Please note that when browsing our site, the provision of any personal information is not required unless and until you choose to make an account with us, make a purchase, or sign up for one of our email newsletters or other services as described below. Personal information (information that is attributable to a specific individual) that we hold on all account holders and customers who have bought from us previously includes: Customer Registration In order to purchase products and related services through our site, we require you to create an account. This asks you to provide us with essential personal information such as your title, name and your email address. Making a Purchase All payments made on the website sometimes require us to take additional details from you including a delivery name and address, and a corresponding billing address. In order to process the payment for your product(s) and delivery we share your name, & address details with our payment processing partner Paypal. Arranging Delivery If you purchase product(s), the delivery name and address and sometimes your contact number will be provided to a third party courier company for the sole purpose of delivering the specific purchased product(s). Your address may also be visible on the shipping labels to employees of the producer from which you have ordered the products. The marketplace model means that items are shipped from the producer’s address, often where the drinks are originally made. We have contracted assurances that our partners (producers and couriers) agree to not use this information for any other purpose, either in connection with such shipment(s) or separately from such shipment(s). The partners also agree not to separately contact you at any time for any reason. Our current courier partners include ParcelForce, UKMail, CitySprint and UPS. We may use other reputable courier businesses to get your delivery to you in the fastest and most efficient way and you consent to your Delivery Name, Address and Phone Number being shared with our chosen courier party. Sending Info over Email We ask customers to maintain their personal information in their account online, however should the need arise to send us information over email so that we can amend an order or verify your age manually, you consent to us also storing this information in our email servers. Please do not send us personal information over email except where required or requested. Automatic Logging of Session Data Generic information about your computer’s connection to the Internet, called “session data”, will automatically be logged. This information is anonymous and can not be used to track your personal information. Session data consists of things such as IP address, operating system and type of browser software being used and the activities conducted by the user while on our site. An IP address is a number that enables computers attached to the Internet, such as our web servers, to know where to send data back to the user, such as the pages of the site the user wishes to view. We collect session data because it helps us administer our website, track correlative information and to collate statistics in relation to visitor traffic. We may use your IP address to help us diagnose problems with our server. Rest assured that this information can not be linked to you personally.
