In all cases, our need to use your personal information will be reassessed on a regular basis, and information which is no longer required for any purposes will be disposed of.

These emails will only be sent to those who have opted-in for that particular type of marketing.
Security
We know how much trust you place in us when you share your personal data. Because of that we place great importance on the security of your personal information and will always take appropriate precautions to protect it.
This website and the "checkout" pages on our webstore use industry standard software protection for secure financial transactions. Your personal information such as your credit card number, name, and address, is securely encrypted so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. We never hold your credit card details on our website or in our own records.
Even with all these precautions, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. So, whilst we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information which you disclose to us online and you must understand that you do so at your own risk. We take care to protect your personal information.
We take steps to ensure that access to personal information is restricted to employees who need it and that all employees who handle personal information are fully trained and kept up-to-date on our data management, security and privacy practices. Our employees are notified and reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure your information is protected
How do we protect your Information across borders?
The internet works as a global environment. This means that using it to collect and process personal data often involves the international transmission of data including outside of the European Economic Area (EEA).
Our third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, are located in or have facilities that are located in a different country or territory to the UK. If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of one of our third-party service providers, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. Your personal data is protected under applicable laws such as the European Commission Data Adequacy or they are certified with the international Privacy Shield Framework.
Once you leave our online store or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.

Cookies
A cookie is a small amount of data, which may include a unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device, enabling companies to recognise your device across websites. Among other things, these store your preferences and settings; enable you to sign-in; provide interest-based advertising; combat fraud; and analyse how our website and online services are performing.
We use cookies as well as the Device Information that we collect to recognise your device or IP address when you visit our website. Cookies allow our server to recognise your device for future visits.
A cookie, also known as HTTP cookie, web cookie or browser cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site.
Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.
We use cookies to identify which pages are being visited. This helps us to analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes.
This website uses a variety of cookies to improve the quality of your experience;
• Essential and Functional Cookies - without these cookies certain functions of our website would not work, such as login, registration and password areas
• Analytical Cookies - these cookies monitor how visitors use our website. This analytical information is anonymous and we only see what you have visited, not who you are
• Advertising Cookies - if we use advertising on our site, these cookies help us to know if you have seen an advert
• Third Party Cookies - these cookies are dropped by other websites. For instance, if we host a video on YouTube.com and embed that on our site, when you click "play" YouTube drops a cookie on your machine so it knows you have watched it. Another example would be if you hit the Facebook "like" button, the social media site will drop a cookie.
A cookie does not give us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.
You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. However, this may prevent you from taking full advantage of our website.
