Use and collection of personal information

What information do we collect?

We may collect, store and use information about your visits to and use of this website.

Who will see the data?

People in our organisation or working for our organisation who need your data in order to carry out the service we are providing you and which you have consented to.
After collecting data from you that you have consented for us to use, we may transfer it other parts of our organisation. We will only do this where we have a legitimate reason or consent to do so such as reply to a query you have submitted through the contact form.

Using your personal data

Personal data submitted on this website will be used for the purposes specified in this privacy policy or in relevant parts of the website. The data you share and provide will be used to carry out the services that you request from us. We will only use it to contact you where we have a legitimate reason to do so, or where you have provided consent for this: it will only be used for the purpose for which it is supplied.

At any time you can change your mind or withdraw your consent about the way we use your personal data. If you wish to do this, please contact [email protected].

There may be circumstances where we are required to disclose personal data without seeking the consent of the data subject. Where these circumstances occur, we will employ legal assistance where necessary, verify the request is legitimate and only then disclose the data. This is to the extent that we are required to do so by law.

How long do we hold information for?

If we have not had meaningful contact with you for two years, we will then delete any personal data we hold.

At any time you may ask us to delete your personal data, and we will do so subject to any legal restrictions or our ability to do so. Any personal data that is deleted is logged anonymously, with details on what was removed and when this took place.

How can you control your personal information?

At any time you can change your mind about the personal information we hold. Contact [email protected] to ask that this be done.

Third party websites

The website contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies of third party websites.

Affiliate links

This website contains affiliate links - not all products featured on the website have an associated affiliate link, and we try to ensure there is a range of items on this website from a number of sources to provide appropriate variety. Where there is an affiliate link, we will receive a small percentage if you click the link and go on to make a purchase. This does not increase the price for what you are buying, it is essentially a way for the retailer to provide us with a small figure for referring you to their product.

Security

We will take reasonable precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information. Of course, data transmission over the internet is inherently insecure, and we cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the internet.

Your rights

Under the GRPR, you have the following individual rights:

General

If you believe that any information we are holding on you is incorrect or incomplete, please email us as soon as possible at the above email address. We will immediately correct any information found to be incorrect.

Cookie Policy

We use cookies on this website. A cookie is a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The text file is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser. To find out more about cookies, including seeing what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Cookies have various different functions, but essentially they are used to allow websites to respond to you as an individual and how you use it. Cookies in no way give us access to your computer or any information other than the data you choose to share with us.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies when you enter our website and see the cookie notice. Most browsers also allow you to refuse to accept cookies (for example, in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookie by clicking “Tools”, “Internet Options”, “Privacy”, and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector). This will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites, including this one.

Do not track (DNT) is a feature offered by some browsers, with some newer browsers offering it as default. If you enable it, it sends a signal to websites to request that your browsing isn't tracked, for example by third party ad or social networks, or analytic companies. You can also delete any cookies that are already stored on your computer’s hard drive.

A table of the cookies we use on our website is set out below. If you do not wish to accept cookies from our website, please leave this site immediately and then delete and block all cookies from this site. Alternatively, you may opt out of receiving information from us by emailing us on [email protected]. Please be aware that aspects of this website may not work if you reject the cookies.
