Our legal basis for processing your personal information

When we use your personal information we are required to have a legal basis for doing so. There are various different legal bases on which we may rely, depending on what personal information we process and why.

The legal bases we may rely on include:

- consent: where you have given us clear consent for us to process your personal information for a specific purpose. A good example is where you tick a box to receive email newsletters.

- contract: in certain circumstances, we need your personal data to comply with our contractual obligations. For example, if you order an item from us, we’ll collect your address details to deliver your purchase, and pass them to our courier provider.

- legal obligation: where our use of your personal information is necessary for us to comply with the law, such as providing details of people involved in fraud to law enforcement.

- legitimate interests: where our use of your personal information is necessary for our legitimate interests, such as providing you with the best service/products and with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customised experience (unless there is a good reason to protect your personal information which overrides our legitimate interests).

Who we may share your personal information with

- we sometimes share your personal data with trusted third parties. For example, this could include:

- delivery providers or couriers so that they can deliver your order to you.

- our e-commerce and payment processing providers (including foxy.io, Paypal, Airtable and Stripe) who carry out financial transactions and payment processing activities.

 - IT companies who support our website and other business systems.

- marketing companies who help us manage our electronic communications with you.

We provide only the information they need to perform their specific services.

We will share personal information with law enforcement or other authorities if required by applicable law.

We will not share your personal information with any other third party.

Transfer of your information out of the UK and EEA

Sometimes we will need to share your personal data with third parties and suppliers outside the UK and the European Economic Area (EEA). For example, this might be required in order to fulfil your order, process your payment details or provide support services.

Such countries do not have the same data protection laws as the UK and EEA. If we transfer personal information to countries outside of the EEA, we may rely on a decision from the European Commission (or, in the case of the UK, the Secretary of State) determining that the country provides an adequate level of protection to the Data Protection Laws. We may also rely on the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework where the transfer is to the US.Alternatively, we may rely on appropriate safeguards set out by law in respect of transfers of personal information to a country outside of the EEA, for example, by agreeing standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission or the UK Government.

A copy of the standard contractual clauses are available on the European Commission's website here and for more information about the EU-USPrivacy Shield Framework for US companies, please click here.
