If you are a moron or, worse still, a civil servant, you may not be aware that every website you use collects your IP address. What’s more, if you are that stupid, you may not realise that when you enter your name and email address into a website, the owner of that website keeps your name and address.

Shutup! Yes, really.

So in an effort to keep civil servants to the high quality of salary, restaurants and pensions they have become accustomed, FieldsportsChannel.tv hereby offers this privacy and cookies policy notice in order to comply with GDPR. Legally, it’s about as watertight as a soft sponge, but if you feel the need to sue us, then hop out the handcart, you’re already in hell.

2. Who are we?

FieldsportsChannel.tv makes TV shows about the best hunting, shooting and fishing, funded by sponsorship and advertising, providing news and information in 155 languages.

The website FieldsportsChannel.tv and associated social media and websites are run by FieldsportsChannel.tv. No shit, Sherlock. It gets better. The FieldsportsChannel.tv website is available to users outside the UK (apparently the EU civil servants didn’t know that the internet is cross-border when they drafted that one). The international version of the FieldsportsChannel.tv website is, you will be staggered to find out, run by FieldsportsChannel.tv , as are the local language versions of FieldsportsChannel.tv. These international services are also funded through sponsorship and advertising.

FieldsportsChannel.tv’s activities are only covered by this Privacy and Cookies Policy in relation to its use of data collected via FieldsportsChannel.tv.com. To find out more about FieldsportsChannel.tv, its commercial operations and how it will use data collected have a look around this website. If you don’t know how to use a website, what are you doing here, banana brain?

Other companies might run FieldsportsChannel.tv-branded services or content under licence. We hope companies operate to FieldsportsChannel.tv standards but who are we to judge? Please make sure you check the privacy policy of the websites you use so you know who runs the website and how they will use your data.

When we refer to ‘we’ or ‘our’ or ‘FieldsportsChannel.tv‘ we are referring to FieldsportsChannel.tv. Yup, really,

3. What information will FieldsportsChannel.tv collect about me?

When you participate in, access or sign up to any of FieldsportsChannel.tv’s services, activities or online content, such as newsletters, competitions, live chats, message boards, web and mobile notifications, telephone or text FieldsportsChannel.tv, vote, donate money to a FieldsportsChannel.tv charity appeal, book tickets for a FieldsportsChannel.tv event or create an account using FieldsportsChannel.tv’s online registration system we may receive personal information about you. This can consist of information such as your name, email address, postal address, telephone or mobile number, gender or date of birth, as well as information collected about your use of FieldsportsChannel.tv services (such as what you read or watch on FieldsportsChannel.tv Online and items you have “added” when signed in to your FieldsportsChannel.tvaccount).

Please note that sometimes we will require you to provide additional personal information, and sometimes what a snowflake will consider is sensitive personal information.

Where we provide personalised services, we may ask your permission to review third-party data about you, for example, your Twitter or Facebook feeds, to get to know you better and to provide more effective personalisation. Some of our services enable you to sign-in via a third-party service, such as Facebook. If you choose to sign-in via a third-party app, you will be presented with a dialog box which will ask your permission to allow FieldsportsChannel.tv to access your personal information (e.g. your full name, date of birth, email address and any other information you have made publicly accessible). Please note that any information that is not required by the particular service you have opted to use will not be retained by FieldsportsChannel.tv.

FieldsportsChannel.tv collects information about how you use FieldsportsChannel.tv mobile sites or apps, FieldsportsChannel.tv websites or other FieldsportsChannel.tv content online, and the device(s) you use to access the services. This includes collecting unique online identifiers such as IP addresses, which are numbers that can uniquely identify a specific computer or other network device on the internet. For more information, please see section 15 of this policy, on FieldsportsChannel.tv’s use of cookies and similar technologies, and section 17, on information collected by FieldsportsChannel.tv when you use FieldsportsChannel.tv apps on your TV or mobile device.

4. How will FieldsportsChannel.tv use the information it collects about me?

FieldsportsChannel.tv will use your personal information for a number of purposes including the following:

• to provide our services, activities or online content, to provide you with information about them and to deal with your requests and enquiries;
• to provide you with the most user-friendly online navigation experience;
• for “service administration purposes”, which means that FieldsportsChannel.tv may contact you for reasons related to the service, activity or online content you have signed up for, as set out in section 5 below (e.g. to provide you with password reminders, to notify you that a particular service, activity or online content has been suspended for maintenance, to notify you of updates to our Privacy and Cookies Policy or Terms of Use, to let you know if your FieldsportsChannel.tv account has become dormant and to ask if you would like to use it again before we close it);
• where we provide personalised services, we may analyse the information you supply, as well as your activity on our (and other) services, so that we can offer a more relevant, tailored service.
• we may also show you relevant advertising on third-party sites, as set out in section 7;
• to contact you about a submission you have made, including any content you provide. For additional information, please see the Terms of Use;
• to use IP addresses and device identifiers to identify the location of users, to block disruptive use, to establish the number of visits from different countries, and to determine whether you are accessing the services from the UK or not.
• for analysis and research purposes so that we may improve the services offered by FieldsportsChannel.tv. This can include using geo-demographic information from external sources, where this helps us ensure we are making something for everyone;
• we may also use and disclose information in aggregate (so that no individuals are identified) for marketing and strategic development purposes; and
• a certain amount of our advertising is tailored to the individual, a common practice known as online behavioural advertising.

