We will take all reasonable care to maintain appropriate safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the information you have provided to us. We have put in place technology and security policies which are designed to protect the personal information we hold about you. We also follow the security procedures that applicable privacy laws require. When you place an order, or access your account information, we use a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption which encrypts your information before it is sent to us to protect it from unauthorised use. However, the Internet is not a completely secure medium for communication and, we therefore cannot guarantee the security of any information you send to us (or we send to you) via the Internet; any transmission is at your own risk and we are not responsible for any damages which you, or others, may suffer as a result of the loss of confidentiality of such information.
Using your information in accordance with this Privacy & Cookie Policy, may with your consent involve sending your information outside the European Economic Area (EEA). While we will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your personal information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy & Cookie Policy, some places outside of the EEA may not have adequate data protection laws at all or may offer differing levels of protection of personal data which are not as high as in the UK. By submitting your personal information to us, you acknowledge that provided we have used your information in the ways set out in this Privacy & Cookie Policy, we cannot be held responsible for any use of your information by third parties who receive and process your information.
We are not responsible and do not warrant or guarantee that the privacy policies, of any seller, or any other companies that your personal information is passed to in accordance with this privacy policy, comply with data protection legislation. We are not responsible for any damages which you or others may suffer as a result of the loss of confidentiality of such information. When you place an order with us, your shipping details (and if appropriate phone and mobile numbers) that you submit at registration must by necessity be forwarded to the seller along with the order, so you may want to read the seller’s privacy policy also.
