  • You interact or correspond with us;
  • You use our Website or otherwise use our services;
  • You make a purchase from our online shop;
  • You apply to work for us;
  • You sign up to our mailing list.
Why we use your personal data

We use your personal data to:

  • Provide our services;
  • Process your orders;
  • Operate and manage our Website;
  • Contact you in relation to our services, provide customer service and handle questions;
  • Send you promotional materials (including our newsletter);
  • Process job applications, manage the recruitment process, evaluate candidates and communicate with applicants;
  • Deal with complaints, comply with our legal and regulatory obligations and prevent fraud; and
  • Otherwise pursue our legitimate business interests related to operating our Website and providing our services to you.
  • We do not envisage that any decisions will be taken about you using automated means, however, we will notify you if this position changes.
Our legal basis for processing your personal data

We will only process your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will process your personal data:

  • To perform a contract we have (or are about to) enter into with you;
  • To pursue our legitimate business interests (or those of a third party) and your fundamental rights do not override those interests. Our legitimate business interests may include our interests in providing our services to you, and carrying out our administrative and operational functions;
  • To comply with our legal and regulatory obligations;
  • To establish, exercise or defend any legal claims brought against us.
  • Occasionally we may also process your personal data where we have your consent (including when placing cookies on your device or before sending you marketing communications). Where we rely on your consent for processing your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
How we share your personal data

We may share your personal data between the Somesuch companies mentioned above. We may also share your personal data with third party companies, contractors, or service providers (including Shopify for our online shop and Campaign Monitor for our mailing list) when this is necessary to provide you with our services, or to respond to your enquiries or for any of the purposes described in this policy; our professional advisers and suppliers; other business entities should we plan to merge with or be acquired by that business entity, or if we undergo a re-organisation with that entity; and, law enforcement agencies, other governmental agencies or third parties if we are required by law to do or in order to protect our rights, property, or safety of our employees or others.

If we transfer your personal data outside of the UK/EU we will ensure that obligations are imposed on the recipients of that information to protect your information to the standard required in the UK/EU. This can be done in a number of different ways, for example: the country to which we send the personal data may have been assessed by the UK/EU as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data or the recipient may have signed a contract based on standard contractual clauses approved by the UK/EU authorities. In other circumstances, the law may permit us to otherwise transfer your personal data to countries outside the UK/EU.

Third-Party Links and Social Network Linked Accounts

Our Website may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, and applications. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share personal data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy policies. When you leave the Website we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

Marketing

You have the right to ask us to stop sending you marketing communications. You can do this by following the opt-out links on any marketing communications sent to you, or by emailing us with your request using the email address given above. We will action any opt out request from you as soon as we can.

How long will we keep your information?

We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data 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 data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or other requirements.

Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know.

Your rights

Under certain circumstances, if you reside in the UK or EU (or in a jurisdiction where similar legal requirements apply), you have rights in relation to your personal data. See below a description of those rights:

  • The right to request a copy of your personal data held by us;
  • The right to correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data held by us;
  • The right to request that we erase personal data we hold about you;
