This Policy
This policy (together with our terms of use and any other documents referred to therein) sets out the basis on which any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us, will be processed by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it.
For the purpose of the Data Protection Act 1998 (the Act), the data controller is the owner.
Information we may collect from you
We may collect and process the following data:
- Information provided through a contact form on our site, including requests for further services and when you report a problem with our site. If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence within our email server, offline mail storage or another external service (such as MailChimp or Gmail). External services are outside of our control and therefore will have their own policies in place.
- Details of transactions you carry out through our site and of the fulfilment of your orders (where e-commerce is available).
- Details of your visits to our site including, but not limited to, traffic data and location data.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site. For detailed information on the cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them see our Cookie Policy.
Where we store your personal data
The data that we collect from you, will be stored on the email system (see above).
Where the information is saved away from email, it will be password protected within a device (mobile, tablet or computer). This information may be held locally on the device (internal memory/hard drive) or within a password protected cloud storage solution (such as “OneDrive, iCloud or Dropbox” etc).
Either the device or cloud solution will be password protected, and saved information will only be used within our company, for the purposes of order fulfilment, processing of your payment details or the provision of services or support. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
Payment transactions on our site are handled securely by an External Service Provider.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to the site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
Uses made of the information
We use information held about you in the following ways:
- To ensure that content from our site is presented in the most effective manner for you and for your computer.
- To provide you with information, products or services that you request from us or which we feel may interest you, where you have consented to be contacted for such purposes.
- To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into between you and us.
- To allow you to participate in interactive features of our service, when you choose to do so.
- To notify you about changes to our service.
If you are an existing customer, we will only contact you by electronic means (e-mail or SMS) with information about goods and services similar to those which were the subject of a previous sale to you.

This includes exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
