Security

This website takes every precaution to protect our users’ information.   When users submit sensitive information via the website, we do our best to protect their information both online and offline.

Scoop supports the requirements and intent of the Data Protection Act of 1988.   All of our users’ information is restricted in our business.   Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, to reserve a rental or to send an e-mail) are granted access to personally identifiable information.  

If users have any questions about the security at our website, they should contact us at the contact information shown at the bottom of this page.

Business Transitions

In the event of Scoop going through a business transition, such as a merger, or being acquired by another company, users’ personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.   Users will be notified via a prominent notice on our website for 30 days as soon as any such transition is confirmed.   If, as a result of the business transition, the users‘ personally identifiable information will be used in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection, they will be given the option to have their personal details deleted.

Special Offers and Updates

We send to all those who have registered with us e-mails about our products, services and special offers.   Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications.   If you choose not to accept this promotional e-mail, you may not receive special offers that may be of value to you.  

You may change your option for receiving/not receiving promotional e-mails at any time by contacting us at the contact information shown at the bottom of this page.

Service Announcements

On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service-related announcement.   For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an e-mail.   Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, but these communications are not promotional in nature.

Customer Service

We may communicate with users to provide requested services. We reply by e-mail, telephone or letter.

Liability

Scoop does not accept liability for any errors and omissions and reserves the right to change information, specifications and descriptions of listed goods, products and services. Scoop will do its best to correct errors and omissions as quickly as practicable after being notified of them.

Sharing – Legal Disclaimer

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our web-site.

Surveys, Competitions and Promotions

From time to time our site requests information from users via surveys, competitions, promotions and submitted reviews.   Participation in these surveys, contests or promotions is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information.   The requested information includes contact information, such as name, e-mail address, address and telephone number.   Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes.   An opt out option will always be available and unless this opt out has been selected the names of competition winners and people submitting reviews may be published on the web-site, in the shop, on promotional literature and in the press.
