2. What Personal Data do we collect?
2.1 When you register with us or place an order, we collect
and store basic information such as your name, contact and order
details, username and password, and payment information including
credit card number. You may provide us with additional information
on the site (e.g. if you store a list of favourites or complete
a questionnaire or contest entry form) or if you communicate
with us by phone / email or otherwise.
2.2 We may receive and store certain information automatically
when you interact with us. Examples include the internet protocol
(IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet,
login, e-mail address, password, computer and connection information

or searched for, parts of our site you visited and any phone
number used to contact us.
2.3 Like many websites we use cookies. A cookie is a small amount
of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored
on your computer’s hard drive. A session cookie enables
us to identify you (only) throughout a session on our site,
so that you can use features such as the basket and are able
to place orders. A session cookie is essential to our service.
We may also use a cookie so that our web server will recognize
your browser when you visit our site again. This will enable
us to provide features such as personalized greetings and storage
of items in your shopping basket between visits. The Help menu
bar of most browsers tells you how to modify your browser to
accept or reject all cookies or be notified when a cookie is
set. However, cookies allow you to take full advantage of the
most useful features of our site and we recommend that you leave
them turned on. In any case you cannot use our service if you
reject session cookies.
2.4 We may obtain information about you from other sources including
credit and/or credit card information from credit bureaus.

display content such as favourites, to recommend goods and services
that might be of interest to you and to enable targeted promotions
when you visit our site. We may also use this information to
improve our store and platform, prevent or detect fraud or abuses
of our site and to enable third parties to carry out technical,
logistical or other functions on our behalf.
