Our Privacy Policy

At St Cyr Vintage we are committed to safeguarding and respecting the privacy of our visitors. 

This Privacy Policy explains what happens to personal information that you provide to us, or data we collect from you whilst you visit our website (regardless of where you visit it from). It is important that you read this Privacy Policy so that you are fully aware of how and why we may use your data. This Privacy Policy should be read together with our Website Terms & Conditions.

We may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. We recommend you review this page regularly. By using our website, you’re agreeing to be bound by this Policy.

Who we are

Our website address is: https://www.stcyrvintage.co.uk.

What personal data do we collect?

We collect the following information:

  • Identity data including first name and last name
  • Contact information including email address
  • Demographic information such as postcode
  • Profile Data including your username (or similar identifier) and password
  • Information provided voluntarily by you, for example, when you register for information or make a purchase

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Any information you include in a comment on our blog may be read, collected and used by anyone. If your personal information appears on our blogs and you would like it to be removed, please contact us by email.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Cookies

Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual and help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us. You can choose to accept or decline cookies. If you chose to decline cookies this may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

We may also use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracing your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Links to other websites

We may include links to third parties on this website, for example, a link to Instagram or Facebook. Where we provide a link it does not mean that we approve or endorse that site’s privacy policy; we do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave our website, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of the other websites you visit. You should carefully review these privacy policies prior to engaging with the third party in order to ensure that you are happy with them.

What we do with the information we collect?

We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons:

  • Provide information to you that you request from us relating to our products or services.
  • Internal record keeping.
  • We may use the information to improve our products and services.
  • When your consent has been provided in advance we will periodically send emails about new products, special offers or other information which we think you may find interesting.

Who has access to your information?

We will never sell your personal details to any company, and unless specifically authorised by you to do so, we will never pass your details to third-party companies for mailing or marketing purposes outside of our website.

We may pass your information to our third party service providers for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf, for example, to companies who deliver your goods, or companies used to take payments, like PayPal, or for the purpose of providing automatic follow-up emails with an invitation to submit a review. However, when we use third party service providers, we disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service.

We may obtain information about you or your purchases from other third parties. These companies have their own privacy policies explaining how they use and share your personal data.

Commitment to Children’s Privacy

We never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13.

How long do we retain your data?

We will not retain your data for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy.

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Storing Your Personal Data

In operating our website it may become necessary to transfer data that we collect from you to locations outside of the European Union for processing and storing. By providing your personal data to us, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We do our upmost to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to make sure that your data is treated stored securely. We will not retain your data for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this Policy.

Unfortunately the sending of information via the internet is not totally secure and on occasion such information can be intercepted. We cannot guarantee the security of data that you choose to send us electronically.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. To protect your privacy and security, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

You have a choice about whether or not you wish to receive information from us. We will not contact you for marketing purposes by email, phone or text message unless you have given your prior consent. We will not contact you for marketing purposes by post. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by logging in to your account and selection from the options available, or contacting us by email to info@stcyrvintage.co.uk.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
