Heritage Malta believes strongly and is committed to the protection of your privacy. No information collected by us on this website will be sold, rented or loaned except as expressly stated in this Privacy Policy and consented to by you.

All personal information given to us through this website will only be held and used with care and in accordance with this policy and the Data Protection Act 2003.

Use of information

We will not collect any personal information about you, except where it is specifically and knowingly provided by you, for example when you register as a user of the website or request information or provide us with feedback on the website.

When personal information is collected it may be used to corroborate your identity and to enable us to provide you with the services we offer through this website and to process and fulfil requests for information or advice as well as to further develop this website to be useful to you and enable us to provide further services on this website in the future.

We may share non-personal aggregate statistics (group) data about visitors to this website, use and other traffic patterns with connected, or third parties. However, we do not sell or share any information outside Heritage Malta about you as an individual user of this website unless you agree to us doing so.

When you view this website by linking from another web page Heritage Malta may store the name of that web page for the purposes of internal administration and analysis.

“Cookies”

We do not use “cookies” on this website but may do so in the future. Cookies are small text files on your computer. Although cookies contain identifying information that identifies you personally, but they allow us to provide certain features and to recognise you when you return to our website. If you do not want to accept a cookie when you visit our website you should be able to change the settings on your browser to disable this function.

Links to other Websites

We may from time to time refer to or establish relations with companies, organisations and public bodies that will enable you to access their websites directly from our website. Each company, organisation or public body operates its own policy regarding the sale of personal data and the use of cookies. If you have a particular interest in, or concern regarding the way your data will be used, then you are advised to read the Privacy Statement on the relevant website.

We will try to provide you with links of high quality, reputable websites, which we believe will be of interest and relevant to you, but please note that such third party websites are not under our control; we do not contribute to the content of such websites and therefore cannot be retained responsible for them. When you click through to any of these websites you leave the area controlled by Heritage Malta. We cannot accept responsibility for any issues arising in connection with the third party’s use of your data, the website content or the services offered to you by these websites. If you agree to purchase goods or services offered through these third party web-sites, the resulting agreement shall be entirely between you and the relevant third party. Moreover, if you have followed a link from the Heritage Malta web-site to another web-site you may then be supplying data directly to a third party yourself.

Your Rights

In addition to these policies your personal data is protected in Malta by the Data Protection Act 2003. Under this Act we will only process any data we hold about you in a lawful and fair manner. We will keep your data securely to prevent unauthorised access by third parties, except with your prior express consent.

Your personal data may have to be disclosed if we were required to disclose it by law or as a result of a lawful request by a government or law enforcement authority.

Policy Changes

Any changes to this Privacy Policy made by Heritage Malta will be posted here and will take effect immediately. This policy was last updated on 28 July 2003.
