They are needed to make some basic functions of the website work; if cookies aren’t enabled on your computer, you will be limited to browsing and researching our website, and you won’t be able to add products to your basket or buy them.

Sharing your personal information

I will never sell, loan or barter with your personal information, nor disclose your personal or financial information to anyone other than to trusted third parties that we rely on in order to perform specific functions on our behalf (for example, I use WordPress & WooCommerce to power my online shop. You can see further details of these third parties below.).

In general, the third-party providers used by me will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information I am required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.
For these providers, I recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

I use third parties such as Royal Mail, MyHermes, DPD and DHL to ship products, in the process of which it is necessary for me to provide personally identifiable information such as your name, shipping address, email address, and phone number.

I may also be required to disclose your personal information to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, if we are required by law to do so, or if you violate our Terms of Service.

Email and social media marketing

With your permission and on your request I may send you emails about new products and other updates.
When you provide me with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, I imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.

Your rights

You have the right to request access to any personal information I have about you and to ask that your personal information be corrected, updated, or deleted.

 

Data Retention

I do not purposefully store personal data beyond when it is needed.

PayPal and the merchant agree to comply with the requirements of the Data Protection Laws applicable to controllers in respect of the provision of their respective services and otherwise in connection with this Agreement.
