When you visit our website, we collect information about your visit that does not identify you personally (non-personal data). We track information such as the domain from which you are visiting and the user’s browser type. We also collect specific information regarding your session on our website. This includes items such as the date and time of the visit and the pages viewed.

We collect personal data that does identify you when you contact us via an enquiry or contact form, register an account with us, sign up to a mailing list or place an order for products or services. We also collect information when you voluntarily complete customer surveys, provide feedback and participate in competitions. If you do not perform any of these processes, you will visit our site anonymously.

We do not collect any sensitive personal data (as defined by the ICO) and we do not intentionally collect information from children under the age of 13.

Do you store credit card details?

How will we use the information about you?
We use the personal data we collect about you to process your enquiry, process your order and manage your account. This may include contacting you via post, email, phone or SMS in relation to your enquiry, order or account, depending on the contact methods you have given us consent to use.

If you have consented, we may use your personal data to contact you with information (e.g. via newsletter) or about other products and services we think may be of interest to you.

From time to time, we may contact you asking you to check the personal data we hold and to inform us if any modification is required, or indeed, if you wish any personal data to be deleted.

Do we disclose any information to outside parties?
We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personal data. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect our or others’ rights, property, or safety. However, non-personal visitor data may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

We will not share your information for marketing purposes with companies outside Wye Valley Flowers.

How do we protect your information?
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal data when you place an enquiry, order or enter, submit, or access your personal data. These are industry standard methods and mechanisms such as firewalls, intrusion monitoring, and passwords to protect electronic information. Multiple physical security methods such as locking devices and 24-hour premise monitoring are also employed. Finally, access to personal data is limited to a small number of Wye Valley Flowers staff and strictly on a need-to-know basis.

All supplied personal data is transferred via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology. This website is hosted in an EU data centre as is any personal data that is collected and stored.

We do not store payment method data, such as credit/debit card details. Such payment method details are handled/encrypted into the Payment Gateway provider’s databases only to be accessible by those authorised with special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential.

Access to your information and correction
You have the right to request a copy of the information that we hold about you. If you would like a copy of some or all your personal data, please email or write to us at the address at the end of this page. We may make a small charge for this service.
