What Data We Store

When a customer signs up for an account, no matter whether they're purchasing or not, our website will store the details they have provided.. If the account is created by our staff, the minimum amount of data this will contain is the customer's email address, password (which is encrypted), the date they registered and the date they last visited. If the User created the account themselves, then it will also contain the IP address and Host Name they used the last time they logged in. If the customer types in further information, such as their address and telephone number, this will also be stored on their account.

When a User places an order, the information they enter, such as their name, email address, billing address, delivery address, telephone number, company name, and VAT number will be stored within the order. The other information that is stored is as follows:

• their IP address, its host name and its country location
• the type of device they used, such as mobile or desktop
• the date and time they ordered
• their payment method
• how much they paid
• the shipping method
• the number of loyalty points they earned, if applicable
• any activity on the order, such as the date and time the order was completed by our staff
• whether they are a new customer, a returning one or a guest
• the products they ordered

Please note: No payment information, such as credit card number, is ever stored within our site or our systems servers. This information is always stored separately by our payment provider(s).

Web browser cookies

Our Site may use "cookies" to enhance User experience. User's web browser places cookies on their hard drive for record-keeping purposes and sometimes to track information about them. User may choose to set their web browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If they do so, note that some parts of the Site may not function properly.

The two cookies that are used within our websites software are as follows:

PHPSESSID - Contains a PHP "session ID", expires when the browser is closed

The "PHPSESSID" cookie is required so that the site can recognise the same user clicking from page to page. Without it, every page would be treated as the first visit to the site, and anything added to the shopping basket would be instantly forgotten. Online shopping would, therefore, be impossible.

Session - Contains a PHP "session ID", can also contain an email address and encrypted password, expires after one year

The "session" cookie is intended for the user's convenience, our website software creates this with a copy of the initial session ID so that they can be classed as "returning" and the contents of their shopping basket will still be available. If the user signs in with an email address and password, these login details are are also saved so that they can remain logged in when returning (the password is encrypted). If the user signs out, their login details are removed from the cookie.

Any other cookies are created by 3rd party scripts, such as Google Analytics, and any information about the cookies they use can be obtained through them.

How we use collected information

Analogue Seduction collects and uses Users personal information for the following purposes:

• To improve customer service
  Your information helps us to more effectively respond to your customer service requests and support needs.
• To personalize user experience
  We may use information in the aggregate to understand how our Users as a group use the services and resources provided on our Site.
• To process transactions
  We may use the information Users provide about themselves when placing an order only to provide service to that order. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to provide the service.
• To send periodic emails
  
  The email address Users provide for order processing, will only be used to send them information and updates pertaining to their order. It may also be used to respond to their inquiries, and/or other requests or questions. If User decides to opt-in to our mailing list, they will receive emails that may include company news, updates, related product or service information, etc. If at any time the User would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, we include detailed unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of each email or User may contact us via our Site.

Social Media Plugins

The social media share buttons, which can be found on all product pages and blog pages, only transmit data once they have been clicked. Therefore, the button only becomes active once the User has clicked on it, and at this point they will be using the social media's website. The only data the social media's servers receive from our site is referral information from the page, such a product title and image. No personal data is transmitted.

The Facebook login feature works in a similar way, and no personal information is transmitted to Facebook. However, once the User has clicked on the button, any data that is gathered from their Facebook account, such as name and Facebook ID, will be stored within their User Account.

This can be deleted as usual, if requested.

How we protect your information

We adopt appropriate data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your personal information, username, password, transaction information and data stored on our Site.

Sensitive and private data exchange between the Site and its Users happens over a SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures. 

The right to access

All Users who have created an account on our website can access the data wehold about them by logging into their account. Information such as your IP address and the last time they logged in is not viewable here, but is stored within your user account within the admin console. You can request to see this at any time and we will comply within 48 hours.

Customers who checkout using Guest Checkout will not be able to access their data via an account on your website. Therefore, we will provide details of the data westore for them within their order, if they request to see it.

The right to rectification

Customers with an account can change any information stored about them within the Personal Information section of their account.

Data stored within a customer's order remains unchanged if they change their personal information within their account. This can be changed, upon request, for all customers even if they checked out as a Guest. Please contact us to arrange this.

The right to be forgotten

Under new rules everyone has the right to be forgotten on websites. Subscribers to our email newsletters can click on the Unsubscribe link that is automatically added to all email newsletters from us. You also have the right to ask us to remove any data we hold on you in a User account. You can request this here.

Please be aware, User details will still remain on any orders they have placed due to VAT regulations. This is because VAT records must be kept for at least six years from the date of creation and, if they're not, we will be in breach of the VAT Act 1994 and HMRC Notice 700/21 October 2013.