We will not use your information to start a war, increase Third World debt or hunger, nor rain down famine and pestilence. In short, we will only cause you First World problems.

5. Your FieldsportsChannel.tv account

If you have registered for a FieldsportsChannel.tv account this will also allow you to login to FieldsportsChannel.tv website for your location and some other FieldsportsChannel.tv websites and apps.

You might be asked to use your FieldsportsChannel.tv account on other FieldsportsChannel.tv services to enable you to sign in and seamlessly enjoy FieldsportsChannel.tv services.

Your FieldsportsChannel.tv account will always be covered by the policies of this website. But, please be aware that additional policies may apply if your FieldsportsChannel.tv account is linked to another account.

6. When will FieldsportsChannel.tv contact me?

FieldsportsChannel.tv may contact you:
• in relation to any service, activity or online content you or your under-13-year-old child have signed up for, in order to ensure that FieldsportsChannel.tv can deliver the services, e.g. to verify your email when you sign up for a FieldsportsChannel.tv account, or to help you reset your password or to ask whether you agree to your child’s request for additional account permissions);

7. Will I be contacted for marketing purposes?

FieldsportsChannel.tv will only send you marketing emails or contact you on FieldsportsChannel.tv platforms where you have agreed to this or you have had prior correspondence with Fieldsports Channel staff.

We offer regular emails, including a weekly update, to let you know about FieldsportsChannel.tv programmes and services. From time to time we may also contact you to ask your views on issues affecting FieldsportsChannel.tv.

We may personalise the message content based upon any information you have provided to us and your use of FieldsportsChannel.tv platforms. If you find ‘Hi <First Name>’ is creepy, let us know.

We may use information which we hold about you to show you relevant advertising on third-party sites (e.g. Facebook, Google, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter). This could involve showing you an advertising message where we know you have a FieldsportsChannel.tv account and have used FieldsportsChannel.tv products and services. If you don’t want to be shown targeted advertising messages from FieldsportsChannel.tv, some third-party sites allow you to request not to see messages from specific advertisers on that site in future. If you want to stop all personalised services from FieldsportsChannel.tv, including targeted advertising messages on third-party sites you can visit Your Account in Using FieldsportsChannel.tv and disable personalisation there.

8. Will FieldsportsChannel.tv share my personal information with anyone else?

We will keep your information within FieldsportsChannel.tv except where disclosure is required or permitted by law (for example to government bodies and law enforcement agencies, including for child protection reasons) or as described in this section and section 9.

Generally, we will use your information within FieldsportsChannel.tv and will only share it outside FieldsportsChannel.tv where you have requested it or given your consent. However, we may share with third-party sites (e.g. Facebook, Google, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter) some data, with appropriate security measures, to show you relevant advertising on third-party sites. And if we are waterboarded by the CIA, we will tell them everything.

Sometimes FieldsportsChannel.tv uses third parties to process your information on our behalf, for example to provide services or analysis. FieldsportsChannel.tv requires these third parties to comply strictly with its instructions and FieldsportsChannel.tv requires that they do not use your personal information for their own business purposes, unless you have explicitly consented to the use of your personal information in this way.

We may share your personal information internally (i.e. with other FieldsportsChannel.tv divisions).

9. Offensive or inappropriate content on FieldsportsChannel.tv websites

If you post or send content which may reasonably be deemed to be offensive, inappropriate or objectionable anywhere on or to FieldsportsChannel.tv websites or otherwise engage in any disruptive behaviour on any FieldsportsChannel.tv service, FieldsportsChannel.tv may remove such content.

Where FieldsportsChannel.tv reasonably believes that you are or may be in breach of any applicable laws, for example on hate speech, FieldsportsChannel.tv may disclose your personal information to relevant third parties, including to law enforcement agencies or your internet provider. FieldsportsChannel.tv would only do so in circumstances where such disclosure is permitted under applicable laws, including data protection law.

