Information logged When you visit this website, our server logs information which is provided by your browser. This information is used to create summary statistics which allow us to assess the number of visitors to the different sections of our website, discover what information is most and least used, determine technical design specifications, and help us make our website more useful to visitors. The information logged is as follows: - The type of browser you are using;
- The date and time of your visit;
- Your top level domain name (for example .com, ,gov, .au, .uk etc);
- The address of the referring website;
- Your server's IP address (a number which is unique to the computer through which you are connected to the Internet: usually one of your service provider's computers);
- The address of the pages accessed and any documents downloaded.
No attempt will be made to identify users or their browsing activities, unless disclosure is required by law or due to a mandatory requirement of a Court, Governmental Agency or Regulatory Authority. We use the information only for statistical analysis or systems administration purposes. Information about IP addresses, web browsers and computer operating systems are automatically transmitted to web servers as an integral part of the operation of the Internet. This information is used for demographic purposes to better serve web site users. Data is analysed for trends and statistics and then discarded. Our web site logs are not personally identifiable and we make no attempt to link them with individuals who browse the site. For security purposes and to improve our service, we use software and third party services to monitor traffic, detect unauthorised and malicious access to our site and determine the effectiveness of our site structure.

A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred from a web site to the hard drive of your computer so that the site may identify your computer and allow the shopping cart to function so you can purchase products on the web site. This unique number identifies your web browser and your cart contents, but not you personally, to our servers whenever you visit our website. You will not be able to use our shopping cart if you have cookies turned off. We do not use cookies to collect personal information or to track your activities. Spam The Australian Spam Act came into force on 11 April 2004. Although these laws are aimed at major offenders, they affect all businesses and organisations that send email. The Act is enforced by the Australian Communications Authority. (See www.aca.gov.au and www.efa.org.au.). Viruses and Emails that look like they come from us Many viruses and some spammers spoof email addresses. If you've received a virus message that has our address as the sender that does not mean that the virus came from us. It could have come from anyone who has looked at our pages and who also has your email address somewhere on their computer. This is as frustrating for us as it is for you. We never send emails with attachments. If you receive an email claiming to be from us with an attachment, please delete it without opening it. Links to other sites This website contains links to other websites. A Little Colour is not responsible for the privacy practices of these web sites and has no knowledge of whether cookies or other tracking devices are used on linked websites. If you have any concerns regarding your privacy you should ensure you are aware of the privacy policies of those websites
