This commitment includes respecting and protecting the privacy of personal information that we obtain through our site. This privacy policy provides you with information about how we collect, use, and share your personal information, and our privacy practices in general. We take appropriate security measures (including physical, electronic, and procedural measures) to help safeguard your personal information from unauthorized access and disclosure. For example, only authorized employees are permitted to access personal information, and they may do so only for permitted business functions. In addition, we use encryption in the transmission of your sensitive personal information between your system and ours, and we use firewalls to help prevent unauthorized persons from gaining access to your personal information. We process your personal data to meet our legal, statutory, and contractual obligations and to provide you with our products and services.

We collect data from you in the following ways:

We do not share or disclose any of your personal data to third parties without your consent, other than for the purposes specified in this notice or where there is a legal requirement. As is normal for the ecommerce industry, we share your browsing data with some third-party marketing organizations, primarily through JavaScript tracking code. Those organizations become the controllers of that data, so if you opt-out of any further tracking on our site you would need to contact those organizations directly to exercise your other data rights. These data transfers are in Gi designs’ legitimate interest. We share your personal data with some other organizations as part of the order fulfilment process. This data processing is part of your contract with us when you place an order. These companies are joint controllers with Gi designs of your customer data, so you will need to contact them directly to exercise your data rights. We will only send you email marketing communications if you have opted in to receive them. You have the right to opt-out at any time, please see the footer of the emails for details. You may opt out of other marketing communications via post, telephone, or SMS, from the [My Account] area. The data you can manage from your My Account area will be stored until you remove it, for example your wish lists and saved addresses. Data about your orders and communications with us will be held indefinitely as we need a legal record of these. Website behavioural data will be kept for up to 38 months, after which time we aim to store only aggregated, non-personal data. You may also delete your account which removes most of the data we hold about you – see the “Right to erasure” section for more details. We take your privacy and data security seriously and we take every reasonable measure and precaution to protect and secure your personal data. We work hard to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction and have several layers of security measures in place. You have many rights around the use of your personal data. We are implementing them in the following ways:
