From time to time our website uses cookies.

What information do we collect?

We may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal information:

  • information about your computer and about your visits to and use of this website (including your IP address, geographical location, browser type and version, operating system, referral source, length of visit, page views, and website navigation);
  • information relating to any transactions carried out between you and us on or in relation to this website, including information relating to any purchases you make of our goods or services;
  • information that you provide to us for the purpose of registering with us;

  • cookies

A cookie consists of a piece of text sent by a web server to a web browser, and stored by the browser. The information is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser.

We may use cookies to support the idea of a “session”. This allows us to recognise you from one page request to another, for example to determine your shopping basket contents. This is an extremely common use of cookies. No personal information is retained in the cookie. Sites that require you to login and which provide you with an account, almost always need to use cookies in this way. In place of or in addition to cookies, we may use software or other utilities that are similar to cookies and/or behave or function in the same way as cookies (such as ‘web tokens’). The terms relating to cookies as specified herein will apply to such software or utilities.

Session cookies will ordinarily be deleted from your computer when you close your browser (note they may survive the closure of a browser tab) and deletion of cookies is to some extent controlled by browser settings. The cookie that we use when you ask us to remember your login will remain stored on your computer until it is deleted by you.

We use Google Analytics to analyse the use of this website and to collect information about users' demographic, browsing habits and interests in order to improve and tailor our website. Google Analytics generates statistical and other information about website use by means of cookies, which are stored on users' computers. The information generated relating to our website is used to create reports about the use of the website. Google will store this information. Google's privacy policy is available at:http://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html.

All our website financial transactions are handled through our payment service providers, (………………….) We will share information with a payment service provider only to the extent necessary for the purposes of processing payments you make via our website and dealing with queries relating to such payments.

From time to time we will use other trusted third party services to enable the Service which may use cookies for other reasons; these may include, but are not restricted to, YouTube (our online video service provider), Twitter (social media service provider) and Facebook (social media service provider). We are not responsible for any content or cookies served by these third parties. If you wish to understand how these third party services treat your personal data, you should refer to the individual Privacy Policy on their website.

Most browsers allow you to reject all cookies, whilst some browsers allow you to reject just third party cookies. For example, in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookies by clicking “Tools”, “Internet Options”, “Privacy”, and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding selector. Blocking all cookies will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites, and will mean that you cannot take advantage of some of our website’s features.
