Where do you store the information you collect

We will only store and transfer your personal data within the European Economic Area (the “EEA”). The EEA consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. This means that your personal data will be fully protected under the GDPR to equivalent standards by law. Should information need to be transferred out of the EU/EEA (due to cloud storage) this will be done under the Privacy Shield.

How long do we retain the information we collect

We will not keep your personal data for any longer than is necessary in light of the reason(s) in which it was first collected. Your personal data will therefore be kept for the following periods (where there is no fixed period, the following facts will be used to determine how long it is kept):

      Personal details for as long as a contractual relationship exists between us.

      Contact details for an indefinite period following our contractual relationship terminating to prove the existence of such a relationship.

      Information for the purpose of legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes and to enforce agreements for an indeterminate period of time.

Cookies

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies". Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.

The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

The length of time that a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies last until you stop browsing and persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Most of the cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device.

In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/.  or http://www.youronlinechoices.com.

We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. These cookies are broken down into the following categories:

Your Privacy Choices

At checkout and upon first arriving at the site you will have the option to receive marketing communications from us, by ticking a box indicating that you would like to receive such communications during checkout or at any time while browsing the site by entering your email address into our newsletter sign-up form.  You may sign up for our e-newsletter on our website or opt-in to receive news, offers, or updates on out-of-stock items.

You have control regarding our use of your personal information for direct marketing.  If you no longer wish to receive any marketing communications, remain on a mailing list to which you previously subscribed, or receive any other marketing communication, you can choose to not receive such communications at any time.  Please follow the unsubscribe link in the relevant communication (e.g., ticking a box to opt-out, clicking “unsubscribe” in an email from us).

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights, which we will always work to uphold:

      The right to be informed about our collection and use of your personal data. This Privacy Notice should tell you everything you need to know, but you can always contact us to find out or to ask any questions using the details in the contact section.

      The right to access the personal data we hold about you.

      The right to have your personal data rectified if any of your personal data held by us is inaccurate or incomplete. Please contact us using the details in the contact section to find out more.

      The right to be forgotten, i.e. the right to ask us to delete or otherwise dispose of any of your personal data that we have. Please contact us using the details in the contact section to submit your request.

      The right to restrict (i.e. prevent) the processing of your personal data.

      The right to object to us using your personal data for a particular purpose or purposes.

      The right to data portability. This means that, if you have provided personal data to us directly, we are using it with your consent for the performance of a contract, and that data is processed using automated means, you can ask us for a copy of that personal data to re-use with another service business in many cases.

      Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling. [we do not use your personal data in this way]

How Can I access my personal data
If you want to know what personal data we have about you, you can ask us for details of that personal data and for a copy of it (where any such personal data is held). This is known as a “subject access request”.

All subject access requests should be made in writing and sent to the email or postal addresses shown in the contact section.

There is not normally any charge for a subject access request. If your request is ‘manifestly unfounded excessive’ (for example, if you make repetitive requests) a fee may be charged to cover our administrative costs in responding.

We will respond to your subject access request within 30 days and, in any case, not more than one month after receiving it. Normally, we aim to provide a complete response, including a copy of your personal data within that time. In some cases, however, particularly if your request is more complex, more time may be required up to a maximum of three months from the date we receive your request. You will be kept fully informed of our progress.

Further Information and Complaints

Whilst this privacy notice sets out a general summary of your legal rights in respect of personal information, this is a complex area of law. More information about your legal rights can be found on the ICO’s website at https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/.

Further information about your rights can also be obtained from the Information Commissioner’s Office, your local Citizens Advice Bureau.

If you have any cause for complaint about our use of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office - https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/.

Third-Party Links and Third-Party Advertising

This website contains links and references to other websites (e.g. social media buttons) administered by unaffiliated third parties. This privacy policy does not apply to such third-party websites. When you click a link to visit a third-party website, you will be subject to that website's privacy policies. The inclusion of a linked site or service by us or by our affiliates does not imply endorsement. We encourage you to familiarise yourself with the best privacy and security practices before visiting any third-party websites.

This site may be linked via sponsored links (or advertisements / sponsored posts) and adverts. These will typically be served through our advertising partners who may have detailed privacy policies relating directly to the adverts they serve. Although this site only looks to include quality, safe and relevant external links, you should always adopt a policy of caution before clicking any external web links.


Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect, for example, changes to our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will specify at the end of this policy the date of the last policy update(s).
