What information do we collect from you?
We obtain information about you when you place an order, contact us, or if you register for one of our newsletters. The information we may collect includes your name, address, telephone number, email address and the details of products ordered.

We may also collect data recording your IP address and the pages you viewed when you visited our site, using Google Analytics.

If you completed an order and paid using a credit card these details are not held by us but are collected by our third-party payment providers.

How is your information used?
We gather this information to allow us to process any orders you may make. We will use your contact details only to let you know of any delays or problems with your order.

We may also use aggregate information and statistics for the purposes of monitoring website usage to help us develop our website and services.

We will only share your details with 3rd parties like our couriers when it is necessary and only in connection with the delivery of your order.

Use of 'cookies'
A cookie is a message given to a web browser by a web server. The message is then stored by the browser in a text file called cookie.txt. Each time the browser requests a page from the server, this message is sent back. A cookie's main objective is to identify users and personalise their visit by customising web pages for them, for example by welcoming them by name next time they visit the same site.

It is possible to switch off cookies in your browser settings but this may stop you from being able to place an order or loss of functionality when using our website.
