• To notify you about any changes to our website, such as improvements or product changes, that may affect our service

Third party service providers

We employ other companies to process credit card payments. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes. Further, they must process the personal information in accordance with this Privacy Notice and as permitted by the UK's Data Protection Act. We do not knowingly partner with any parties with less than an excellent track record and sound policies in these areas.

If you are an existing customer, we may contact you with information about goods similar to those which were the subject of a previous sale to you.

We will never collect sensitive information about you without your explicit consent.
We will not disclose any personally identifiable information without your permission unless:

• We are legally obliged to do so (for example, pursuant to a court order or for the purposes of prevention of crime or fraud). You will be treated as having given your permission for disclosures referred to in this policy
• We are in negotiations with a third party for the sale or purchase of any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your data possibly including your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets whilst they are party to a non disclosure agreement
• All, or substantially all of our assets, are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by us about our customers may be some of the transferred assets and will be transferred subject to continuing privacy obligations on the same or substantially the same terms as we are
• We need to enforce or apply our terms of use and other agreements; or to protect our rights, property, safety, customers, or others

It is possible to obtain a copy of the information that we hold about you.  If you find any inaccuracies we will delete or correct it promptly.  A nominal charge of £10 is made to cover administrative costs involved, as laid out by the Data Protection Act 1998.  Should you require a copy of such information, please write to us at:
