We store data you typed into our website, and save emails and messages you sent to us through email and our chat facility. We also collect information on the device you use in order to correctly format a web-page, and assist in anti-fraud activity if we have reason to suspect somebody is using your device or account for fraudulent purposes.

Any personal data we gather and hold is for our own use and will not be passed to a third party unless necessary to provide a service (such as delivery), or to verify your mobile number, or to complete due dilligence, or we are legally obliged to do so, or you have been involved in a transaction where fraud was committed. We maintain customer confidentiality until there is overwhelming evidence or legal obligation, and we always inform the customer before passing any details to the authorities unless the authorities have forbidden us from doing so.

This list below explains how your data is processed...

• Delivery address is printed onto envelopes when dispatching physical gift cards and vouchers.
• Mobile number is passed to a third party gateway to send a confirmation SMS message.
• Email address is passed to a third party processor like Mailchimp for sending out newsletters. Every newsletter has an opt-out link, and using the opt-out link will remove you from all future marketing and promotion emails. Declining opt-in or using the opt-out link does not preclude you from receiving non-promotional newsletters such as details on new features. To stop all emails, use the Cancel my account button detailed in clause 16 below.
• Bank Account number is passed to our bank to make payments.
• Credit Card details are passed to our payment processor who are PCI DSS approved to the highest level of compliance. We do not store any credit details, but do store tokens which are unique to your credit card.
• Bank Account number, billing address, email address, telephone number, data from driving licence and other forms of ID are sent to our trusted credit reference agency. For more information see due dilligence.

Privacy Policy and how to request data deletion. We store your information whilst you are a user. You can request data deletion by cancelling your account at which point all data held on you will be deleted. To cancel your account, use the Cancel my account button on your My Account page. We will not accept requests in any other way to cancel your account. If your account is cancelled, either by you or after a period of inactivity, your personal data will either be deleted within 24 hours, or scrambled for anonymity and will become unavailable for our use, other than required by law and binding greements including but not limited to information on sale and purchase and for anti-fraud efforts, as follows:

1. If you have never transacted with us (bought or sold gift cards) you data will be deleted within 24 hours and the rest of this clause is not attributable to you.
2. If you have transacted with us your data will be scrambled for anonymity on our internet server, and held in our accounting system for purposes of sale and purchase agreements.

18 months after cancellation, account data unrelated to financial transaction and anti-fraud efforts will be destroyed. If your account is inactive for a set period, you will be informed that it will be cancelled, and after a period pending cancellation, it will be cancelled.
