We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
We may share relevant information with trusted service providers where necessary to operate our business and provide our services. These may include payment processors, delivery and courier companies, website hosting providers, IT and security providers, analytics services, and other suppliers who assist us in operating the website.
We may also disclose information where required by law, legal proceedings, regulatory authorities, or where necessary to protect our rights, customers, website, or business.
Order and Delivery Information
When you place an order, certain information may need to be shared with delivery or courier providers so that your order can be processed and delivered to you.
For certain UK locations, including specific Highland areas and postcodes, additional delivery arrangements or charges may apply. Where international delivery is available, information may also be shared with appropriate delivery providers to fulfil the requested shipment.
Marketing Communications
Where permitted by law and where appropriate consent has been provided, we may use your email address or other contact information to send information about products, offers, promotions, or other updates that may be relevant to you.
You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time by following the relevant unsubscribe instructions or contacting us through the Contact Us page.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
However, no website, online transaction, or method of electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We encourage customers to take appropriate steps to protect their account and personal information.
How Long We Keep Your Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including fulfilling orders, providing customer support, maintaining appropriate business records, resolving disputes, preventing fraud, and meeting legal, accounting, or regulatory requirements.
When information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete or anonymise it where appropriate.
