   Marketing

   We strive to provide you with choices regarding certain personal data uses, particularly around marketing and advertising.

   Promotional offers from us

   We may use your Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data to form a view on what we think you may want or need, or what may be of interest to you. This is how we decide which products and offers may be relevant for you (we call this marketing). You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or purchased goods from us and, in each case, you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.

   Opting out

   You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages by contacting us at any time. Where you opt out of receiving these marketing messages, this will not apply to personal data provided to us as a result of a product purchase, warranty registration, product experience or other transactions.

   Cookies

   In this Privacy Policy, we use the expression 'cookie' to refer to cookies and similar technologies we use to store information (such as web beacons). A cookie is a simple text file that is stored on your computer or mobile (or other) device by a website's server, and only that server will be able to retrieve or read the contents of that cookie. Each cookie is unique to your web browser. It will contain some anonymous information, such as a unique identifier and the website name and some digits and characters.

   Almost all websites and applications you visit, including our websites, will use cookies in order to improve your user experience by enabling that website and/or application to 'remember' you, either for the duration of your visit (using a 'session cookie') or for repeat visits (using a 'persistent cookie').

   Cookies are used to improve your use of a website or application, for example through letting you navigate between pages efficiently and storing your preferences. Cookies make the interaction between you and the website faster and easier. If a website or application doesn't use cookies, it will think you are a new visitor every time you move to a new page on the website. Cookies can also be used to enable targeted advertising and analyzing your browsing of a website.

   You can learn more about cookies generally and how to disable them on your browser here.

   You can learn more about what advertising cookies exist on your device and you can disable them directly by clicking here.

   Change of purpose

   We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If you wish to get an explanation as to how the processing for the new purpose is compatible with the original purpose, please contact us. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so. Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

5. Disclosures of your personal data

   We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in the table in paragraph 4 above. Internal third parties such as our employees or officers and legal entities within Wild Thang Limited. External third parties including specialist IT support, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of this site, our applications and any contract we enter into with them or you including Communigator, Qualtrics, delivery companies to deliver your order (such as DHL, Royal Mail, DPD), World Pay, Stripe, Paypal Card Payment Solutions.

   We also disclose your personal data to TSG to enable TSG to provide Customer Support.

   Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this Privacy Policy. We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

6. International transfers

   We share your personal data with Wild Thang Limited and between countries in which we operate as per Wild Thang Limited Data Protection Policy. Many countries to which we may transfer your personal data outside of the EEA do not have an adequate level of protection for personal data approved by the European Commission. However, where we use certain service providers (as per paragraph 5), we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. For further details, see European Commission: Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of personal data to third countries.

7. Data security

   We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

8. Data retention

   How long will you use my personal data for? We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements. If you have registered to receive communications from us as part of our mailing list, then we will keep your personal data for up to 6 years, at which time we will seek to obtain consent from you to continue storing your data and contacting you.

9. Your legal rights

   Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data. These same rights apply in respect of Wild Thang Limited.

   Marketing

   We will inform you (before collecting your data) if we intend to use your data for marketing purposes.

   Correction of information

   If you notify us that the personal data we hold is incomplete or inaccurate we will correct or complete the information as soon as possible.

   Deletion of information

   You have the right to request that your personal data be deleted; including if we no longer need it for the purpose we collected it, or, where our legal basis for processing is that you have given consent, you withdraw your consent.

   Following such a request we will erase your personal data without undue delay unless continued retention is necessary and permitted by law. If we shared your data with a third party, we will take reasonable steps to inform them about processing your erasure request.

   Object to processing

   You have the right to object to us processing your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.

   Restriction on processing

   You have the right to request that we suspend processing your personal data, but hold it for you, in the event the personal data we hold is inaccurate, the processing is unlawful or we no longer need the personal data. Once the processing is restricted, we will only continue to process your personal data if you consent or we have another legal basis for doing so.

   Access to information

   You have the right to access information held about you and any access request will usually be free of charge. We will endeavour to provide information in a format requested, but we may charge you a reasonable fee for additional (duplicate) copies.

   Data Portability

   You have the right to receive a copy of your personal data which you gave to us. The copy will be provided in a commonly used and machine-readable format. You can also have it transmitted directly from us to another data controller, where reasonably technically possible. If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us.

   No fee usually required

   You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

   Withdraw consent at any time

   You may withdraw your consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.

   What we may need from you

   We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

   Time limit to respond

   We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
