Who Do We Share Your Personal Data With?

We only share your personal data with trusted service providers (e.g. delivery couriers) and data processors that are GDPR compliant.  We provide only the information they need to perform their specific services.  They may only use your data for the exact purposes we specify in our contract with them.

With your consent, we may pass that data to a third party for their direct marketing purposes.

We may also be required to disclose your personal data to the police or other enforcement, regulatory or Government body, in your country of origin or elsewhere, upon a valid request to do so. These requests are assessed on a case-by-case basis and take the privacy of our customers into consideration.
