Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Thelccgroup 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. Thelccgroup's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Thelccgroup's visitors use its website. From time to time, Thelccgroup may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Thelccgroup also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://portal.thelccgroup.co.uk blog posts. Thelccgroup only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Certain visitors to Thelccgroup's websites choose to interact with Thelccgroup in ways that require Thelccgroup to gather personally-identifying information.
