In large, this data consists of names and email addresses for mailing purposes and email addresses, addresses, phone numbers and order details from online sales by past and present customers.

How we use your personal information

Your information will be held by Karen Williams of Food Intolerance Cornwall. This privacy notice is to let you know how the data processor will look after your information. This includes the choices you give us about what marketing you want us to send you. This notice also tells you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.

The privacy promise

We promise:

How the law protects you.

Your privacy is protected by law.

Data protection law says that we are allowed to use personal information only if we have a proper reason to do so.

The law says we must have one or more of these reasons:

  • To fulfil a contract we have with you
  • When it is our legal duty
  • When you consent to it.

When we have a business or commercial reason of our own to use your information, this is called a ‘legitimate interest’. We will tell you what that is, if we are going to rely on it as the reason for using your data. Even then, it must not unfairly go against your interests.

The law and other regulations treat some types of sensitive personal information as special. This includes information about racial or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, trade union membership, health data, and criminal records. We will not collect or use these types of data.

Here is a list of all the ways that we may use your personal information, and which of the reasons we rely on to do so. This is also where we tell you what our legitimate interests are.

What we use your personal information for     

  • To develop and carry out marketing activities
  • To communicate with you about our products and services
  • Your consent
  • Keeping our records up to date
  • Developing products and services
