What is a security ID?

Sometimes called a Web Beacon; essentially, this is a large random number which is generated by our server and stored against your email address. We use this number (seen as a set of numbers and letters) when we send you emails or when you respond to links in the emails. We can then know it is you and process your request accordingly. This help guard against people who collect emails for spamming.

We store the following information:

  • Your email address and the date and time you give it to us (eg. when you subscribed to our newsletters)
  • A Security ID (see above)
