Rio Tinto respects the privacy of our site visitors. We provide
this statement to inform you of our policies and practices
regarding how we use information we gather about you.
We use cookies ("web analytic" cookies) to help us track usage
patterns in order to improve and manage our site. We do not use
them to serve adverts or other promotional materials. We also log
your domain and IP address automatically when you visit our site,
however this information does not identify you as an individual,
but only the computer that you are using to view the site and your
approximate geographic location.
This website contains links to other Rio Tinto business and
third-party websites. Before disclosing your personal information
on any other website, we advise you to examine the privacy
statements of those websites. Rio Tinto takes no responsibility for
the privacy practices or the content of any websites other than
this one.
You may ask us to provide you with information, goods, products
or services and in doing so supply an email address and other
personal information. We store this information very carefully, and
it will not be passed to anyone outside the Rio Tinto Group for any
other purpose, except with those selected third party organisations
who may be asked to assist us in providing you with the
information, goods, products or services that you have requested.
However, where it is necessary, in order to answer your enquiry,
the information you have provided may be passed to any Rio Tinto
office worldwide. By sending this information to us you are
consenting to the personal information contained therein being
transferred within the Rio Tinto Group worldwide and being
processed by the Rio Tinto Group for these purposes.
As we plan to keep our privacy statement current, this
information can be subject to change. When appropriate, a revised
privacy statement will be posted on our website which will
incorporate any changes. We recommend you return periodically to
review the latest policy.
