Padstow Gallery Ltd respects your right to privacy and is committed to protecting and safeguarding your personal data. As part of this commitment, we have updated our privacy policy to meet the high standards of the European data protection law, known as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). By continuing to use our site, you agree to these updated terms. This privacy policy may change from time to time so please check back here regularly.

What information do we collect from you?

The information you give us may include your name and contact details, including address, telephone number, and email address, as well as your payment information. This occurs when you place an order on our online shop; email us your information in regard to an order; create an online account; subscribe to our newsletter; and/or participate in a reader’s survey or competition.

Information that is provided by you will only be used for the purpose for which it is provided, unless you are informed otherwise at the time of giving the information.

How do we use your information?

We may use your information to provide goods and services that you have requested, and to communicate with you about those goods and services; to operate our site; to comply with applicable law; and as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Padstow Gallery Ltd may also contact you about your registration details, to manage any account or subscription you have with us, or to provide customer service, even if you have opted-out of, or declined to consent to receiving promotional emails. We may also contact you if we consider that revisions to this privacy policy are sufficiently important to notify you about them.

How do we share your information?

We may disclose your personal information to partners of Padstow Gallery Ltd who supply services to you on behalf of Padstow Gallery Ltd, such as Shopify and Omnisend, and who need to process personal information in the provision of such services. When you request goods and services from us, you are consenting to the disclosure of your personal information to our partners who may provide such goods and services under contract and guarantee to our satisfaction that they have sufficiently robust processes in place to ensure the security of your personal information whilst it is in their care.

We may disclose your personal information to third parties:

We may disclose depersonalised data (such as aggregated statistics) about the users of our website in order to describe our sales, customers, traffic patterns, and other site information to prospective partners, advertisers, investors, and other reputable third parties and for other lawful purposes; but these statistics will include no personally identifying information.

Under certain circumstances we may occasionally be required by law, court order, or governmental authority to disclose certain types of personal information and we reserve the right to comply with any such legally binding request.

Other than this, Padstow Gallery Ltd will not disclose any of your personal information to any other third parties without your consent.

How long will we keep your information?

We will hold your information on our system only for as long as is necessary – such as fulfilling a request for goods and services. After that time frame, your information will be securely deleted, or in some cases, anonymised.

How is your information stored and kept secure?

The website and our server have appropriate technical measures in place to protect against unauthorised or unlawful use of your personal information, as well as the accidental loss, destruction, or damage of your information while under our control. However, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and 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.
