Our policy happens to be pretty straightforward. Anything you read below that you may be unsure about please drop us a line by email to; privacypolicy@thealbion.cc

At The Albion we collect different types of information about our users for three main reasons:

  1. To help us to monitor the services we offer when you subscribe to the magazine and/or newsletter and/or buy merchandise from our website.
  2. To provide personalised services unique to individual users.
  3. To use anonymous details about our users to sell appropriate advertising space on the site. This might mean showing an advertiser how many users we have on the site. This does not mean we share an individual’s personal details with an advertiser. Where we collect registration information from an individual, we will never share that individual’s information with a third party, including an advertiser.
