Privacy Statement |
Whenever
you enter any personal details, they are transferred to the server
across an industry standard secure connection that encrypts all data.
This ensures that any details you enter on our Web site are encrypted
before being transmitted across the Internet, with the goal of making
it safe for you to provide your details and prevent any unauthorized
person from gaining access to the information.
Credit card security
We use an independent secure payment system to deal with payment card
details. We will only ask you to enter your payment card information
after you have put the items you want to order into your shopping
basket.
When you are ready to pay for your product, your payment card information
will be encrypted to keep it secure. Encryption prevents other people,
including us, from looking at your card information. No credit card
data is stored permanently. Because of this security feature, you
will need to re-enter your payment card information each time you
place an order with us.
We can process payments from Visa, American Express, Mastercard and
Discover.
Privacy
In general, you can visit this website without telling us who you
are or giving any information about yourself. The only time we collect
information from you is when you:
- place an order with us so that we can process your order and contact you
- update your account details
In these instances, we ask for your name, address, e-mail address
and other appropriate information we need. If you place an order through
this Web site, we will also ask for certain payment card information
to check and charge your account. This information is never stored
on our Web site.
We are committed to protecting your privacy. We will only use the
information that we collect about you lawfully in accordance with
the Data Protection Act 1998.
We collect information about you for two reasons: first, to process
your order, and second, to provide information about products and
services which might be of interest to you.
In order to ensure that the information we hold about you remains
accurate and up to date, please check the information that we hold
about you by visiting the "My Account" page. If you find
any inaccuracies, you can update your profile or contact us via the
form here. The personal information we do hold will be kept securely
in accordance with our internal security policy, and the law. If you
have any questions/comments about privacy, please use the form on
the Contact Us page to communicate them to us.
Use of personal information
If you choose to give us personal information, such as your name,
address and e-mail address, we may use this information for marketing
and promotional purposes, such as mailings announcing new OICM products
or making promotional offers.
We do not rent, sell or give customer-identifying information to other
companies. When you order goods through this Web site, the order form
may ask you to provide a daytime phone number. We will only use this
phone number to ask you questions about an order or to let you know,
for example, that the payment is incorrect or there is an additional
shipping charge. We will not call you to try and sell you other products.
When you place an order we will also ask for your e-mail address,
so we can send e-mails to you confirming your orders and shipments.
We may also send you e-mails in the future about promotions and offers.
If you do not want us to use your personal information for our marketing
or promotional activities, please tick the mail option preference
box in the "My Account" section.
Removing your name from our mailing list
You may ask us at any time to remove your name and address from any
future mailings, including new product announcements and special offers,
by updating your opt-out details in the "My Account" section
at any time and asking for all your details to be removed from our
database.
