6. Our Lawful Bases for Processing

Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful basis for processing your personal data. Depending on the situation, we rely on one or more of the following:

  • Contract. Where we need to process your data to fulfil an order or take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

  • Consent. Where you have agreed to receive marketing communications or accepted non-essential cookies.

  • Legitimate interests. Where it is reasonably necessary for us to run and improve our business, website, and customer service, provided your rights do not override those interests.

  • Legal obligation. Where we must keep records or disclose information to comply with legal or regulatory duties.

ICO guidance says people should be told the lawful basis for how their data is used, and, where consent is relied on, they should also be told they can withdraw it. 

7. Marketing Communications

If you opt in, we may send you updates, offers, product news, or other marketing communications by email or other electronic means.

You can unsubscribe from marketing at any time by:

  • clicking the unsubscribe link in an email, or

  • contacting us directly

Individuals have the right to object to direct marketing at any time. 

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • make the website work properly

  • remember your preferences

  • measure website traffic and performance

  • understand how visitors use the site

  • improve content and marketing performance

Some cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. Others, such as analytics or marketing cookies, may require your consent depending on how they are used. ICO guidance states that organisations must explain what cookies do and why they are used, and must obtain consent for non-essential cookies. 

You can control cookies through:

  • our cookie banner or consent tool, where available

  • your browser settings

9. Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal data.

We may share your data with trusted third parties where necessary to run our business and website, such as:

  • website hosting providers

  • CRM and automation providers, including Flottion-based systems where relevant

  • payment processors

  • email marketing platforms

  • analytics providers

  • delivery or fulfilment partners

  • professional advisers

  • legal or regulatory authorities where required

We only share personal data where there is a legitimate reason to do so and expect service providers to handle it securely and lawfully.

10. International Transfers

Some of our service providers may store or process personal data outside the UK. Where this happens, we will take reasonable steps to ensure your data is protected through appropriate safeguards required by law, such as approved contractual protections. ICO guidance says privacy information should explain transfers and safeguards where relevant. 

11. How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to:

  • fulfil orders and manage customer service

  • comply with legal, tax, accounting or regulatory obligations

  • resolve disputes

  • maintain business records

If we do not have a fixed retention period for a particular type of data, we apply retention criteria based on the nature of the data, the purpose it was collected for, and any legal obligations that apply. ICO guidance says privacy notices should include retention periods or the criteria used to determine them. 

12. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, misuse, disclosure, loss, or alteration.

However, no method of transmitting or storing data online is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

13. Your Rights

Under UK GDPR, you may have the right to:

  • access the personal data we hold about you

  • request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data

  • request deletion of your data in certain circumstances

  • request restriction of processing

  • object to processing in certain circumstances

  • request transfer of your data where applicable

  • withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

  • complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)

ICO guidance says privacy notices should tell individuals what rights they have and how they can complain.
