Privacy policy
​
Our Privacy Policy explains in detail the types of personal data we collect about you when you interact with us, and how and why we use that data. Our intention is to give you the very best experience as a visitor to our site or as a customer of ours, and to allow the smooth running of our internal business processes. If you have any questions on our privacy policy or how we deal with your personal data, you’re welcome to contact us at misschrissykiss@gail.com
​
Legal Bases
The legal bases we rely on include consent (for example, the consent you give to wishing to receive our marketing news and offers), our contractual obligations (for example the delivery details we pass to our couriers to ensure your parcels get to their destination), and legitimate interest (that data that allows us to operate our business effectively and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom, or interests).
​
When do we collect your personal data?
​
Our company is hosted on the Wix.com platform. Wix.com provides us with the online platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you. Your data may be stored through Wix.com’s data storage, databases and the general Wix.com applications. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall.
All direct payment gateways offered by Wix.com and used by our company adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.
​
As laid out in the legal bases above, we only collect your personal data either to improve your experience as a customer of ours, if you have opted to receive details of latest offers and exclusives, or to allow the smooth running of our business operation (our legitimate interest). The data we store therefore is transactional in nature: the items you have bought, the dates of your orders, plus things like billing and delivery details to ensure the deliverability of your parcels. It is important to note we do not store any payment details, and the data we do store is stored securely. We will collect data on you when
-
When you visit our website
-
When you make a purchase from us
-
When you review one of our products or your recent orders
We retain customer data for the duration of the customer lifetime, so we can remain in contact with you, and to understand your buying behaviour to ensure our communications are as relevant as possible. We also give you news on new product releases, offers, and service messages, in line with your marketing preferences. If you request that we remove all data we hold on you, our customer service team will help with doing that as quickly and fully as practicably possible, and within one month.

To send you communications required by law or necessary to inform you about changes to the services we provide. This would include legally required information related to your orders. Service messages won’t contain promotional content and therefore would not be subject to the legitimate interest or consent legal bases, compared to our marketing emails. Using data for these purposes ensures we comply with our legal obligations to you.
​
How do we share your personal data?
We will sometimes share personal data with trusted third parties for the purposes of performing their specific services, as outlined in our contracts or agreements with them. These parties (known as ‘data processors’) have obligations to you to ensure your data is respected and only used for the purposes they’ve been contracted to use it.
Examples of these companies would include IT companies that support our website and other business systems, warehouses, delivery couriers, direct marketing companies, and advertisers like Google or Facebook.
What are your rights?
You have the right to request:​
-
The correction of your personal data when incorrect, out of date or incomplete.
-
That we stop using your personal data for direct marketing (either through specific channels, or all channels).
-
That we stop any legitimate interest or consent-based processing of your personal data where you ‘opt out’ or withdraw your consent
-
In cases where we are processing your personal data based on 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.
-
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.
