Please note: I don’t identify individuals to my advertisers, but I do give them aggregate information to help them reach their target audience, and I may use information I have collected to display advertisements to that audience.

In addition, if you don’t want me to use your personal data for any of the other reasons set out in this section in 5, you can let me know at any time by contacting me at info@bee-jewelled.co.uk , and I will delete your data from my systems. However, you acknowledge this will limit my ability to provide the best possible products and services to you.

In some cases, the collection of personal data may be a statutory or contractual requirement, and I will be limited in the products and services I can provide you if you don’t provide your personal data in these cases.

Where I store your data

I may transfer your collected data to storage outside the European Economic Area (EEA). It may be processed outside the EEA to fulfil your order and deal with payment.

By giving me your personal data, you agree to this arrangement. I will do what I reasonably can to keep your data secure.

Payment will be encrypted. If I give you a password, you must keep it confidential. Please don’t share it. Although I try to provide protection, I cannot guarantee complete security for your data, and you take the risk that any sending of that data turns out to be not secure despite my efforts.

I only keep your personal data for as long as I need to in order to use it as described above in section 5, and/or for as long as I have your permission to keep it. In any event, I will conduct an annual review to ascertain whether I need to keep your personal data. Your personal data will be deleted if I no longer need it.

I am allowed to disclose your information in the following cases:

  • If I want to sell my business, or my company, I can disclose it to the potential buyer.

I may contract with third parties to supply services to you on my behalf. These may include payment processing, search engine facilities, advertising and marketing. In some cases, the third parties may require access to some or all of your data. These are the third parties that have access to your information: Stripe (payment system).

Where any of your data is required for such a purpose, I will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data will be handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, my obligations, and the obligations of the third party under GDPR and the law.
