Privacy Policy
Protecting your privacy is definitely important to us.
1. For the Registered user of thejsho.com
You will be asked to submit details including a personal email address as well as your name and contact details, including your address. All mandatory information is indicated and is so to understand our users and so we can fulfil our obligations to you. Renewals information will be as indicated. We then use this information to set up a customer number and user name or to renew your subscription and generally fulfil our obligations to you. You will be asked if you wish to receive general email updates and further product information from us and if you do you can 'opt out' to receiving these. You will be given an opportunity to 'opt out' of this on each occasion we contact you thereafter. Additionally you can 'opt in' to us passing on your details to the BMA or other third parties.
2. Non-Registered users
If you access parts thejsho.com without a subscription, as you browse the website, we collect information about your use of the site. Essentially this will be which pages you have visited and how long you stay online. We will not be able to identify who you are from the information we store, but we will be able to identify where you are located.
3. To whom will personal information be disclosed?
Unless you have agreed otherwise, we will not disclose your personal data to any third party other than our contractors who must keep this date secure and confidential. Corporate location information however may be shared.
4. How long do we keep the information we collect?
We keep your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil our obligations to you and protect our legal interests. This will never be longer than six years from the end of your subscription period.
5. Can you change information we hold about you?
Where you have provided us with an email address or any information which becomes outdated, you should inform us by using the contact form on the website or updating your details using the "my account link" link at the top of the site. You must be logged in to access the "my account page".
6. How is personal information stored and protected
Your personal data is stored by us in electronic and paper-based form. Website usage information is stored electronically.
7. Security
The information we collect about site visitors the site, is stored in secure environments and we do not share any data that identifies any individual, to any other individual or party. We have mechanisms in place to protect data. One such mechanism is called a "firewall". A firewall is a barrier that allows only authorised traffic through. It safeguards our computer systems and your information. We also use system and application logs to track all access. We review these logs periodically and investigate any anomalies or discrepancies.
We understand that the security of your information is important to you. We also understand that our continued success as a publisher on the web, relies on our ability to communicate with you in a secure manner. We adhere to the highest standards of decency, fairness, and integrity in our operations. We use several measures to authenticate your identity when you visit our site. We also take steps to protect your information as it travels the internet, and to make sure all information is as secure as possible against unauthorised access and use (for example, by hackers). We review our security measures regularly.
Despite our best efforts, and the best efforts of other firms, "perfect security" does not exist on the internet, or anywhere else. As a result, whilst we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot warrant the security of the information you transmit to us online. You therefore do so at your own risk.
Once we receive your transmission, we make our best efforts to ensure its security on our system.
8. Authentication
You should not share your user name and password with other people. If you think you might lose or forget these identifiers, write them down and keep each in a separate place.

Please be aware that once you click to one of these sites, you are subject to that site’s privacy policy and not to ours. You may wish to review the privacy policy for each site you visit.
