What Personal Information About Customers Does Sheppard’s Irish Auction House Gather?

The information we learn from customers helps us personalise and continually improve your online experience at sheppards.ie and our
other websites. Here are the types of information we gather:

Information You Give Us:

We receive and store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide certain information,
but then you might not be able to take advantage of many of our features. Where a user voluntarily provides personal information, the data
will be used for analysis, research or customer service purposes only. Any personal data provided by you to us will be held in accordance with
the data protection principles set out in the Data Protection (Amendment) Act, 2003, the Data Protection Act, 1988, Electronic Commerce Act, 2000,
and other relevant EU and Irish legislation.
We do not store any record of your credit card or Laser number.
Sheppard’s Irish Auction House assures you that the identity of all who contact us through this website is kept confidential: we do not rent, sell,
or exchange mailing lists, or otherwise disclose such information to third parties, except as may be required by law, or through voluntary cooperation
with law enforcement authorities if we judge that such cooperation is necessary to combat fraud or other crime.

Automatic Information:

For general web browsing no personal information is revealed to us, although certain statistical information is available to us from our website logs.
For example, like many websites, we obtain certain types of information when your web browser (browsers are pieces of software that allow you to access
the internet; examples include: Internet Explorer, Netscape, Google, Mozilla, etc.) accesses sheppards.ie or our other websites. See below for examples.

Sheppard’s Irish Auction House will make no attempt to identify individual visitors or to associate the technical details listed above with any individual,
except in cases where criminal activity has taken place (i.e. in response to a “hacking” incident). It is the policy of Sheppard’s Irish Auction House never
to disclose such technical information in respect of individual website visitors to a third party (except for law-enforcement bodies and then only in
response to illegal activity such as “hacking”; also our Internet Service Provider which records such data on our behalf and which is bound by confidentiality
provisions in this regard), unless obliged to disclose such information by a rule of law. The technical information will be used only by
Sheppard’s Irish Auction House, and only for statistical and other administrative purposes. You should note that technical details, which we
cannot associate with any identifiable individual, do not constitute “personal data” for the purposes of the Data Protection Acts, 1988 & 2003.
