We are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected, in line with the  General Data Protection Regulations.

The information we collect and how we use it:
When you register with us we need to know your name, postal address, e-mail address, and telephone number.

We gather this information to allow us to process your registration, process any orders you may make and correspond with you. The relevant information is then used by us, our agents and sub-contractors, to communicate with you on any matter relating to the provision of our service in general.

We may retain other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf in relation to the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy. These may include credit/debit card validation and authorisation agencies, data analysis firms, customer support specialists, webhosting and management companies, and fulfilment companies (e.g., companies that coordinate mailings and deliveries). Such third parties may be provided with access to your Personal Information if needed to perform their functions, but they may not use such information for any other purpose. Such third parties may be located in countries both inside and outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). Although countries outside the EEA may not require the same level of protection of Personal Information as countries within the EEA, we always demand that third parties adhere to the same procedures that we follow ourselves with respect to your Personal Information, including this Privacy Policy.

We or our agents and sub-contractors may contact you by post, e-mail or telephone to ask you for your feedback and comments on our services.

We may also use aggregate information and statistics for the purposes of monitoring website usage in order to help us develop the website and our services and may provide such aggregate information to third parties. These statistics will not include information that can be used to identify any individual.
