you to control your privacy and to give you a means to voice any questions
or concerns you may have.

Collection of Information
Information is collected
from you primarily to make it easier and more rewarding for you to use
our services. Depending on the service you are accessing, you could

other contact details. It is entirely your choice whether to respond
to these questions or not, but may mean you do not receive the full

five thousand people visit this Privacy Policy today, but we do not
know their names, where they live or their date of birth - they are
'anonymous' to us. Most of the individuals who access our site are anonymous
to us.

information. Metrodata Ltd will collect personal information that lets
us know the specifics of who you are such as your name, e-mail address,

Metrodata Ltd can provide a variety of personalised and enhanced services
that are not available to anonymous users. We hope that you will find
it beneficial to provide individually identifiable information about
yourself to us because it will make us more able to respond to your
needs.
