Websites built for business
You may need to register to access our website and where you do not register personal information about you will not be collected by us.
If you register for our services, any details you provide may be stored for use on future visits, as we do not want you to give us any information more than once. The details you give us may be combined with information about your use of the BBD Creative website(s) and information from other of our records in order to provide you with online services you request.
Email Address
We respect the privacy of personal email accounts and we store your email addresses just as securely as other personal information. We will not send you unwanted email messages or junk mail, and your details will not be passed to any organisation outside the group for marketing purposes without your explicit permission. However, we may use email in response to enquiries you make about our services or service issues.

We take all reasonable care to prevent any unauthorised access to your personal data.
We sometimes use other companies to provide some of our services or to provide services to us. To enable them to do this, we may need to let them process your personal information. Our staff and those working for our agents or contractors have a responsibility to keep your information confidential and are only allowed to use it to offer products and services on our behalf.
