3. Why we use your information
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Processing payments, fulfilling orders, and handling order-related enquiries, returns and refunds | Performing our contract with you or taking steps at your request before entering into a contract |
| Sending requested waitlist updates and marketing emails | Your consent |
| Responding to general enquiries | Our legitimate interest in answering questions and providing customer service |

If you do not provide information necessary to process an order, we may be unable to accept or fulfil it. Joining our waitlist or receiving marketing is optional.
4. Marketing
We send waitlist updates and marketing emails where you have consented to receive them. Joining a product waitlist does not automatically subscribe you to unrelated marketing.
You can withdraw your consent at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us. This does not affect essential service messages about an existing order.
5. Who we share information with
Where necessary, we share information with:
-
Payment providers, to process payments and help prevent fraud.
-
Delivery services, to deliver orders and provide delivery updates.
-
Hosting, website, email and analytics providers, to operate our services.
-
Accountants, legal advisers and other professional advisers.
-
Public authorities, where disclosure is legally required.
Providers acting as our processors handle information under appropriate contracts and our instructions. Some recipients, including certain payment providers and delivery services, act as independent controllers for some activities and have their own privacy notices.
We do not sell your personal information.
6. International transfers
Some of our service providers may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.
Where we make a restricted international transfer, we ensure that it is covered by applicable UK adequacy regulations or appropriate safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum to the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, together with any additional measures required.
You can contact us for details of the destinations and safeguards applicable to your information, including a copy of relevant safeguards, subject to necessary redactions.

We retain information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this notice.
Accounting and tax records: normally six years from the end of the financial year they relate to, or longer where legally required.
Other order and customer-service records: normally up to six years after the order is completed, where necessary to deal with warranties, disputes or legal claims.
Waitlist information: until you unsubscribe, or up to 12 months after signup if the relevant product or service has not launched. After launch, we remove waitlist information within three months of the final update unless you separately subscribe to marketing.
Marketing subscriptions: until you unsubscribe, or after 24 months without interaction with our marketing or services.
