    Communicating with you (including by email and SMS) about your orders or about your account.

  • - Help us monitor, improve and protect our products, content and website.
  • - Personalise our products and website for you.
  • - Protect our business and your account from fraud and other illegal activities. This includes using your personal data to maintain, update and safeguard your account.

SAFEGUARDING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We take all reasonable care to maintain appropriate safeguards to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the information you have provided to us. We have put in place technology and security policies which are designed to protect the personal information we hold about you.

We limit the access of your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. 

We also follow the security procedures that applicable privacy laws require. These cover storing, using and releasing any information you have provided, as well as measures designed to prevent unauthorised access or use.

When you place an order or access your account information, we use a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption which encrypts your information before it is sent to us to protect it from unauthorised use.

We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

DATA RETENTION

We will not keep your personal information for longer than is necessary, for the purposes for which it was collected and is processed and for the purposes of satisfying our legal, accounting or regulatory reporting requirements. We may retain personal information for longer than this in certain circumstances, for example in the event of an ongoing dispute. We may retain your personal information for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you. 

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.
