• any feedback you give to us;
• details of the telephone conversations, emails and other electronic communications that you have sent to us (including completing a survey, uploading photographs, requesting a call back from a sales representative or reporting a problem with our products).

If you make a payment online or purchase a product from us, your card information is not held by us, it is collected by our third-party payment processors, who specialise in the secure online capture and processing of credit/debit card transactions.

We may use your information to:

• make our products or services available to you;
• process your orders;
• carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into by you and us;
• take payment from you or give you a refund;
• help us to prevent fraud;

• where you have given your consent (if necessary), contact you about our products and services, including to seek your views or comments on the products and services we provide;

How might we share your data?

We will never sell your details to other companies so that they can market to you.

Your name, address and contact details may be shared with our suppliers and delivery contractors to ensure that we can fulfil our contractual arrangement with you to deliver the products and services you purchase from us.

Suppliers who deliver to you directly will be passed your full contact details, that you provide us, to allow them to fulfil this requirement. In some cases, where they are responsible for the product guarantee, this information may be stored for the full period of the guarantee to allow them to fulfil this.

If you provide information to us about any person other than yourself (e.g. to arrange for delivery of the product), you must ensure that the third party has understood how their information will be used and you must ensure that they have given their permission for you to share their information.

 

International Transfers of Your Personal Information

In certain circumstances, we may transfer your personal information to our suppliers or service providers based outside of the EEA for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. These countries may not have similar data protection laws to the UK. By submitting your personal data, you’re agreeing to this transfer, storing and processing.

In these circumstances, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that your personal information is adequately protected in accordance with our privacy policy.

Your interests

When we process your personal information for our legitimate interests, we will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection and any other relevant law. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

How do we store your data?

Any personal data provided to us is stored on our secure servers and those of our service providers. Any download of information relating to any transactions entered into on our site will be encrypted to help ensure its safety.

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulations (EU 2016/679), we employ strict physical, electronic and administrative security measures to protect your information from access by unauthorised persons and against unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage both on-line and off-line. 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.

Legal Obligations

You should be aware that if we are requested by the police or any other regulatory or government authority investigating suspected illegal activities to provide your personal information, we may be obliged to do so.
