Privacy Policy
At the Scottish Dental Clinical Effectiveness Programme (SDCEP), we respect the privacy of people who use our websites. When personal information is used we do so in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
In order to administer our website, provide email alert services and consult on our work, SDCEP occasionally captures personal data. This is done in two ways, described below.
Password-protected Access
The SDCEP website has a password-protected access system to ensure that the content is freely accessible to dental health professionals in Scotland.
In order to administer this system, we need to record personal information about you and your practice. This includes an email address and postal address in case we need to contact you.
If you register for the site your email address and other information given when registering will be held on the system for the purpose of providing this service. It will not be passed on to third parties. If you wish to discontinue with the service please contact us using the details given on this website.
Site Access
The website monitors access to the site for the purpose of system administration of the web server and statistical monitoring of website usage.
This includes the use of "cookies". A cookie is a message given to a web browser by a web server. The message is then stored by the browser in a text file called cookie.txt. Every time the browser obtains a page from the server this cookie message is sent back to the server. This allows us to study how people use our website.
This privacy policy covers the SDCEP 'Practice Support Manual' website. Any links from this site to other websites are not covered by this policy.
