In order for us to provide Users with services in the App, we use 'cookies' to store and sometimes track information about Users. The information collected by means of 'cookies' includes Users' login name and his or her navigation pattern. This is done without Users being aware that it is occurring.

Personal Data collected by means of 'cookies' will not be disclosed to any third parties. The App may be initially set up to accept cookies. Users can choose to "not accept" cookies by changing the settings but if they do so, they may find that certain features and functions on the App may not work properly.

ifc may collect Users' personal data in certain situations, including where a User login to his/her account via the App as CLUB ic member or Guest Shopper, or voluntarily submit information for the purpose of registering as Guest Shopper or making enquiries). In such a situation, the App will provide the User with a Personal Information Collection Statement and the User should read the Personal Information Collection Statement carefully before providing his/her personal data to understand how his/her personal data may be used.

We may from time to time send direct marketing materials and promoting products and services to a User using his/her personal data, with his/her consent. Suitable opt-out facilities will be provided to the User.

We take all reasonably practical steps to protect Users' personal data from unauthorized or accidental access, processing, erasure, loss or use.

In order to provide Users with more information and services, we may use third party content providers and service providers, and provide links to other web sites. These third parties may collect Users' personal data when Users visit their web sites or use their services. These third parties apply their own privacy policies and practices in collecting, using and handling of personal data. We are not responsible for the conduct of these third parties and our Privacy Policy Statement does not cover such third-party activities and practices.
