Who we are

We want you to feel comfortable using our website and trust us to deal with your information in a transparent, easy to understand way. So here's a few pointers to get you started.

* we don't sell, rent or trade your personal information to anyone else
* we only record information that's necessary to answer an enquiry - so your name, email address and any text associated with that enquiry
* we only record information that's necessary for you to make a purchase from our store; this information is passed to Ecwid which handles our online shop and PayPal which processes payments. Please check Ecwid's Privacy Policy and PayPal's Privacy Policy for more information.

Your name and email address
When you fill in the enquiry form on our website we store your name and email address and any message you send along with it. This is so we can reply to your enquiry. We do the same if you send us a message using any of the email links on the website. That information is stored in our email program on a password-protected computer that's only used by us. We keep it along with all our other emails but we don't use it for anything other than responding to your enquiry. In addition, your information is collected when you make a purchase from our online store by our partners Ecwid and Paypal (see Who we are).
