HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We know and understand how much data security matters to all our customers. We will treat your data with the utmost care and take all appropriate steps to protect it. We secure access to all transactional areas of our websites and apps using ‘https’ technology. Access to your personal data is password-protected, and sensitive data (such as payment card information) is secured by SSL encryption. We regularly monitor our system for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and we carry out penetration testing to identify ways to further strengthen security.



HOW LONG WILL WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Whenever we collect or process your personal data, we’ll only keep it for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. At the end of that retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised, for example by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.

Some examples of customer data retention periods:

Orders
When you place an order, we’ll keep the personal data you give us for six years so we can comply with our legal and contractual obligations.


WHO DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA WITH?

We would share your personal data with trusted third parties such as delivery couriers, for fraud management, to handle complaints, to help us personalise our offers to you and so on.

Here is our policy we apply to those third party organisations to ensure your data is kept safe and to protect your privacy:

  • We only provide information required to perform their specific services. They may only use your data for the exact purposes we specify in our contract with them.
  • We work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected at all times.
  • If we stop using their services, any of your data held by them at that time will either be deleted or rendered anonymous. 

Here is a list of examples of the kind of third parties we work with:

IT companies who support our website and other business systems.

Operational companies such as our delivery couriers

For fraud management, we may share information about fraudulent or potentially fraudulent activity in our premises or systems. This may include sharing data about individuals with law enforcement bodies

We may also be required to disclose your personal data to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, upon a valid request to do so. These requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis and take the privacy of our customers into consideration.

We may from time to time either expand, reduce or sell Artistry Limited and/or idaretobe.com and this may involve the transfer of divisions or the whole business to new owners. If this happens, your personal data will, where relevant, be transferred to the new owner or controlling party, under the terms of this Privacy Notice.

Protecting your data outside the EEA
The EEA includes all EU Member countries as well as Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. We may transfer personal data that we collect from you to third-party data processors in countries that are outside the EEA. This might be required in order to fulfil your order and delivery, process your payment details or provide support services. If we do this, we have procedures in place to ensure your data receives the same protection as if it were being processed inside the EEA. Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws and we will treat the information under the guiding principles of this Privacy Notice.
