In line with data protection laws we may process your personal data for marketing purposes, which can involve legitimate interest or consent. The Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018) allows us to use the information you have provided when placing an order to send marketing communications to provide you with an enhanced customer experience. Where you have opted in to receive marketing communications from us, we will process your personal data to provide you with marketing communications in line with the preferences you have provided.

While customer service emails are necessary to help you benefit from our services, you may choose not to receive marketing communications when you set up your Account.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS AND HOW CAN YOU CONTROL THE DATA WE HOLD ON YOU?

You can change your marketing preferences at any time by updating your account online, following the unsubscribe link in our emails, or by emailing customerservices@camomile.uk.com

The Right to Object: In some instances, you may have the right to ask us to stop processing your data. This will be the case where we process your data because we have a legitimate interest in doing so (such as where we contact you to follow up on a complaint you made). This right does not always apply but you are always able to raise an objection to our processing and we will do our best to comply, where we are legally able to.

The Right to Erasure (The right to be forgotten):

In a similar way to how you can object to our processing your data, you have the right in some instances to have us destroy all the data we hold on you.
We maintain and follow a retention policy and your data will not be held for longer than the defined retention period without good reason and without consulting our internal data privacy experts.

KEEPING YOUR INFORMATION SAFE

When you give us personal information, we take steps to ensure that it’s treated securely. Any sensitive information (such as bank, credit or debit card details) will always be entered on a secured page and transferred using SSL, a cryptographic protocol designed to provide communication security over the Internet.

When you are on a secure page, a lock icon will appear on the web browser.

Non-sensitive details (your email address etc.) are transmitted normally over the Internet, and this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

Where we have given (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.

We will hold your data for no longer than we need it for, or if you have advised you wish us to delete it (and we have no legal requirement to keep it), we will delete it per our retention policy. You can request this from us by emailing customerservices@camomile.uk.com
