How We Use Personal Information
Processing Purchases
Customer information may be used to receive, verify, process, and fulfil orders placed through our website.
This includes confirming transaction details, arranging delivery, generating order records, and providing information about purchase status.
We may also use relevant purchase details to manage cancellations, returns, refunds, and replacement requests.
Customer Communication
We use contact information to communicate with customers about matters directly related to their orders and requested services.
Examples include purchase confirmations, shipment notifications, delivery updates, support replies, and resolution of product-related enquiries.
Where appropriate, we may contact customers to verify details necessary to complete a transaction or prevent an order-processing error.
Website Improvement
We may analyse website usage information to identify navigation problems, improve product presentation, evaluate website performance, and understand general shopping patterns.
This analysis helps us maintain a functional, accessible, and convenient e-commerce platform.
Where practical, information may be reviewed in an aggregated form that does not directly identify individual customers.
Fraud Prevention and Security
Personal information may be used when reasonably necessary to identify suspicious transactions, prevent unauthorised activity, investigate potential misuse, and protect the security of our website.
Such activities may include reviewing unusual order patterns, verifying transaction information, and cooperating with payment providers in the investigation of disputed activity.
Promotional Communication
Where customers have provided any required consent or where another valid basis applies, we may use contact information to provide promotional messages about products, store offers, or relevant updates.
Customers may opt out of promotional communications through the available unsubscribe mechanism or other designated preference controls.
Opting out of marketing communications does not prevent essential transaction messages relating to existing purchases.
Payment Information
Payment Processing
Our website may rely on external payment service providers to support customer transactions.
These providers may process payment information necessary to authorise payments, complete purchases, manage refunds, and identify potentially fraudulent transactions.
Payment providers operate under their own applicable privacy and security arrangements.
We encourage customers to review the policies associated with their selected payment method.
Transaction Records
We may retain payment-related transaction references, payment status, purchase amounts, and other information reasonably required for accounting, order verification, and customer support.
We do not require customers to disclose sensitive payment credentials through ordinary customer support messages.
Customers should never send complete card credentials or account passwords through unsecured communications.

These technologies can help remember selected items, maintain browsing sessions, support checkout functionality, and improve the consistency of the user experience.
Some cookies may be necessary for basic website operation.

Where enabled, analytics technologies may help us understand website traffic, page performance, and general visitor interactions.
Such information can assist in identifying technical problems, evaluating website improvements, and making product information easier to locate.
The technologies used may depend on our website platform and configured service providers.
Advertising Preferences
If advertising or promotional measurement technologies are enabled, they may help us evaluate marketing performance or display relevant promotional content.
Customers may have choices concerning optional cookies or marketing technologies through available website controls and browser settings.

Information may be disclosed when necessary to respond to valid legal processes, investigate fraud, protect legitimate rights, or fulfil binding obligations.
Any such disclosure should be limited to information relevant to the specific circumstances.
Business Changes
If the business undergoes restructuring, a sale, or another significant operational transition, relevant information may be transferred as part of that process, subject to appropriate confidentiality and privacy protections.
Information Security
Protection Measures
We recognise the importance of protecting customer information from unauthorised access, misuse, alteration, and loss.
Appropriate administrative, technical, and operational safeguards may be implemented according to the nature of the information and the systems used.
These measures may include access restrictions, secure transaction services, account authentication procedures, and monitoring of unusual activity.
Security Limitations
No online transmission method or information storage system can guarantee absolute security.
While we aim to apply reasonable safeguards, customers should also take precautions when accessing their accounts and using online payment services.
Customers should use strong passwords, avoid sharing account credentials, and notify our support team if they suspect unauthorised activity.
Information Retention
Retention Purposes
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy or to meet applicable obligations.
Retention periods may depend on the type of information, transaction history, ongoing service requests, operational requirements, and relevant recordkeeping needs.
Deletion and Anonymisation
When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymised, or otherwise handled according to the retention procedures applicable to our systems.
Some information may need to be retained for unresolved transactions, disputes, fraud prevention, or required business records.
Customer Privacy Choices
Access and Correction
Customers may contact us to request information about personal data associated with their account or purchases.
Where appropriate and reasonably verifiable, customers may request corrections to inaccurate or incomplete information.
We may need to verify the identity of a requester before making account-related changes.

Requests will be evaluated in light of relevant operational requirements, outstanding orders, transaction records, and other applicable obligations.
Some information may need to remain in limited records even after a deletion request is approved.

If we become aware that information has been collected inappropriately, we will review the circumstances and take reasonable corrective steps.
International Service Operations
Depending on the customer's location and the services used to operate our platform, personal information may be processed or stored in different regions.
Where such processing occurs, we aim to use appropriate arrangements for the relevant service and information involved.
Customers should understand that service providers may operate infrastructure outside their own region.
