How Do We Collect Your Information?

You provide us with your information directly when you sign up for free information, sign up for calls (free or paid), shop online, or register for a competition, service, or event.

We may also collect elements of your information indirectly. For example, if you purchase anything that requires delivery to your address, we will update our records with this information. Similarly, if we are informed that you are no longer at the address we have on file for you, we will update our records.

We collect and use information about you to provide you with a better customer experience. This includes instances where we use your information in order to provide you with a service or fulfill our contractual obligations to you, where you have given your consent, and/or where we have identified a legitimate business interest that helps us deliver a better customer experience.

 

Information Collected When You Make A Purchase

When you make a purchase online, we will collect the necessary information about you to ensure we can fulfill your order or chosen service.

If you choose to pay by card, we will need to collect your payment information in order to process payment. We may ask for additional information from you for a number of reasons: for example, to prevent fraudulent transactions or to comply with anti-money laundering obligations for high-value transactions.

• Access to your personal information (subject access request). You can ask to see a copy of the personal information that we hold about you. Please note: we may need to exclude certain information from your request for the protection of other individuals’ privacy or because we are permitted to exclude information for legal or other reasons justified under the Data Protection Act 2018.

Managing your marketing communications

At any point that you interact with us, you may be given the opportunity to opt-in to receive our marketing communications. We will only send you marketing communications when you have consented to receive them.

To ensure that you are happy to continue to receive marketing communications, we will notify you in emails of your right to manage your marketing preferences (and give you the option to unsubscribe).

 

How long will we hold your information?
• If you have not updated your marketing preferences in the two years since we last obtained your consent (or been notified of your right to manage your marketing preferences) but have made a purchase or attended an event during that two-year period, or engaged with our marketing emails in the 6 months prior to that two year period expiring, we will send you a reminder of your right to opt-out of marketing communications. If you do not opt-out, we will continue to communicate with you in the same way until you indicate otherwise or until your account is deleted.

• If you have not updated your marketing preferences, made a purchase or attended an event in the two years since we last obtained consent and if you have not engaged with our marketing emails in the 6 months prior to that two year period expiring we will ask you to re-subscribe to continue to receive marketing communications from us. If you do not re-subscribe, we will stop sending you marketing communications.

If you have given us your email address or mobile phone number and agreed to receive marketing communications from us, we may supply this information to digital advertising or social media companies, including Facebook, Google, Instagram, Pinterest, and YouTube. These companies work on our behalf to identify individuals with similar characteristics to our customers and provide these individuals with advertising content from us. We also work with these companies to target or retarget you directly with advertisements that we believe you will be interested in.

The information we provide to these digital advertising or social media companies is limited to your name, email address, or mobile phone number and is always provided in an encrypted format. We use your personal information in this manner as it is in our legitimate interest to advertise to you and to potential new customers. This use of your personal information allows us to understand more about your behaviour and use the information to provide you with more personalised advertisements. If you would like to stop us using your information in this way, please contact us at [email protected]. If you would prefer not to see targeted advertising on social media, please refer to the instructions provided by Facebook, Google, Instagram, Pinterest, and YouTube.
