What we do with the information we have? 
We use the Information that we collect generally to fulfill any orders placed by you (including processing your payment information, arranging for shipping, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Order Information to: 
- Communicate with you; 
- Screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and 
- When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services. 

We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns). 
 
We may also use your Personal Information to provide you with targeted advertisements or marketing communications we believe may be of interest to you. For more information about how targeted advertising works, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s (“NAI”) educational page at http://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising/how-does-it-work.

We may share the information you provide us with: 
Our trusted suppliers and service providers - for example, we don’t deliver all of our items of furniture ourselves and instead use a local delivery firm. In order to deliver items to you it is necessary to provide the delivery firm with your name, address, phone number and the item/s purchased for delivery. 
We may also use your name as a reference against an product order with our suppliers to help us identify specific products when they arrive with us. 
We use Shopify to power our online store and point-of-sale systems. You can read more about how Shopify uses your Personal Information here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy. 
We also use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers use the our site. You can read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/. 
You can also opt-out of Google Analytics here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. 
Finally, we may also share your Personal Information so as to comply with applicable laws and regulations at the request of law enforcement or other appropriate bodies in the course of their lawful business.
 
How we store your information. 
We use computers, tablets and mobile phones manufactured by Apple. We also use cloud-based systems and storage via Microsoft. We use social media applications provided by Meta (formally known as Facebook).
Our systems are password protected with 2-factor identification. Our networks are also appropriately password protected.
 
We keep the information you provide us for as long as we feel it necessary so as to be able to provide you with excellent customer service and a seamless shopping experience. If you ask us to remove and delete your data we will do so as swiftly and securely as possible, and confirm to you once we have done so.
 
Where we record financial information such as debit or credit card information, we will delete it as soon as the legitimate need to hold it has expired. For example, if an item is taken ‘on apro’ we will record your debit or credit card details so as to protect the value of our goods and then, should you decide to keep the items, to provide a better service to you by being able to process your payment without you having to return to store, with your agreement. We will then dispose of this information securely.
