PRIVACY POLICY

If you register on our site, you will have given us your name, email address and contact details. If you place an order, you may have given us your name, email address, home and delivery address, phone and fax numbers, credit or debit card number and expiry date. Using this information is the only way we can process your order, and be able to notify you of your order's status. See how this information is protected below.

How is this information used?
In addition to processing your order, we monitor the site traffic patterns; this tells us which areas of the site are being visited more than others. It also helps us build a more useful site in subsequent re-designs. We also maintain an order history of your purchases. This allows you and us to track your deliveries and review your past purchases.

If you don't want to receive our newsletters reply to it and ask to have your email address removed.

We do not exchange, sell or otherwise give away your email address to other companies without your expressed permission. Your email addresses are used by yourself, for purposes of logging into your account, and us for emailing you regarding such things as your orders and to update you with our newsletter.

How is your information protected?
Our site uses 128-bit Secure Socket Layers (SSL). This ensures that your transactions are secure. The familiar padlock sign is, however, only visible when you 'buy items'. Once you start entering personal information, whether name and address or credit card details, you will notice the security padlock inside the bottom of the browser window. If you are concerned that you are seeing browser security messages too frequently, check the security levels you have set in your browser. You can then comfortably continue your online ordering.

We guarantee that every online purchase you make from our store is a secure transaction. If you receive an error message from your Web browser indicating that you are moving between secured and unsecured pages while placing your order, please read the message thoroughly and continue with your order.

Who else sees your information?
We may have to disclose your information to service suppliers to complete your order. These parties may include Royal Mail, Parceline and TNT.

When you give us your personal information you consent to this disclosure and allow us to make our service available to you.

We may also be able to use a cookie to tell when you last visited and who you are if you are visiting from the same computer.

Your Consent
