How do we store personal information?

We store personal information electronically and in paper form. The personal information is kept safe and secure using generally accepted standard of security. In some cases our third party contractors (e.g. server hosting companies) may store personal information on our behalf, however we will ensure that such contractors have in place appropriate standards of security and confidentiality.

We have taken precautions to ensure that any credit card payments via the Site are safe and secure. We store your credit card details after your first purchase so you don’t need to continually enter and transmit those details over the internet. To protect your personal information and privacy, we automatically encrypt your credit card data using Braintree. Braintree encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. We have also implemented measures to ensure that your stored credit card details are kept safe.
