    1. in the manner of the practices and situations described in the Policy;

 

    1. if or when required or permitted to do so by law; or

  • protect or defend the reputation, rights, interest or property of AWS or its partners, personnel or users.

 

  1. Due to the Rules, we are required to collect, use and/or disclose Information to enable us to commence, provide or continue to provide our services.

Section VI       Use of cookies

 

  1. AWS website may use “cookies” to help you personalise your online experience.  A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server.  Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.  Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

 

  1. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time.  The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page.  For example, if you personalise AWS pages, or register with AWS site or services, a cookie helps AWS to recall your specific information on subsequent visits.  This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on.  When you return to the same AWS website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use AWS features that you customised.

 

  1. You have the ability to accept or decline cookies.  Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.  If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the AWS services or websites you visit.

 

Section VII      Security

 

  1. We endeavour to take precautions to ensure that the information you have provided is protected against unauthorised or unintended use, access or disclosure.  However, we cannot be held responsible for unauthorised or unintended use, access or disclosure that is beyond our reasonable control.

 

Section VIII    Disclaimer

 

  1. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable in any event for any special, exemplary, punitive, indirect, incidental or consequential damages of any kind or for any loss of reputation or goodwill, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), equity, strict liability, statute or otherwise, suffered as a result of unauthorised or unintended collection, use, access or disclosure of information.
