  • Identity data: name, title.

  • Directly from you (checkout, enquiries, email/phone, events).
  • Automatically via cookies and similar technologies when you use the site.
  • From service providers (e.g. payment, delivery, email marketing) where necessary to provide our services.

 

4) How and why we use your data (lawful bases)

We process your personal data only when the law allows:

  • Contract: to process and fulfil orders, commissions and returns; to communicate about your purchase.
  • Legitimate interests: to operate and improve our website, prevent fraud/abuse, provide customer service, and send relevant updates where appropriate (you can opt out at any time).
  • Consent: for email newsletters/marketing where required, and for non-essential cookies (you may withdraw consent at any time).
  • Legal obligation: tax, accounting, and regulatory compliance.

We do not sell your personal data.

Marketing

We will never share your data with third parties for their own marketing. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in our emails or by contacting us.

 

5) Sharing your data

We may share data with trusted service providers acting on our instructions, such as:

  • payment processors;
  • ecommerce/website hosting and IT support;
  • delivery and logistics partners;
  • professional advisers (legal, accounting, insurance);
  • email service providers and analytics platforms;
  • government authorities where required by law.

We require all processors to safeguard your data and use it only for our specified purposes.

 

6) International transfers

Some providers may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as:

  • UK adequacy regulations for the destination country;
  • the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) or UK Addendum to the EU SCCs; and/or
  • other lawful transfer mechanisms.

7) Data security

We use technical and organisational measures to protect your data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or loss.

We also maintain procedures to respond to suspected personal data breaches and will notify you and the ICO where legally required.

 

8) Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy, including satisfying legal, accounting, and reporting requirements. Retention periods vary by data category (e.g., orders are typically kept for up to 6 years for tax). We may anonymise data for research/statistics, in which case it will no longer identify you.
