    \n

      \n

However, please note that when you send us the completed order form, you will still have to include the necessary contact details and (if paying by credit card) credit card information.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Your privacy options for managing cookies are listed on our Cookies Policy<\/a> page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Your Responsibilities<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      When you register an account with us, it is your responsibility to ensure your password is secure. This means that you should not disclose it to any third party, or record it in any medium (written or electronic) such that the information is readily accessible by any third party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you log on to your account using a shared or public computer, you should take care to log off again when you have finished browsing our website, in order to ensure that your account information is not accessible to other users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
