EquiMind Ltd. is committed to safeguarding your privacy and providing a safe online experience. This policy applies to the EquiMind website, the EquiMind App, and governs data collection and usage.

Collection and use of your Personal Information

EquiMind Ltd. may collect, store and use personally identifiable information. This is information about you that you give us by filling in forms on our site or by corresponding with us by phone, e-mail, Social Media, or otherwise. It includes information you provide when you register to use our site, subscribe to our service, sign up to receive our newsletter, become a member of our site, search on our site, enter a competition, promotion or survey, and when you report a problem with our site. The information you give us may include:

  • your email address, name, home or work address, e-mail address, telephone number, personal description, as well as photographs and videos;
  • information about your computer and about your visits to and use of this website (including your IP address, geographical location, browser type and version, operating system, referral source, length of visit, page views and website navigation paths). EquiMind also collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as you post (ZIP) code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favourites;
  • information that you provide when completing your profile on our website (including your name, profile pictures, gender, date of birth, horse description and email address);
  • information relating to any purchases you make of our goods and/or services or any other transactions that you enter into through our website (including your name, address, telephone number, email address);
  • any other personal information that you choose to send to us.

Before you disclose to us the personal information of another person, therefore, you must obtain that person’s consent to both the disclosure and the processing of that personal information in accordance with this policy.

EquiMind may use your personal information to:

  • operate the EquiMind website, the EquiMind App, and deliver the services you have requested;
  • enable your use of the services available on our website;

  • contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered;
  • keep our website secure and prevent fraud;
  • verify compliance with the terms and conditions governing the use of our website.

EquiMind does not transfer your personal information to any bodies or organisations resident in countries outside the European Economic Area which do not provide the same level of protection as the United Kingdom.

  • to conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on EquiMind or the site;
  • to protect and defend the rights or property of Equimind;
  • in connection with any ongoing or prospective legal proceedings;
  • under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Equimind, or the public;
  • to any person who we reasonably believe may apply to a court or other competent authority for disclosure of that personal information where, in our reasonable opinion, such court or authority would be reasonably likely to order disclosure of that personal information.

Use of Cookies

EquiMind uses “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.

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 register with the EquiMind website or its App, a cookie helps EquiMind 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 EquiMind website the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Equimind features that you customised.
