We may share relevant personal information with trusted service providers where reasonably necessary to operate our business and provide our services to you.
For example, your name, contact details and delivery address may need to be shared with a courier or delivery provider in order to deliver your order.
We may also disclose information where required or permitted by law, including where necessary to protect our legal rights, prevent fraud or comply with a lawful request from an appropriate authority.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to help the website function correctly, remember preferences, understand website usage and improve your shopping experience.
Third-party services used on our website may also use cookies or similar technologies for analytics, security or advertising purposes.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
