Please Note: We will always rely on formal consent being given as the basis for processing personal data for promotional and marketing communications by whatever media we use.

Customers have the right to withdraw consent at any time. Please see the right to be forgotten. Where such consent has been given for a specific purpose (e.g. promotional and marketing communications), we will cease to process data after consent is withdrawn. 

Legal Obligation: We may need to process personal data to enable us to comply with UK law and regulatory requirements.

Our Email Policy

We fully comply with the federal CAN-SPAM Act.  You can always opt out of receipt of further email correspondence from us.  We will not sell, rent, or trade your email address to any unaffiliated third-party.
  
We will only send you promotional emails about our products or services, if you have “opted in” to receive our emails. We use one of the world’s most renown and trustworthy mailing list providers, and our mailing list is “double opt in” which means you have to confirm that you would like to opt in to our list, and at the time that you opt in, this is recorded along with your IP address, so that we have a clear audit trail when it comes to consent to email you.  

Should you wish to “opt out” at any time, there is a very clear link at the bottom of each email to unsubscribe, and clicking this link will result in you opting out of our mailing list at which point you will be removed from the mailing list, and we will not send you further communications of this nature.
  
Aside from our mailing list, if you have contacted us, either in person, via telephone or via email, and requested information to be delivered to you via email, such as further product information or a quotation, in this case we rely on the legal base of “Legitimate Interest” when it comes to the email correspondence that we will send to you as requested. However, should you ever wish for us to delete your email address from our system so that we are unable to email you again without your express request, simply email us or telephone us on +44 (0)20 3620 6497, or write to us using the address on our contact us page, requesting that we delete your email from our systems, and this will be done immediately.
