Using our online store
When using our website to order pickups from us, you will need to sign in to our website and provide us with certain personal details about yourself, such as your name, address, email and telephone number. We store this data in order to provide you with a fast and easy service, so that your details are saved if you wish to make further orders in the future and so that any queries with your order can be dealt with efficiently. We store this information on secure servers and do not share any of your personal data with anyone else for marketing or research purposes.
When you make a purchase with us, we use a third party payment processor, Stripe, to handle all of our credit and debit card transactions. As you progress through our checkout process, you will be forwarded to the Stripe secure payment portal to enter your card details. Those card details are handled solely by Stripe and they do not share your card details with us, only basic information about the authorisation status of your purchase. When you are forwarded to Stripe, we do need to share some basic details with them regarding your purchase, such as your name and billing address and the total amount of your order. We do not share any information with them that is not completely necessary to complete your order.
