way this website processes, stores and protects user data and information will also be detailed within this policy.
The website FreeOnMessageDomains.com
This website and its owners take a proactive approach to user privacy and ensure the necessary steps are taken to protect the privacy of its users throughout their visiting experience. This website complies with all national laws of the Republic of Ireland and requirements for user privacy.
Computer Cookies
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files saved to the user’s computer’s hard drive that track, save and store information about the user’s interactions and usage of the website. This allows FreeOnMessageDomains.com, through its server to provide the users with a tailored experience within this website.
What do we use cookies for?
We may use cookies to remember personal settings you have chosen at our website. In no other context do we use cookies to collect information that identifies you personally. Most of the cookies we set are automatically deleted from your computer when you leave our website or shortly afterwards.
We use anonymous session cookies (short-term cookies that disappear when you close your browser) to help you navigate the website and make the most of the features.
Google Analytics
Current Google Analytics Status
FreeOnMessageDomains.com: Not running currently; never used.Should we use Google Analytics on FreeOnMessageDomains.com, it would help us to better understand how our visitors interact it. This software is provided by Google Analytics which uses cookies to track visitor usage. The software will save a cookie to your computer’s hard drive in order to track and monitor your engagement and usage of the website, but will not store, save or collect personal information.
Information from Google Analytics helps us to see how the website is performing. For example, we look at the bounce rate of the website. If 100 people visit our site, and 30 just look at the homepage and then immediately leave, that is a bounce rate of 30%. So a high bounce rate could tell us that changes we make to the design of our website are not helping the people who use our website. We may then revert to previous changes to the website. Another similar metric we would look would be "pages per user". If this is low, this could tell us design changes are not working well for our users. And vica versa.
We see this information on a total basis and is not linked specifically to you.
The Right to be Forgotten
Should users wish to deny the use and saving of cookies from this website onto their computer’s hard drive, they can take necessary steps within their web browser’s security settings to block all cookies from this website and its external serving vendors.
They also have the right to have their data removed from Google Analytics, should we run it on our website.
Please visit our data removal form and we will remove this data, if Google Analytics is turned on.
