Your Personal Information
Unless you choose to provide it to us (for example by placing a sales order and / or subscribing to our mailing list and / or opening an account with us and / or enabling pop-ups [or push notifications] and / or enabling contact with us via Facebook Messenger), we will not collect any personal data from you when you visit our website.
When you place an order on our website, we will store certain information about you to ensure we’re able to fulfil that order and provide you with the best service possible.

However, your credit / debit card details are shared with Stripe (our online payment provider) who use this information in order to process the payment transaction linked to your order.
Please note that our website will never automatically opt you in (via a pre-checked tick box) to receive direct marketing.

The Right To be Forgotten & Prevention of Direct Marketing
The only personal information we ever store for direct marketing purposes is email addresses (and in some instances names). Email addresses are provided to us via functionality embedded within our website (i.e. when an individual subscribes to a mailing list, places an order, or obtains a discount code).
We absolutely respect your right not to receive direct marketing. Should you wish to opt out of receiving marketing emails from Tiddlers & Nippers, please send an email to hello@tiddlersandnippers.com requesting this. We will ensure that your email address is removed from all current (and made unavailable for any future) marketing campaigns and outreach within 28 days of receiving your request.
We fully acknowledge individuals 'right to be forgotten'. Should you wish for your data to be removed from our database in its entirety, please send an email to hello@tiddlersandnippers.com requesting this. We will delete all personal data we hold within 28 days of receiving your request. However, in some instances we may need to 'supress' your personal information (i.e. delete all but essential data, required to ensure we meet legal obligations relating to the tracking of personal data retention). Once those obligations have been fulfilled, all remaining data will be removed.
