The ICO requires businesses to explain why they process personal information, their lawful basis, how long they retain it and who it may be shared with.
5. Our Lawful Bases for Processing
Under UK data-protection law, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal information.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:
Contract — where processing is necessary to fulfil an order, provide a quotation, manufacture a bespoke product or otherwise perform a contract with you.
Legal obligation — where we need to keep or use information to comply with tax, accounting, consumer-protection or other legal requirements.
Legitimate interests — where necessary for the reasonable operation and protection of our business, for example responding to enquiries, maintaining website security, preventing fraud and improving our services, provided your rights and interests do not override those interests.
Consent — where you have actively agreed to a particular use of your information, for example certain non-essential cookies or marketing communications where consent is required.
6. Payment Information
Payments made through our website may be processed by third-party payment providers.
We do not normally receive or store your complete payment-card details. Payment providers may process your information in accordance with their own privacy policies and security requirements.
We may retain information confirming that a payment was made, such as:
- transaction reference;
- amount;
- date;
- payment status.
7. Delivery Companies
To deliver your order, we may provide necessary information to delivery companies such as:
- your name;
- delivery address;
- telephone number;
- email address where required for delivery notifications.
We currently use delivery providers including EVRI, and may use Royal Mail or another suitable carrier depending on the order.
Only information reasonably necessary to complete the delivery is shared.
8. Website Provider and Other Service Providers
Our website is hosted and operated using Webnode.
We may also use third-party providers for services including:
- website hosting;
- online payments;
- email;
- accounting;
- analytics;
- advertising;
- delivery and tracking;
- IT and website security.
These providers may process personal information on our behalf or, in some circumstances, as separate data controllers.
We only share information where reasonably necessary for the service being provided or where required by law.
9. Google Analytics and Advertising
Our website may use Google services, including analytics and advertising technologies, to help us understand how visitors use the website and to measure the effectiveness of advertising.
Depending on your cookie choices, these technologies may collect information such as:
- pages visited;
- approximate location;
- device and browser information;
- traffic source;
- interactions with the website;
- IP address or similar technical identifiers.
Where consent is legally required for non-essential analytics or advertising cookies, these technologies should only be activated after you have provided the necessary consent.
10. Cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies.
Some cookies are strictly necessary for the website to work properly, for example to support security, shopping-cart functionality or other essential features.
Other cookies may be used for:
- analytics;
- measuring website performance;
- remembering preferences;
- advertising and conversion measurement.
Where required by law, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.
You can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie controls available on our website.
The ICO states that website users must be informed about cookies and that consent is generally required for cookies that are not strictly necessary.
11. Marketing Communications
We will not send you marketing emails merely because you have purchased from us unless we have a lawful basis to do so.
Where marketing consent is required, we will ask for it.
If you receive marketing communications from us, you can ask us to stop at any time by:
- using any unsubscribe option provided; or
- contacting us at 3rwdesign@gmail.com.
We may still contact you where necessary about an existing order, payment, delivery, return or customer-service matter.
12. How Long We Keep Your Information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and to meet our legal obligations.
For example:
Order and accounting records: normally retained for the period required under UK tax and accounting rules.
Customer correspondence: retained for as long as reasonably necessary to deal with orders, enquiries, disputes or after-sales matters.
Bespoke specifications and drawings: may be retained where reasonably necessary for production records, repeat orders or resolving questions about an order.
Cookie and analytics information: retained according to the settings and retention periods of the relevant service.
When personal information is no longer required, we will delete it or otherwise dispose of it securely where reasonably practicable.
13. International Transfers
Some companies providing website, analytics, email, payment or other services may process information outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards are used where required by UK data-protection law.
These may include transfers to countries recognised as providing an adequate level of protection or the use of approved contractual safeguards.
14. How We Protect Your Information
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against:
- unauthorised access;
- loss;
- misuse;
- alteration;
- disclosure;
- destruction.
However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
15. Your Data-Protection Rights
Depending on the circumstances, UK data-protection law may give you rights including the right to:
- ask what personal information we hold about you;
- request a copy of your personal information;
- ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
- ask us to delete your information in certain circumstances;
- ask us to restrict how we use your information;
