Our Lawful Bases for Processing
Under the UK GDPR, we rely on one or more of the following lawful bases:
- Contract: where processing is necessary to accept, fulfil, deliver, or manage your order.
- Legal obligation: where we must retain or disclose information to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
- Legitimate interests: where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as fraud prevention, website security, customer service, business administration, and service improvement, provided those interests do not override your rights and freedoms.
- Consent: where you have agreed to optional cookies, certain marketing communications, personalised advertising, or another activity that requires consent.
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Marketing Communications
We may send you promotional emails where you have consented or where otherwise permitted under applicable law.
You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in a marketing email or by contacting us at contact@norcrestshop.com.
Even after you unsubscribe from marketing, we may still send essential messages about your orders, transactions, account, returns, security, or legal matters.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, and similar technologies to:
- Operate essential website and checkout functions;
- Remember your settings and preferences;
- Keep the website secure and prevent fraud;
- Understand how visitors use our website;
- Measure website and advertising performance;
- Personalise content and advertisements where permitted;
- Support analytics, remarketing, and marketing activities.
Where required by law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies will be used only after you have provided consent. You can manage your choices through the cookie banner or privacy-preference controls available on our website.
You may also manage cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may prevent certain parts of the website or checkout from functioning correctly.
Shopify
Our store is hosted on Shopify, which provides the e-commerce platform used to operate our website and process customer transactions.
Shopify may collect and process personal information as a service provider to us and, in certain circumstances, for its own purposes. Information processed through Shopify may be stored or handled in countries outside the United Kingdom.
Shopify’s own privacy notices provide additional information about how Shopify processes personal information.
How We Share Personal Information
We may share personal information with service providers and other parties where necessary to operate our business, including:
- Shopify and website-hosting providers;
- Payment processors and financial institutions;
- Product suppliers and order-fulfilment partners;
- Delivery, postal, courier, and logistics providers;
- Customer service and communications providers;
- Fraud detection, payment-security, and identity-verification providers;
- Analytics, advertising, and marketing platforms;
- IT, cloud-storage, security, and technical support providers;
- Professional advisers, including accountants, lawyers, and insurers;
- Government bodies, regulators, courts, or law-enforcement authorities where required by law.
We may also disclose personal information in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, sale of assets, or transfer of all or part of our business, subject to appropriate safeguards.
Service providers are permitted to process personal information only for authorised purposes and must protect it appropriately.
We do not sell your personal information for monetary payment. However, certain advertising or analytics activities may be treated as “selling”, “sharing”, or targeted advertising under some privacy laws outside the United Kingdom. Where applicable, you may manage these activities through our privacy controls.
International Data Transfers
Norcrest is operated by a company established in the United States, and some of our suppliers, service providers, payment processors, technology providers, and logistics partners may be located outside the United Kingdom.
As a result, your personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries whose data protection laws may differ from those of the United Kingdom.
Where UK data protection law requires it, we use appropriate safeguards for restricted international transfers. These may include adequacy regulations, contractual protections approved for use under UK law, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to approved contractual clauses, or another lawful transfer mechanism.
You may contact us for further information about the safeguards relevant to your personal information.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including fulfilling orders, maintaining business and transaction records, complying with tax and accounting requirements, resolving disputes, preventing fraud, and enforcing agreements.
The applicable retention period depends on the nature of the information, why it was collected, legal requirements, the risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, and whether the purpose can be achieved by other means.
When information is no longer required, we may delete, anonymise, or securely dispose of it, unless continued retention is required or permitted by law.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information against accidental loss, unlawful use, unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on the circumstances and subject to applicable legal limitations, you may have the right to:
- Request access to the personal information we hold about you;
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
- Request erasure of your personal information;
- Request restriction of certain processing activities;
- Object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- Object at any time to the use of your information for direct marketing;
- Request data portability where applicable;
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- Request information about relevant international-transfer safeguards;
- Lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
To exercise your rights, contact us at contact@norcrestshop.com. We may request information necessary to verify your identity before responding.
We aim to respond within the timeframe required by applicable law. In certain circumstances, we may lawfully refuse a request or charge a reasonable fee, and we will explain the reason where required.
Automated Decision-Making
We and our service providers may use automated tools to identify potentially fraudulent or suspicious transactions. These checks may affect whether an order or payment is accepted, delayed, reviewed, or cancelled.
We do not intend to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects unless permitted by law and appropriate safeguards are in place.
Children’s Privacy
Our website and products are intended for a general adult audience and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in circumstances where parental or guardian consent is required by law.
If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information inappropriately, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
Third-Party Websites
Our website may contain links to websites, applications, or services operated by third parties. We are not responsible for their content, security, or privacy practices. We recommend reviewing their privacy notices before providing personal information.
Complaints
Please contact us first if you have concerns about how we process your personal information, so that we have an opportunity to address them.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the United Kingdom’s data protection supervisory authority.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes to our practices, services, technology, or legal obligations.
The updated version will be published on this page. Where changes are material, we may provide an additional notice where required by law.
