When you make purchases from us or create an account with us, you have the opportunity to consent to receive our marketing materials. This is a two-stage process whereby ticking the consent box will lead to you receiving an email with a link that you need to click.

DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION
Our policy is plain and simple.
We will never sell your data or share it with other companies.
The information you provide to us may be accessed by or given to third parties where those parties process information, fulfil and deliver orders, process credit card payments and provide support services on our behalf. Some of these third parties are located outside of the European Economic Area. These parties handle data in a way which is aligned to the GDPR requirements.
Finally, if our business enters into a joint venture with or is sold to or merged with another business entity, your information may be disclosed to our new business partners or owners.
Unless required to do so by law, we will not otherwise share, sell or distribute any of the information you provide to us without your consent.

SECURITY AND DATA RETENTION
We employ security measures to protect your information from access by unauthorised persons and against unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage.
