WHY DO WE HAVE A POLICY
We are under a legal obligation to let you know what personal information we collect about you, what we use it for and on what basis. We always need a good reason and we also have to explain to you your rights in relation to that information. You have the right to know what information we hold about you and to have a copy of it, and you can ask us to change or sometimes delete it. This has been written in line with our obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation 2016 and the Data Protection Act 2018 as they apply in the UK. There may be local law variations requirements within and outside the EU which apply instead.
The reasons we collect information are set out in this privacy policy, but we are not telling you all this just because we have to. As a Greeting Card/gift provider, most of what we do – from connecting you to gifts, cards events, workshops and products to developing and promoting our services – involves using personal information. And we believe that it is very important for our customers to trust us with that information. We want you to be confident that we will keep it secure and use it both lawfully and ethically, respecting your privacy.
