This Privacy Notice explains in detail the types of personal data we may collect about you when you interact with us. It also explains how we’ll store and handle that data, and keep it safe.
We know that there’s a lot of information here, but we want you to be fully informed about your rights, and how Howe Green Ltd uses your data.
We hope the following sections will answer any questions you have but if not, please do get in touch with us.
It’s likely that we’ll need to update this Privacy Notice from time to time. We’ll notify you of any significant changes, but you’re welcome to come back and check it whenever you wish.
The law on data protection sets out a number of different reasons for which a company may collect and process your personal data, including:
In specific situations, we can collect and process your data with your consent.
For example, when you tick a box to receive email newsletters.
When collecting your personal data, we’ll always make clear to you what categories of products you are opting in to receive information about and how you want to be contacted.
In certain circumstances, we need your personal data to comply with our contractual obligations.
For example, if you order an item from us, we’ll collect your address details to deliver your purchase, and pass them to our courier.
If you have a credit account with us and an established price list, we may also need to use your contact details to alert you of any changes to your agreed contractual pricing.
If the law requires us to, we may need to collect and process your data.
For example, we can pass on details of people involved in fraud or other criminal activity affecting the company to law enforcement.
In specific situations, we require your data to pursue our legitimate interests in a way which might reasonably be expected as part of running our business and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests.
For example, we will use your purchase history to send you or make available personalised offers.
We will also use your address details to send you direct marketing information by post or email, telling you about products and services that we think might interest you.
When you visit any of our websites, and use your account to buy products and services
It is important to Bilco that we give you the best possible customer experience and only contact you about relevant products or services we feel you may be interested in. We use data collected to offer you promotions, products and services that are most likely to interest you.
The data privacy law allows this as part of our legitimate interest in understanding our customers and providing the highest levels of service.
You can choose to change your preferences in how we contact you and what information we hold – see more in the ‘What are my rights?’ section below.
Remember, it is important to consider whether you truly want to opt out completely as doing so may mean we cannot provide all of the services or information you have asked for. Changing preferences is often a better way to manage contact, rather than opting out altogether. For example, if you’ve asked us to let you know when an item comes back into stock, we can’t do that if you’ve withdrawn your general consent to hear from us.
Here’s how we’ll use your personal data and why:
We know how much data security matters to all our customers. With this in mind, we will treat your data with the utmost care and take all appropriate steps to protect it.
We secure access to all transactional areas of our websites.
We regularly monitor our system for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and we carry out penetration testing to identify ways to further strengthen security.
Suppliers who receive your data from us for processing purposes, such as delivery companies, are also GDPR reviewed periodically to ensure their data is maintained appropriately under the same, strict access and storage conditions.
We will keep personal data in accordance with our data retention practices. These data retention practices apply appropriate retention periods for each category of personal information. In setting retention periods we take account of the purposes for which the personal information was collected, the legal and regulatory obligations on us to retain information, limitation periods for legal action and our business purposes.
At the end of that retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised, for example by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning.
We sometimes share your personal data with trusted third parties.
For example, delivery couriers, engineers visiting your home, for fraud management, or to handle complaints.
Here’s the policy we apply to those organisations to keep your data safe and protect your privacy:
Examples of the kind of third parties we work with are:
When transacting through our websites, by email or by telephone, your data is transacted and stored in the EU according to legislation. Any external suppliers are fully compliant with GDPR and internal systems are fully secure and protected.
Any transfer of your personal data will follow applicable laws and we will treat the information under the guiding principles of this Privacy Notice.
An overview of your different rights
You have the right to request:
You have the right to request a copy of any information about you we hold at any time, and also to have that information corrected if it is inaccurate. To ask for your information, please contact [email protected]
If we choose not to action your request we will explain to you the reasons for our refusal.
Whenever you have given us your consent to use your personal data, you have the right to change your mind at any time and withdraw that consent.
In cases where we are processing your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interest, you can ask us to stop for reasons connected to your individual situation. We must then do so unless we believe we have a legitimate overriding reason to continue processing your personal data.
Direct marketing
You have the right to stop the use of your personal data for direct marketing activity through all channels, or selected channels. We must always comply with your request.
To protect the confidentiality of your information, we will ask you to verify your identity before proceeding with any request you make under this Privacy Notice. If you have authorised a third party to submit a request on your behalf, we will ask them to prove they have your permission to act.
There are several ways you can stop direct marketing communications from us:
Please note that you may continue to receive communications for a short period after changing your preferences while our systems are fully updated.
We hope this Privacy Notice has been helpful in setting out the way we handle your personal data and your rights to control it.
If you have any questions that haven’t been covered, please contact us at [email protected] and we will be pleased to help you:
