RoastBeef's Privacy Policy

Roastbeef and its policies have been designed for our users - Roastbeef is a place to rekindle old friendships, find out what people you have lost touch with are doing and to reminisce.

In order to make contact with old friends and build the community, you have to provide certain data. These are your name, the years you attended the university or school you are registering for (or the years you lived in the town you are registering with), and your e-mail address. You also have the option to leave notes about what you are doing now (or indeed anything else you want your old friends to know about), to leave details of which campus and course you attended (with universities) or which road you lived on (in the case of Hometowns) and to join in our message boards. In order to protect you from SPAM (unsolicited e-mail), your message must not include your e-mail address and no posts to message boards must contain any email addresses. You are the only person that can adjust this information, including your e-mail address, by going to "My Profile".

While you do need to provide this basic data, Roastbeef respects your privacy and will never disclose your details without prior permission.

When you have registered as alumni of a university or school (or indeed as a previous resident of a town or village) your name will be available to any other registered member on the site who has registered their name with that particular school, college, university or hometown. The only details shown against the university, school or town, is your name on leaving, the years you were ther and an option to view your personal message.

Your email address is not made available on screen to anyone. The only way of making contact with an old friend is to use Roastbeef to enter a message and we will send an email on your behalf. The recipient will receive your e-mail address with the message, so that they can reply directly to you. Clearly, by choosing to contact and old friend, you are disclosing your e-mail address to them.

Once registered you will be sent an e-mail with confirmation of your registration, including your password. You will also be given a special URL (web link) that you must visit in order to confirm that your email address is valid which will fully activate your membership. Any further email from us will be as requested from you during registration. Namely, an optional weekly or monthly update of new members that have attended your school(s), university(ies) or have lived in your home town(s). There is also an optional periodical newsletter of new features on the site and any other interesting news or stories related to RoastBeef.co.uk.

If for any reason you want your details removed, please log in, then click on 'My Profile' and follow the link at the bottom of the page.
