You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe option included in our marketing emails or by contacting:

Unsubscribing from marketing communications will not prevent us from sending essential transactional communications relating to an order, account or enquiry.
We may use Shopify or another specialist email marketing provider to manage our marketing communications.

We use analytics technologies to understand how visitors use the Craftcoat website.
This may include services such as Google Analytics.
Analytics information can help us understand matters such as:

- which pages are visited;
- how visitors move around the website;

- website performance; and
- the effectiveness of our marketing.
Where required, non-essential analytics technologies will be subject to the choices provided through our cookie consent system.
Advertising and Remarketing
Craftcoat may advertise through platforms including Google, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
We may use advertising technologies provided by these platforms to measure advertising performance, understand whether advertising leads to visits or purchases and, where permitted, show relevant advertising to people who have previously interacted with Craftcoat.
These technologies may include advertising pixels, tags, cookies and similar technologies.
Information processed through these systems may include information about:
- visits to our website;
- pages and products viewed;
- interactions with the website;
- purchases or other conversions;

You can change your cookie preferences through the cookie controls available on our website.
Reviews and Customer Content
Customers may be invited to submit product reviews and, where available, photographs or other content relating to Craftcoat products.
If you submit a review, we may process information such as your name, review, rating, photographs and information relating to your purchase.
Reviews or customer content intended for publication may be displayed publicly on our website.
Please do not include personal information in a public review that you do not want other people to see.
We may use a third-party review service to collect, verify, manage or display customer reviews.

Why We Process Personal Information
Depending on the circumstances, we process personal information because:
- it is necessary to fulfil a contract with you, such as processing and delivering an order;
- it is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract;
- we have a legal obligation;
- we have a legitimate business interest that is not overridden by your rights and interests; or
- you have provided consent.
Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
Who We Share Information With
We may share personal information with organisations that help us operate Craftcoat, including:
- Shopify and ecommerce service providers;
- payment processors;
- Royal Mail, Evri and other delivery companies;
- website hosting and technology providers;
- email marketing providers;
- review platforms;
- analytics providers;
- Google and associated advertising services;
- Meta services, including Facebook and Instagram;
- TikTok and associated advertising services;
- professional advisers such as accountants, legal advisers and insurers;
- fraud prevention and security providers; and
- government, regulatory or law-enforcement bodies where legally required.
We only share information where reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose or where required by law.
We Do Not Sell Customer Lists
Craftcoat does not sell customer lists or customer contact information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
We may, however, use third-party platforms and service providers to operate our own advertising, analytics, ecommerce and marketing activities as described in this policy.
International Data Transfers
Some companies that provide technology, ecommerce, analytics, advertising or other services to Craftcoat may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.
Where personal information is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards will be used where required by applicable data protection law.
How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, accounting, tax, fraud prevention and business record requirements.
Different types of information may therefore be retained for different periods.
For example, information relating to purchases and financial transactions may need to be retained for several years to comply with accounting and tax obligations.
Marketing information may be retained until you unsubscribe or otherwise withdraw your permission, subject to retaining limited information where necessary to record that you have opted out.
Keeping Your Information Secure
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
However, no internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Cookies
The Craftcoat website uses cookies and similar technologies.
Some cookies are necessary for the website and ecommerce functions to operate. Others may be used for analytics, advertising, personalisation and measuring website performance.
Where required, you will be given choices regarding non-essential cookies through our cookie consent system.
Further information is available in our Cookie Policy.
