What is personal data?

Personal data is defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU Regulation 2016/679) (the “GDPR”) as any information relating to an identifiable person who can be directly or indirectly identified in particular by reference to an identifier.

Personal data is, in simpler terms, any information about you that enables you to be identified. Personal data covers obvious information such as your name and contact details, but it also covers less obvious information such as identification numbers, electronic location data, and other online identifiers.

Why do you need my personal data?

If you place an order with us, we will need your name and address, along with your credit or debit card number and the billing and delivery addresses. This will allow us to fulfil your order. We will also require your email address and phone number so we can send you updates about your order and contact you in the event of any queries relating to it.

Does your website collect and store any other personal data?

Our website uses cookies – small text files that are placed on your machine to help the site provide a better user experience. In general, cookies are used to retain user preferences, store information for things like shopping baskets, and provide anonymised tracking data to third party applications like Google Analytics. As a rule, cookies will make your browsing experience better. However, you may prefer to disable cookies on this site and on others. The most effective way to do this is to disable cookies in your browser. We suggest consulting the Help section of your browser or taking a look at the About Cookies website which offers guidance for all modern browsers.

Do you hold any data about my purchases?

When you place an order with Stubbs Mugs Ltd, we do hold and process your purchase data. This helps us provide order history information to you via the “my account” section of the website or when you contact the Customer Services team.

We also use your purchase information, combined with that from other customers, to help with our marketing plans and to improve our product range and promotional plans.

Who do you share my data with?

We may sometimes contract with trusted third parties to supply certain services. These may include payment processing, delivery, and email marketing. In some cases, those third parties may require access to some or all of your personal data that we hold. For example, we may share your name, address and telephone number or email address with our courier company to fulfil your order.

We will only share your name and address with other selected companies for marketing purposes if you opt-in for this via our website or by contacting us directly.

We never pass customer email addresses on to anyone else outside our trusted third parties for direct marketing purposes.

In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

Is my data used for direct marketing?

If you want to be kept up to date with new product launches, promotions and offers you can opt to receive email newsletters and catalogue mailings from us. You can do this by signing up to our mailing list, ticking a box on the website, or by contacting us directly via email or telephone.

We never pass customer email addresses on to anyone else outside our trusted third parties for direct marketing purposes.

What if I change my mind and no longer want to receive newsletters?

You can unsubscribe from our email newsletters by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any marketing email, or you can make the request to us directly via email or telephone and we will remove your details from our marketing lists.

How will my data be stored?

Maintain all personal data on password protected systems and devices
Ensure all devices have a full encrypted protection.
