How Do We Obtain Customer Data?
Data you supply
We obtain data when you order goods from us, including the data you supply through any website or telephone order process. We obtain data when you fill in a form, call us or otherwise submit information to our website, including where you register or subscribe for anything or set up an account. We also obtain data if you register with us to receive offers and newsletters from us.

The transmission of information via the internet is, however, not secure and therefore we cannot guarantee the security of data sent to us electronically by you. Any transmission of such data is therefore entirely at your own risk. If you have any questions relating to security of your data, please contact us using the details set out in the Contact Us section.
Data we Generate
We also generate and hold data specific to your orders or other contracts with us, including products ordered, payments made, and delivery, performance, complaints and returns information.

You will be notified of the recorded call via the auto-attendant recording, or by one of our representatives, you have the right to decline or opt out of the recording. Please note that by continuing the call after being informed, your consent is implied. We adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018 to ensure that your personal data is collected and processed in a lawful and secure manner. Recorded calls are securely stored for a 12 month period

Where any facility on our website is clearly designed to make certain of your personal data public (e.g. posts you make to any public forum or reviews facility) then any personal data you provide in that forum or other facility, which is provided in circumstances where it is clear that it is intended to be published, will be disclosed to the public accordingly, subject to moderation by us.

We keep your personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, and if longer, for the length of statutory claims limitation periods where your personal data may be relevant to any possible liability we may have to you, or for any duration required by law.
Where Do We Store Your Personal Data?
We (and any affiliate, subcontractor or other person processing your personal data on our behalf) may transfer, store and otherwise process your personal data anywhere in the world. Where we disclose your personal data to third parties, that disclosure may also involve a transfer of your personal data anywhere in the world, and those third parties may themselves transfer, store or otherwise process that information anywhere in the world. In each case, we will comply with any legal requirements concerning the transfer of your personal data by us to any third party outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").
What Security Measures Do We Apply?
Our Measures
We are obliged by law to put in place appropriate technical and organisational measures against unauthorised or unlawful processing of your personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, your personal data. We have accordingly implemented security policies, rules and technical measures with a view to achieving this, and all information you provide to us is therefore stored on secure servers.
Transfer of Data to us Over the Internet
We use Secured Socket Layer (“SSL”) software in order to encrypt the personal information that you provide to us whilst it is in transit over the internet from your browser to our website. This will work if your browser is SSL enabled (which most are). You can verify that this is working by looking for the symbol of a closed lock or solid key on the bottom bar of your browser window, and checking that the prefix for the web address in the browser address bar has changed from “http” to “https”. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site or that SSL is completely secure.
Your Rights
You have the following rights in relation to your personal data under the Data Protection Act 1998. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, then please contact us using the contact information set out above.
Finding out what Data we Hold
The Data Protection Act gives you a right to be told what data we hold about you. If you wish to exercise this right, then please contact us using the contact details in this privacy policy. We may charge you a fee of £10 to cover our costs in dealing with your request.
Stopping Marketing
If we are sending you marketing messages, the Data Protection Act gives you a right to ask us to stop doing this. We will provide you with details of how to do this, each time we send you a marketing message. Alternatively, please contact us using our contact details in this policy or on our website.
Use Causing Distress
You have the right to ask us to stop using any data for any purpose, where that purpose is causing you substantial distress. If you have any concerns regarding our use of your data, please contact us using our contact details in this policy.
Changes to your Information
You have the right to ask for the rectification, erasure or blocking of any of your personal information which is inaccurate or not up to date. You may make a request to us to change or modify your information at any time. Further if you are aware at any time that any of the information that you have given to us has changed then please let us know at the earliest opportunity.
Compensation
You may have the right to claim compensation for damage and (in certain cases) distress you suffer if we do not comply with data protection laws.
Complaints to Applicable Authority
The laws we comply with are regulated by the Information Commissioner (www.ico.gov.uk) in the United Kingdom. In addition to your rights above, it is open to you, if you have a complaint or concern, to seek assistance from this regulator, which has powers to compel us to comply with applicable laws and fine us for non-compliance. However, before you do so, we would hope that you will contact us first to discuss any complaint or concerns you have.
