There are different types of personal data that we may use, store and transfer to other people to process on our behalf. To help you understand these different kinds of personal information we have grouped them together as follows:

  • Identity Data this would be names, such as your first or last names or perhaps your username, along with your titles, such as Ms, Mrs or Dr, your date of birth and your identified gender.
  • Contact Data this could be physical addresses you may supply, for billing or delivery of your orders along with telephone numbers, social network or messaging service usernames or email addresses.
  • Financial Data this could be your bank account or payment card details

Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal information but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a particular range of our offerings on a particular day and how many completed a purchase.

If we have the ability to connect this Aggregated Data to personal data we hold about you, for example by an IP address or username, so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy policy.

You can find more information about this standard (https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/pci_security/). We give the option for you to store your card details safely for use in future transactions. This is carried out in compliance with PCI-DSS and in a way where none of our staff members can see your full card number. We never store your 3 or 4-digit security code.

We will not transfer, process or store your data anywhere that is outside of the European Economic Area, unless we have a contractual agreement in place that is of an equivalent standard to GDPR.

  1. DATA RETENTION

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for or you have agreed for us to keep it. This will include ensuring we can satisfy any legal, accounting, fraud prevention or reporting requirements.

We will always consider how long we retain your data for taking into account the amount of data we hold, along with its sensitivity along with the risk of this data being disclosed, the impact this would have on you, as well as whether we can achieve the same outcomes in our business without retaining it in personally identifiable form, such as anonymising the data.

  1. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

Data protection laws give you rights, in certain circumstances, rights in relation to your personal data. These are laid out in GDPR and include

  1. a) The right to request access to your personal information

If you wish to request a copy of the data we hold about you, please use the details at the end of this policy to get in touch with us. If you are a citizen of a European country and you consider the processing of your data by us to be unlawful, you may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioners Office.

  1. b) Request correction of your personal information

If you believe the information we hold about you to be inaccurate, you have the right to request that we correct this.

  1. c) Request erasure of your personal information

You have the right to request that we delete or remove personal information where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. There may be specific reasons where we cannot agree to erasure of your information, such as to fulfil legal or contractual obligations, such as accounting, audit and fraud prevention. You will be advised if there are any reasons why we cannot agree

  1. d) Object to processing of your personal information

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

  1. e) Request restriction of processing your personal information

You have the right to request that we suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

  1. f) Request transfer of your personal information

You have the right to request that the personal information we hold about you is transferred to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, exampes of this may be your personal details, profile and associated notes, along with your order history. Please note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.

  1. g) Right to withdraw consent

In circumstances where we are relying on your consent to process your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you, such as product updates or sell goods to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

Please also note the following: –

We will not look to charge a fee in most cases

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

We may ask you to prove your identity or to confirm information you provide to us

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

We will aim to respond within one month.

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
