We collect personal information necessary to provide our products and services. This may include your name, email address, phone number, billing and shipping details, and payment information. If you create an account, we also collect your login credentials. Additionally, when you visit our website, we may automatically collect information such as your IP address, device type, browser details, and interactions with our website through cookies and analytics tools.
We may obtain personal information from third parties, including payment processors, logistics providers, and marketing partners, to enhance our services and ensure the accuracy of transactions. Information may also be collected through tracking technologies such as cookies, pixels, and web beacons to improve user experience and analyse website performance.
USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal information is used for processing and fulfilling orders, providing customer support, sending order confirmations, shipping updates, and marketing communications where consent has been given. It is also used to improve website functionality, products, and customer experience, to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions, and to comply with legal and regulatory obligations. Additionally, personal information may be used to enhance security measures, conduct advertising campaigns, and ensure compliance with applicable data protection laws.
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Personal information is not sold or rented to third parties. However, we may share information with trusted service providers, including payment processors, shipping and logistics providers, IT service providers, and marketing and advertising partners who assist in delivering services and optimising business operations. Disclosure may also be made to legal authorities if required by law, or to prevent fraudulent activities. In cases of business restructuring, mergers, or acquisitions, personal data may be transferred as part of corporate transactions.
DATA SECURITY AND RETENTION
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, or disclosure. Security measures include secure encryption of payment details, encrypted website connections, and restricted access to personal data. Despite these efforts, no online platform can guarantee absolute security, and users are encouraged to take precautions such as using strong passwords and keeping login details confidential. Personal information is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil obligations, comply with legal requirements, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Exclusive promotions, discounts, or brand updates
We may use website cookies or plugins to determine when a shopping cart has been abandoned. This information helps us decide when to send cart reminder messages via SMS.
