Where available, customers may also use our Data Sharing Opt-Out page to exercise applicable choices relating to certain data-sharing or personalised-advertising activities.

transferring information to a country covered by applicable UK adequacy regulations;

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.
The appropriate retention period will depend on factors including:

whether you have an active customer account;
-
the status of an order;
-
whether a return, refund or dispute is ongoing;
-
tax and accounting requirements;
-
fraud-prevention requirements;
-
legal or regulatory requirements; and
-
whether information is needed to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.
When information is no longer required, we will delete, anonymise or otherwise securely dispose of it where appropriate and subject to applicable legal obligations.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against:

loss;

unauthorised access;

misuse;

alteration; and
