You don’t have to give us any of your personal information, but if you don’t, you may not be able to purchase from us and are unlikely to receive an optimal customer experience from us.
We also anonymise and aggregate personal information (so that you won’t be identified) and use it for purposes such as IT systems tests, research, data analysis, improving our website and customer service, and developing new products and services. We may also share this information with third parties.
We do not and will not sell any of your personal data to any third party – including your name, address, email, or credit card information. We believe that this is essential in earning your trust.
However, we share data with the following categories of companies as an essential part of our service to you:
- Companies within our group, as sometimes different departments/companies within our group are responsible for different activities
- Companies that are part of delivering your purchases, such as payment service providers, warehouses, logistics and delivery companies

- Credit reference agencies, law enforcement, and fraud prevention agencies
Companies approved by you, such as social media sites – if you choose to link your account to us
We may provide third parties with aggregated but anonymised information and analytics about our customers, but we will not identify you.

If you have approved, we will send you marketing messages by email and/or SMS, to keep you aware of our latest updates and help you shop on our website better
If you want to stop receiving marketing messages from us, you can do so at any time via the following means:

Please note that it may take a few days for our systems to be fully updated on your request, and you might still get messages from us during this period.
Stopping marketing messages will not stop our service communications such as order updates, or where you have expressed an interest in an event/activity.
