Privacy Policy

Longparish Community Pub Limited (“LCPL”) owns and operates ploughahead.co.uk, lcpl.org.uk, ploughinn.org and it is our policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website visitors

Like most website operators, LCPL collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. LCPL’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how LCPL’s visitors use its website. From time to time, LCPL may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

LCPL also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on this site. LCPL only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible to the administrators of the website.

Gathering of personally-identifying information 

At their own discretion, visitors to this website may choose to interact with LCPL in two ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information:

  1. If you choose to opt-in and subscribe to our Newsletter, we will ask you to provide us with a user name and email address.

  2. If you choose to use the ‘Contact us’ facility to leave a comment or ask a question, we will ask you to supply your name, contact email address and your comment/question.

In each case, LCPL collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with LCPL. LCPL does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Aggregated Statistics

LCPL may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its website. LCPL may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, LCPL does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of certain personally-identifying information

LCPL discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those members of its Management Committee that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on LCPL’s behalf or to provide services available on the website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. LCPL will not rent, sell or divulge any of your personal information to any third party, except in response to a court order or other governmental request, or when LCPL believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of LCPL, third parties or the public at large. If you are a user of this  website and have signed up for our Newsletter, LCPL will send you regular emails to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, and to keep you up to date with our latest news. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. LCPL takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

LCPL visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using our website, with the drawback that certain features of the website may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
