Our policy is not to share personally identifiable information with any third parties, unless required by law, or unless explicitly requested by you or otherwise as set out in this section. We recognise that your information is valuable and we take all reasonable measures to protect your information while it is in our care.

Personal data which has been submitted to Origin may be disclosed to other parties where this is necessary to meet the purpose for which the individual has submitted the information.

Third party cookies – Google Analytics

In addition to our own cookies, we use Google Analytics to measure how visitors use our website. This information is used to ensure the site is meeting the needs of its users and to help us make improvements.

  • how you got to the site
  • what you click on while you are visiting the site

We do not collect or store your personal information (eg your name or address) so this information cannot be used to identify who you are.

Additionally, we do not allow Google to use or share our analytics data.

In order to properly manage our website we may record information anonymously on our operational systems, and identify categories of visitors by items such as domains and browser types.
