Sometimes we may ask for your telephone number. This number may be given to our courier for delivery services. These details allow us to process your order and to let you know the status of your order.

If you choose to pay by credit/debit card, we will collect your credit/debit card details to process the transactions. Saved credit/debit card details will never be shared with third parties and will only be used to process your order, using our payment partner's systems. Additionally we may also obtain information as a result of authentication or identity checks.

We will at all times comply with privacy laws in respect of any of your personal information we collect.
