Our Privacy Policy

Broadly, our website at johnston-stevens.com is a one-way mechanism for us to display properties which we have available to rent. We invite you to email us if interested, and conduct business thereafter. We do not directly make use of any cookies, or tracking information which our website provider (Wix.com) may place on your computer.

We review overall visitor numbers ('hits'), but otherwise we do not collect, store or track any information from the website. We do not use Wix's features which allow collection of user details, payment information, etc.

The policy below is adapted from a boiler-plate 'cover all' example provided by Wix, which mainly addresses features which we could use, but do not.

What information do you collect?

We receive, collect and store any information you may enter on our website or provide us with in any other way. In addition, we collect the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; login; e-mail address; password; computer and connection information. We may use software tools to measure and collect session information, including page response times, length of visits to certain pages, page interaction information, and methods used to browse away from the page. We also collect personally identifiable information (including name, email, password, communications)

How do you collect information?

When you conduct a transaction on our website, as part of the process, we collect personal information you give us such as your name, address and email address. Your personal information will be used for the specific reasons stated above only.

Why do you collect such personal information?

We collect such Non-personal and Personal Information for the following purposes:

To provide and operate the Services;

How do you store, use, share and disclose your site visitors' personal information?

We are hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.

All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by us adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

How do you communicate with your site visitors?

We do not, unless they contact us via email with a view to renting a property from us.

How do you use cookies and other tracking tools?

We do not track personal information through the use of cookies.

Third-party services, such as Google Analytics or other applications offered through the Wix App Market, may place cookies or utilise other tracking technologies through Wix´s services, and may have their own policies regarding how they collect and store information. As these are external services, such practices are not covered by our Privacy Policy, nor by Wix's.

We do not process 'website' privacy information in a way that is relevant to this question. If we have established contact via email and then asked you for further data which we are storing, then this would be covered by our GDPR policy.

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it.
