10.2 We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which goods and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing). You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased goods from us and you have not opted out of receiving that marketing. 

10.3 Generally, we do not rely on consent as a lawful basis for processing your personal data (see paragraph 9 for information on which lawful bases we do rely on), although we will get your consent before sending third party direct marketing communications to you via email or text message. You have the right to withdraw consent to marketing at any time by contacting us or by following the opt-out (unsubscribe) links on any marketing message sent to you. There may be circumstances when we can lawfully send marketing messages without your express consent, for example, where you have enquired about or have purchased goods from us, and it is in our legitimate interests to get in touch with you about similar products and services

10.4 We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your personal data with any third party for marketing purposes.

Opting out 

10.5 You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by following the opt-out (unsubscribe) links on any marketing message sent to you.

10.6 Even if you have opted out of marketing messages, we may still need to send you communications that are not direct marketing messages (service communications) from time to time either because we are legally required to do so, or to provide you with important updates relating to our services or your order.

10.7 Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of a purchase of our goods or account registration.

11. 2 If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you by email or we will update this privacy policy in accordance with paragraph 5 and we will explain the lawful basis which allows us to do so. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us at [email protected].

13.1 We share your personal data within the Company Group. This will involve transferring your data outside the UK or EEA.

15.2 To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

15.3 Please contact us should you require any further information about the specific length of time that we retain your personal data for.

15.4 In some circumstances you can ask us to delete your data: see ‘Your legal rights’ below for further information.

1. GLOSSARY

This Glossary contains terms used throughout the privacy policy. 

1.1 Lawful basis

1.1.1 Legitimate Interest means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best goods and the best and most secure experience. We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law). You can obtain further information about how we assess our legitimate interests against any potential impact on you in respect of specific activities by contacting us.

2. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

You have the right to:

2.1 Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

2.2 Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

2.3 Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

2.4 Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

2.5 Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:

  • If you want us to establish the data’s accuracy.
  • Where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it.
  • Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
  • You have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

2.6 Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.

2.7 Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide our goods or certain services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
