Privacy Notes
Gifttreasures.co.uk (part of Ivybridge Limited) is committed to protecting your privacy and maintaining the security of any personal information received from you. We strictly adhere to the requirements of the data protection legislation in the UK.
The purpose of this statement is to explain to you what personal information we collect and how we may use it.
- 1. When you order, we need to know your name, address, email address, telephone number and card details. This allows us to process and fulfil your order and contact you with any questions. You have the option to withhold personal information that is not required for the order process. Where we use the services of other companies and individuals to perform specific functions on our behalf, these organisations may have access to the information solely for the function they are performing. Examples include contacting customers and liaising class dates, fulfilling orders, delivering packages, analysing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing customer services. These organisations will not have permission to use the data for any other purpose and are required to process it in accordance with the UK's Data Protection legislation.
- 2. We use your personal information to process your order. We will only contact you for marketing purposes with your consent.
- 3. We do not sell, rent or exchange your personal information with any third party for commercial reasons, beyond the essential requirement for credit/debit card validation during purchase.
- 4. We follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access in accordance with the UK data protection legislation.
- 5. We do not collect sensitive information about you except when you specifically knowingly provide it. In order to maintain the accuracy of our database, you can check, update or remove your personal details by emailing us at info@gifttreasures.co.uk
- 6. We use a technology called "cookies" as part of a normal business procedure to track patterns of behaviour of visitors to our site. A cookie is an element of data that our Website sends to your browser which is then stored on your system. You can set your browser to prevent this happening. Any information collected in this way can be used to identify you unless you change your browser settings.

Your e-mail address will not be sold to a third party if you sign up for one of our Newsletters or Discussion Lists on our website, you will receive only the e-mail Newsletter or Discussion List you have requested. You may receive on occasion an offer to sign up for a Newsletter or Discussion List, but you will not receive additional Newsletters or Discussion List mailings unless you specifically request them.

We log this information, but this information is never linked to any personally identifying information. It is used to audit the number of visitors coming to our website.
