Who we share your information with

We share personal information only where necessary to operate our business and provide our services.

This may include Shopify, payment processors, email and marketing providers such as Klaviyo, delivery couriers, fulfilment partners, professional advisers and other service providers involved in operating our website or fulfilling your order.

We may also disclose information where required by law.

We do not sell your personal information.

Shopify

Our online store is powered by Shopify. Shopify processes certain personal information in connection with your use of our website and the operation of our store.

Shopify may use service providers or process information in countries outside the UK in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.

International transfers

Some of the service providers we use may process or store personal information outside the UK.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we and our service providers use appropriate safeguards where required by data protection law.

How long we keep your information

We keep personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and to meet our legal and regulatory obligations.

Order, accounting and tax records are normally retained for up to six years where required for legal and tax purposes.

Marketing information is generally retained until you unsubscribe, withdraw your consent where applicable, or ask us to delete it, unless we have another lawful reason to retain it.

Under UK data protection law, depending on the circumstances, you may have the right to:

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe your personal information has been mishandled.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to operate essential website functions, remember preferences, understand how the website is used and, where applicable, support analytics and marketing.

Where required, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies. You can also manage your cookie preferences through the options provided on our website and through your browser settings.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information online can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
