Our Lawful Bases for Using Your Information

 

Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for using your personal information.

 

Depending on the circumstances, we may process your information because:

 

- It is necessary to fulfil a contract with you.

For example, we need your name, address and order information to process and deliver something you have purchased from us.

 

- We have a legal obligation.

We may need to retain certain transaction and financial information to meet our legal, accounting or tax obligations.

 

- We have a legitimate business interest.

For example, we may use information where reasonably necessary to prevent fraud, protect our business, respond to customer enquiries or understand and improve how our website is used.

 

- You have given us consent.

Where consent is required, such as for certain marketing communications or non-essential cookies, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

 

Wix and Other Service Providers

 

Our website and online store are powered by Wix.

 

We may share personal information with trusted companies that provide services necessary to operate our business, such as:

 

- Wix and website service providers

- Payment processors

- Delivery and postal services

- IT, security and website service providers

These organisations may only receive the information necessary for them to provide their services or where disclosure is otherwise permitted or required by law.

 

Cookies

 

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies. Some cookies are necessary for the website and online shop to function correctly, while others may help us understand how visitors use our website or provide additional features.

 

Where required, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies.

 

You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie settings available on our website.

 

International Data Transfers

 

Some of the companies that provide services to our website may process or store information outside the United Kingdom.

 

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we rely on appropriate safeguards or other lawful mechanisms required by UK data protection law.

 

How Long We Keep Your Information

 

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to fulfil orders, provide customer service and meet legal, accounting and tax requirements.

 

Different types of information may therefore be kept for different periods.

 

When information is no longer required, we will delete or securely dispose of it where appropriate.
