How we use your personal data.

We collect, keep, use, or share your information only for genuine business purposes in our legitimate interests, when you’ve approved us to do so or when we’re legally obliged to.

We will use your personal data only when the law allows us to. Below are the circumstances of which we will most commonly use your personal data: -

  • When you purchase from us and we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into.
  • Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

  • We may request your consent to process your personal data in limited circumstances.


Lawful Basis

For us to process your personal data, we must have a legal basis for the processing. The data protection legislation sets out what these bases are. Below are the different bases that we rely on:- 

  • Performance of Contract. This is where processing your data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party. For example, when you purchase from us, it creates a contract between us. To fulfil our part of the contract and deliver the products to you, we need to process your personal data that you provide. If you do not provide your details we will be unable to complete your order.
  • Legitimate Interest. This means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best service/product and the best and most secure experience. We ensure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests override the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). Further information is available on how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us. You have the right to object if you do not want us to process any of the personal data we have listed as being processed for legitimate interests. For more information, see your legal rights section below. Please note that if you object, we may continue to process your personal data in certain circumstances. Please also keep in mind that if we can’t process your personal data for these purposes, your customer experience may not be as enjoyable.
  • Consent. This means processing your personal data where you have explicitly told us that you will allow us to do so. If you provide us with consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
  • Legal Obligation Compliance. This means processing your data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation that we are subject to.
