The following statement explains our policy regarding the personal information we collect about you or your business. This statement explains how we use the information we collect to provide the solutions you require and to improve our service. The provision of personal information is entirely voluntary.

The information we collect about you
We collect information from you when you register with us through the site and when you complete any of the request forms such as ‘Information Request', ‘Catalogue Request' or the ‘Competition' Entry Form. Providing your information on these forms means you will be added to our active marketing list unless you choose to opt-out at the bottom of the form.

By being on the active marketing list you may be contacted occasionally via the website or email for direct marketing purposes, for example, with special offers, incentives or news which we feel may be of relevance and interest to you. If you are an existing customer opting out of the website active marketing list does not affect the information you already receive though our normal customer service. The personal information we collect from these website forms will not be sold to another company and is only accessible by Barloworld Handling Ltd.

You may opt out of the active marketing list at any time by calling our customer service team on 0800 137 449 or by emailing ‘remove me' to marketing@handling.barloworld.co.uk

Apply Online
If you apply for a job advertised on our site the information will be held on the company's database for recruitment purposes only. We regret that we are unable to respond to all applicants individually, so if you have not received an invite to attend an interview from us within 28 days, please consider your application unsuccessful. By ticking the accept box at the bottom of the form you are agreeing to us retaining your CV on file for 6 months; it will then be destroyed.

Your web browser destroys this cookie after 20 minutes of inactivity, or when you close the web browser application. At no stage is any personal information stored in a cookie, or any information that would allow us to identify you as an individual.
