Lawful Bases
Under the UK GDPR, we rely on the following lawful bases:
-
Contract: where processing is necessary to accept, fulfil or manage your order
-
Legal obligation: where processing is necessary to meet our legal, tax or accounting responsibilities
-
Legitimate interests: where necessary to operate, secure and improve our business, prevent fraud and provide effective customer service, provided those interests do not override your rights
-
Consent: where you have chosen to receive certain marketing communications or accepted non-essential cookies
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
Sharing Your Information
We share personal information only where necessary to operate our business and provide our services. This may include:
-
Shopify, which hosts our online shop
-
Payment processors
-
Delivery companies and fulfilment partners
-
Customer support, website, analytics and communications providers
-
Professional advisers and public authorities where required by law
These providers may only use personal information as permitted under their agreements with us and applicable law.
We do not sell your personal information.
International Transfers
Some of our service providers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, we use an appropriate safeguard recognised under UK data protection law, such as UK adequacy regulations or approved contractual protections, where required.
Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use the website and, where you have consented, support personalised advertising or marketing.
Essential cookies are required for the website and checkout to function. Non-essential cookies will only be used where you have provided the required consent.
You can review or change your cookie preferences through the cookie controls available on our website. You can also restrict cookies through your browser settings, although doing so may affect some website features.
Marketing Communications
If you have agreed to receive marketing emails or messages, you may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in the communication or by contacting support@elowenrose.co.uk.
Unsubscribing from marketing will not prevent us from sending necessary service communications about an existing order.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including fulfilling orders, providing customer support, maintaining transaction records, resolving disputes and complying with legal, tax and accounting requirements.
Retention periods vary depending on the type of information and our legal obligations. When information is no longer required, we will delete or anonymise it where appropriate.

-
Request access to your personal information

Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information

Ask us to delete your personal information

Request that we restrict the use of your information

-
Request the transfer of certain information to you or another provider

Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
These rights may be subject to legal limitations.

You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. Further information is available at ico.org.uk. We would appreciate the opportunity to address your concern first.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. However, no online transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
