Cookies and tracking
Like many websites, we use "cookies" to enable us to personalise your visits to
this website, simplify the signing-in procedure, keep track of your preferences and
to track the usage of this website. Cookies are small pieces of information that
are stored in the hard drive of your computer by your browser. Your browser will
have the option to prevent websites using cookies (your browser's help screen or
manual will tell you how to do this), but please note that this may reduce the
functionality of this Site and other websites. Like all websites, our servers
automatically record 'log files' containing information about the volume and
characteristics of our website traffic e.g. IP address, numbers of pages viewed,
length of time spent on site. We use log files to build pictures of how our site is
used that help us to monitor and improve the service. We cannot identify you from
your log files. We also use third party advertisements on to support our site. Some
of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they
advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google
through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your
ISP, the browser you used to visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have
Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing France
property adverts to someone in Paris, for example) or showing certain ads based on
specific sites visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents
cooking sites).
DoubleClick DART cookies
We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through Google's DoubleClick, which
places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the web and visit a site
using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This
cookie is used to serve ads specific to you and your interests ("interest based
targeting"). The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing
history (For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas, you
may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as on
a site about hockey). DART uses "non personally identifiable information". It does
NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address,
physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers
or credit card numbers.
Security, storage and transfer of information
We follow strict security procedures to ensure that your personal information is
not damaged, destroyed, or disclosed to a third party without your permission
(unless they are providing services as outlined in the 'who has access to your
information' section above) and to prevent unauthorised access to it. The computers
that store the information are kept in a secure facility with restricted physical
access and we use secure firewalls and other measures to restrict electronic
access. If we are working with third parties we will require them to have in place
similar measures to protect your information. All of the information we collect or
record is restricted to our offices. Only employees who need the information to
perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
We will explicitly ask you when we need information to identify you. We may require
you to co-operate with our security checks before we disclose information to you.
You can update the personal information that you give us at any time by viewing
your details page. We will retain your information for a reasonable period or for
as long as is required by law.
Anti-Spam Policy
This Anti-Spam Policy Notice governs the use of the web page at and its associated
services, web pages, domains and sub-domains, which are owned and operated by The Castle Rental Network.
The Site should not be used as a database for direct marketing by phone or SMS
messaging. The personal contact details contained in the placements on this site
are for the sole purpose of letting or selling a property and should not be used
for any other purpose. It is an offence to send unsolicited direct marketing text
messages or make unsolicited marketing phone calls. Each such call or message may
be punished by a fine of up to €5000. We consider spamming to be any activity
whereby you directly or indirectly transmit email messages to any email address
that has not solicited such email and does not consent to such transmission. We
also consider spamming to constitute posting advertisements that are off topic, or
in discussion forums that do not specifically permit advertisements. We reserve the
right to terminate your account if we deem you to be in violation of our anti-
spamming policies. We also reserve the right to suspend your account pending review
upon receipt of any complaint or other evidence that you may be engaging in any
spamming activity. If you are "spammed" by any products, services, website, or any
other matters, please report this activity to [email protected]
