PRIVACY AND COOKIE
POLICY
We are BuildStore Limited.
When you register with our website, or purchase the services
available on the site, we will collect personal details
in relation to your name, address, telephone numbers, and
the organisation that you work for (if applicable). We will
use your personal details to provide you with our services,
for administration and customer services, and also for marketing.
We may keep your information for a reasonable period for
these purposes. We may need to share your information with
our service providers and agents for these purposes. We
may disclose personal data in order to comply with a legal
or regulatory obligation.
We may also use information
obtained about you from cookies (files which are sent by
us to your computer or other access device) which we may
access when you open an email from us or visit our site
in future. We are able to do this by including web beacons
(also known as clear GIFS or web bugs) in our emails. We
use cookies to help us to recognise you (just by number
and not by name) when you return to our website, and to
allow us to tailor the content of advertisements to match
your preferred interests or to avoid showing you the same
adverts repeatedly. We may also use cookies to compile anonymous,
aggregated statistics that allow us to understand how you
use our site and to help us improve the structure of our
website. We cannot identify you personally in this way.
If you want to delete any cookies that are already on your
computer, please refer to the instructions for your file
management software to locate the file or directory that
stores cookies. Our cookies will have www.buildstore.co.uk
as the orginating site. If you want to stop cookies being
stored on your computer in future, please refer to your
browser manufacturer's instructions by clicking "Help"
in your browser menu. Further information on deleting or
controlling cookies is available at www.AboutCookies.org.
Please note that by deleting our cookies or disabling future
cookies you may not be able to access certain areas or features
of our site.
Our web beacons do not store
additional information on your computer but, by communicating
with our cookies on your computer, they can tell us when
you have opened our email and the number of users that have
visited particular parts of the site. If you object to web
beacons, we recommend that you follow the instructions for
deleting existing cookies and disabling future cookies.
We will still know how many of our emails are opened and
we will automatically receive your IP address, a unique
identifier for your computer or other access device; but
we will not identify you as an individual.
With or without web beacons,
your IP address may also be logged when you visit our site.
You consent to our transferring
your information to countries or jurisdictions which do
not provide the same level of data protection as the UK,
if necessary for the above purposes. If we do make such
a transfer, we or they will, if appropriate, put a contract
in place to ensure that your information is protected.
If you provide us with information
about another person, you confirm that they have appointed
you to act for them, to consent to the processing of their
personal data and that you have informed them of our identity
and the purposes (as set out above) for which their personal
data will be processed.
We offer the use of a secure
server when you place orders or access your account information.
SSL (the secure server software) encrypts your information
before it is sent to us. We also take appropriate measures
to ensure that the information disclosed to us is kept secure,
accurate and up to date and kept only for so long as is
necessary for the purposes for which it is used.
You are entitled to ask
for a copy of the information we hold about you (for which
we may charge a small fee) and to have any inaccuracies
in your information corrected.
For quality control and
training purposes, we may monitor or record your communications
with us.
If your personal details
change, if you change your mind about any of your marketing
preferences or if you have any queries about how we use
your information, please let us know by contacting our Mailing
Exclusion Team, webmaster@buildstore.co.uk.
This data protection notice
may change and therefore you should review it regularly.
We will of course notify you of any changes where we are
required to do so.