10. What if I am a user aged under 18?

If you are aged 18 or under, you are supposed to get your parent/guardian’s permission before you provide any personal information to FieldsportsChannel.tv. Well you really do that? Yeah, right. So the civil servants reckon if we say ‘If you are aged 18 or under, please get your parent/guardian’s permission before you provide any personal information to FieldsportsChannel.tv’ you will go ‘Sure. Great idea. Mum! Dad! LGBTQ Parent Figure! Hurry here I need your consent!’. If they are dim enough to care, they can email it to us.

11. How long will FieldsportsChannel.tv keep my information?

We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with FieldsportsChannel.tv. If you delete your FieldsportsChannel.tv account then your personal information is deleted immediately, and the remaining information is anonymised for analytical purposes. For further information about deleting your FieldsportsChannel.tv account, please see section 12 below.

Where you contribute content together with your personal information (User Generated Content or UGC), it’s going to be there for the rest of Western Civilisation. Get over it.

If you have not used your FieldsportsChannel.tv account in the last year then your account may be classed as dormant or may be deleted in line with this privacy policy. We will email to remind you before deletion so please check your inbox regularly to see if we have sent you any emails about this.

12. Can I delete my data?

Deleting your FieldsportsChannel.tv account will erase personal information in your account that we have about you and it will mean data we hold about how you have used FieldsportsChannel.tv will be made anonymous.

Deleting your FieldsportsChannel.tv account will not delete the data you shared with FieldsportsChannel.tv for reasons that are not connected with your FieldsportsChannel.tv account.

13. Can I find out what personal information FieldsportsChannel.tv holds about me?

Under the UK’s Data Protection Act you have the right to request a copy of the personal information FieldsportsChannel.tv holds about you and to have any inaccuracies corrected (we charge up to £10000000 for information requests and require you to prove your identity with as many as 200 pieces of approved identification. We will not tell you what is approved or not. You have to keep on guessing until you get it right. Are you building a picture here?). We will use reasonable efforts consistent with our legal duty to supply, correct or delete personal information about you on our files. If you are within the UK, please address requests and questions about this or any other question about this Privacy & Cookies Policy to charlie@fieldsportschannel.tv

14. What if I am accessing FieldsportsChannel.tv websites outside the UK?

15. Web browser cookies

a) What is a cookie?

It is not a biscuit A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer, tablet or mobile phone (all referred to here as a “device”) web browser from a website’s computer and is stored on your device’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your web browser if your browser’s preferences allow it. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows. Similar technologies are also often used within emails to understand whether the email has been read or if any links have been clicked. If you continue without changing your settings, we’ll assume that you are happy to receive all cookies on FieldsportsChannel.tv website. However, you can change your cookie settings at any time.

On FieldsportsChannel.tv websites, cookies record information about your online preferences and allow us to tailor our websites to your interests.

During the course of any visit to a FieldsportsChannel.tv website, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your device. Many websites do this, because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the device (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.

b) How does FieldsportsChannel.tv use cookies?

Information supplied by cookies can help us to understand the profile of our visitors and help us to provide you with a better user experience. It also helps us recognise when you are signed in to your FieldsportsChannel.tvaccount and to provide a more personalised experience. For example, if on a previous visit you went to our education pages, we might find this out from your cookie and highlight educational information on your second and subsequent visits. FieldsportsChannel.tv uses this type of information to help improve the services it provides to its users. Certain areas of FieldsportsChannel.tv websites may use cookies for a specific reason – for example, to help an online game work effectively on your device.

For more information, see the Google webpage “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps”.

d) FieldsportsChannel.tv cookies and how to reject cookies

If you change your settings and block certain cookies, you will not be able to take full advantage of some features of FieldsportsChannel.tv services, and we might not be able to provide some features you have previously chosen to receive. The clue is in the short phrase block cookies’. It means you have blocked cookies.

e) Other information collected from web browsers

Your web browser may also provide FieldsportsChannel.tv with information about your device, such as an IP address and details about the browser that you are using. Where requesting local news or weather, it may be possible for you to choose to provide FieldsportsChannel.tv with access to your device’s location through the web-browser.

16. Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting

17. Apps, Devices and TVs

When you download or use FieldsportsChannel.tv apps on your mobile device or TV, information may be accessed from or stored to your device. Most often this is used in a similar way to a web browser cookie, such as by enabling the app to ‘remember’ you or provide you with the content you have requested.

Your web browser or device may also provide FieldsportsChannel.tv with information about your device, such as a device identifier or IP address. Device identifiers may be collected automatically, such as the device ID, IP address, MAC address, IMEI number and app ID (a unique identifier relating to the particular copy of the app you are running).

When you sign in to a FieldsportsChannel.tv app, your sign-in details may be stored securely on the device you are using, so you can access other FieldsportsChannel.tv apps on the same device without needing to enter your sign-in details again.
