Privacy Policy and Legal Notices

This privacy policy and legal notice is specific to International Law in Domestic Courts (ILDC) and overrides any other privacy policy or legal notice appearing elsewhere on Oxford University Press websites.

Privacy Policy

Oxford University Press (OUP) is committed to protecting your privacy online. Our policy explains how we will do this. We will review this policy in the light of comments we receive so please check the latest version. If you have any questions about our privacy policy please contact us.

By using ILDC, you are accepting the practices described in this statement.

What kind of information do we collect and how do we use it?

When you subscribe to or ask for further information about ILDC, we ask for your name, email address, postal address, and other relevant personal information. Personal information submitted in this way is added to our access control database, hosted by a third party hosting company, and to our customer databases at OUP and OUP Inc. premises. This information will be updated if you inform us of any changes.

We may use information in our customer databases to send you information about us and our products which we think may be of interest to you, both electronically or otherwise. In the case of subscribers, your personal information will also be used to enable us to verify you are a subscriber and to deliver ILDC to you.

We request personal information (such as your name, email address and other contact details) from you when you contact us with subscription management queries, technical problems, to comment on ILDC, or when you ask for information about how to use the service. Personal information submitted by you via contact us will not be added to our customer database and we request it simply so that we can respond to you about your query. Statistics regarding the types of queries submitted to us via contact us may be collated by us in aggregate form so that we can effectively monitor the site and improve levels of service.

If you have asked for information or subscribed to ILDC in the past and no longer use the service and do not wish us to store information about you, please contact us and we will remove your details from our customer database. We need to store information about current subscribers in order to fulfil our contractual requirements to you and in order to deliver ILDC to you.

Unless you have informed us that you do not wish to receive further information about our products, we may send you direct mail.

You may notify us either in writing or by telephone, fax or email that you object to being contacted in a particular stated way. If you use more than one email address to communicate with us, please notify us of each email account you use.

When do we share information?

We do not sell your personal information to others.

We share your information within Oxford University Press and with OUP Inc. in the USA and Oxford Publishing Limited.

ILDC has been developed by and hosted by third parties but we have agreed with those third parties that they will keep your information secure and not use it for other purposes.

If we believe that your use of the site is unlawful or damaging to others, we reserve the right to disclose the information we have obtained through the site about you to the extent that it is reasonably necessary in our opinion to prevent, remedy or take action in relation to such conduct.

Use of Cookies

Cookies are small files which many websites transfer to your hard disk. Cookies contain information including details of the pages you visit and your account preferences.

Cookies are required by subscribers who have concurrent user licences of ILDC in order to control concurrency-based access to the service. The default policy will be to use cookies for authentication. However, subscribers who have unlimited access licences for ILDC may choose to disable cookies and will still be able to use the service, but usage statistics related to user sessions will not be available.

Security

Your personal information is stored at a data centre controlled by our third party hosting company and on the customer database at OUP. The data centre controlled by our third party hosting company is specifically designed to be physically secure and to admit authorized personnel only, who are contractually bound to keep all of our data confidential.

Access to our customer databases at Oxford University Press and OUP, Inc. in the USA is only given to those of our employees who need such access in order to carry out necessary processing of your account.

All personal information submitted by you and entered by Oxford University Press into the ILDC access control system is encoded using 128–bit SSL encryption before being sent over the Internet.
