How we use personal data
The data that you provide enables us to allow you access to certain areas of our website, as well as enabling you to request quotes or place orders with us. It also allows us to better serve you when it comes to requests that may require us to refer to your previous order activity.
We are sometimes required to pass some provided information on to third-parties, but these are to couriers for the purpose of the delivery of ordered products and our email service provider for the purpose of email delivery. In some circumstances we may also use a third-party to provide a delivery service on our behalf. In each case the only information passed on is a delivery name, delivery address and delivery contact number.
All of our customer information is stored on a server and database operated by a third-party. However, they do not access the data, they only provide and maintain the service on which the data is stored.
We never pass on any data to third-parties other than those who are required for us to process and fulfill orders on your behalf.
We will only contact you with marketing communications if you have given us your expressed consent. This can be changed at any time in the ‘Account’ section of our website.
