Information Collection

In order to fulfil the orders you place with us, we need to gather and store information about you such as your name, delivery address, contact details, email address and credit/debit card details.

We keep a record of your purchases to enable us to send you relevant offers and communications and deal with any queries relating to an order.

We also gather general information on our website 'traffic patterns' in terms of 'hits' and areas of the site being visited. We very occasionally track individual orders.  We also receive personal data from third parties or other sources.
