Privacy Policy
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (EU) 2016/679 is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union. It also addresses the export of personal data outside the EU.
Here’s a reminder about what data I (Ian Hodgson) holds about customers and what it does with that data:
• I only hold data relevant to the business which is name and email address.
• These are only held for the purpose of deliveries, collections and collection of payments.
• No other personal details are kept.
• I will never contact you with promotions or marketing and the data is never passed on to 3rd parties.
• Also, if you want an account deleting please contact me and this will be removed immediately.
If you have any further questions regarding this policy on GDPR, please email ian@ian-hodgson.co.uk.
