What we do with the information we gather

Newlyn will not disclose personal information gathered on this website to any third parties without your prior consent, unless we are required to do so by law, or if you are in breach of our Terms & Conditions.

Information collected as part of the selling process allows us to be able to sell, supply and deliver products to you. When you provide us with personal and payment information to complete a transaction, place an order or return a purchase, you imply that you consent to our collecting and using that information for that specific reason only.

Security

We have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to protect any information provided from theft, alteration or unauthorised inspection. Although no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, we implement all generally accepted industry standards.

Third party services

Our shop is self-hosted, and we use Stripe as a payment gateway for all orders made through this website.

In general, the third party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third party service provider, your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.

Once you leave our shop’s website or are redirected to a third party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms & Conditions.

Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. We are not responsible for the content of third party sites or the protection or privacy of any information you provide whilst visiting such sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any third party sites.
