·         Keep you up-to-date with our news, let you know about our latest products and offers, send you our new catalogues and email you our newsletters

However, don’t forget, this only happens if you want it to! And you can change your mind at any time, just update your settings in Your Account when you login or, if you prefer, just contact us to let us know.

When you ask us to “Email A Friend”:

·         You must have the consent of the person whose details you are providing to us, as when you submit their details, you are confirming that you have that person's consent (a) to tell us their name and email address and (b) for us to our contact them.

Sharing your information (or not, as the case may be)!

·         We may pass your information on to others solely to enable us to provide you with the goods or services you have ordered or requested from us or otherwise in connection with our relationship with you.   For example, we will need to let the couriers know where to deliver your parcel. Please note that details may be passed outside the EEA for certain ordering purposes, but don’t worry, we will ensure that your details are kept as securely as we keep them ourselves.

·         To maintain the high levels of customer service that you expect from us, from time to time we do conduct customer research to hear your views directly on the service that you have received from us.

·         We may pass your information to third parties where we are required to do so by law or other regulation, or where our business is bought (substantially or wholly) by a third party.

·         We will not pass your details to other companies or organisations for their own marketing purposes unless you have agreed to let us.
