Cookies
Our website uses cookies.
In order to ensure our website is compliant with EU cookie legislation, and specifically General Data Protection Regulation's (GDPR) guidelines on the use of cookies, Civic Cookie Control, a JavaScript module, is used.
The GDPR has a global reach, meaning all EU states and sites receiving EU visitors should seek user consent with an explicit opt in. With this in mind, Cookie Control is designed to run by default in "explicit mode".
Links to other websites
Our website may contain links to other websites of interest, for example suppliers we work with, data sheets for our products and academic/technical articles relating to the technologies we supply.
Once you have used these links to leave our site you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement.
If you have concerns regarding the privacy policies of the linked websites you should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
Controlling your personal information
We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties.
Whilst we require contact information to follow up on your direct enquiries via our website contact form you may choose to restrict the use of your personal information in the following ways:
- Whenever you fill in the inquiry form on our website we will use the information provided to respond to that request and commence an ongoing dialogue on that topic.
- We will also ask you to provide an “opt-in” to future contact from AP Technologies. This opt-in will enable us to keep you informed regarding “news” such new suppliers and/or products and "events" such as forthcoming exhibitions.
- We will also provide you with the facility to “opt-out” of future email broadcast newsletters but of course this opt-out will not prevent us from following up your specific enquiry. We may also contact you individually at some future point should we identify a new product we feel might be of interest and benefit to your business.
- If you have previously agreed to us using your contact information for direct marketing purposes you may change your mind at any time. You can contact us by email or phone; use the opt-out/unsubscribe option which is always contained within our email newsletters.
- Bear in mind that when you click the unsubscribe link you will automatically be removed from ALL of our mailings.
