What type of information we have

When you browse our store, we also automatically receive your computer’s IP address in order to provide us with information regarding what pages you accessed and when.

Email marketing. 

With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products, services and other updates.

Do you sell personal data to any third parties?

Absolutely not! We will never give out your email address to any third party as we think unsolicited emails are the worst kind of intrusion.

Do you send marketing emails?

Yes – but only if you’ve given us your explicit consent and even then very rarely. You will NOT be automatically added to our marketing list as we’ve always found that sort of practice to be a bit presumptuous. You will only be added to our marketing list if you tick the box to opt in, and you can opt-out at any point by clicking the unsubscribe link that we include on all our marketing emails.

How we get the information and why we have it

We collect data to operate effectively and provide you with the best experience on our website. You provide some of this data directly, such as when you book a call or when you register to receive our email newsletters. We get some of it by recording how you interact with our website by, for example, using technologies like cookies. Please see our Cookie Policy below for further information.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the lawful bases we rely on for processing this information are:

  • Your consent.

You can remove your consent at any time and we only contact you if the following apply. 

  • We have a legal obligation.
  • We have a contractual obligation.
  • We have a legitimate interest.

 

How is your information used?

We may use your information to:

  • Process enquiries that you have submitted
    • To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into by you and us
    • Dealing with entries into a competition
    • Seek your views or comments on the services we provide
    • Notify you of changes to our services
    • Send you communications which you have requested and that may be of interest to you.

These may include information about offers, events, new additions to our range, activities and promotions.

We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis. We hold some types of information to fulfill our contract with you. We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as it is set out in any relevant contract you hold with us.

  

Who do we share your personal data with?

Third Party Service Providers & Suppliers working on our behalf: We may pass your information to our trusted third party service providers, suppliers, agents, subcontractors and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf. For example, to send you emails or deliver the products/services you have ordered from us, fraud management and so on.

 

However, when we use third party service providers & suppliers;

  • We disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to use your data for an exact purpose whilst keeping your information protected and secure at all times.
  • We will not release your information to third parties for them to use for their own direct marketing purposes, unless we are required to do so by law, for example, by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime.

To help improve your experience of our website, we currently use the following companies who will process your personal data as part of their contracts with us:

  • Google
  • Facebook
  • Instagram
  • Mailerlite

You have a choice about whether or not you wish to receive information from us. If you do not want to receive direct marketing communications from us about our products and events, then you can select your choices by leaving blank the relevant boxes situated on the forms on which we collect your information.

We will not contact you for marketing purposes by email unless you have given your prior consent. We will not contact you for marketing purposes by post if you have indicated that you do not wish to be contacted. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by clicking the link in emails.
