4. How We Use Personal Information and Our Lawful Bases
We process personal information only when we have a lawful basis to do so. Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on the following lawful bases:
-
Performance of a contract: to process payment, confirm and fulfil your order, arrange delivery, provide order updates, manage your account, handle returns or refunds and provide the products or services you request.
-
Legal obligation: to maintain tax and accounting records, comply with consumer-protection and data-protection requirements, respond to lawful requests and meet other legal or regulatory obligations.
-
Legitimate interests: to operate and improve our store, provide customer support, keep the Services secure, prevent fraud and misuse, understand store performance, protect our legal rights and manage our business efficiently. We rely on this basis only where our interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
-
Consent: to send certain direct marketing communications and to use non-essential cookies or similar technologies where consent is required. You may withdraw your consent at any time.
We may use your personal information to:
-
provide, operate, maintain and improve the Services;
-
process payments and fulfil, deliver, return, exchange, cancel or refund orders;
-
communicate with you about orders, accounts, enquiries, complaints, updates and customer support;

personalise your shopping experience and remember your preferences;

detect, investigate and prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents and unlawful activity;
-
comply with applicable laws, legal processes and regulatory requirements;
-
establish, exercise or defend legal claims and enforce our terms and policies; and
-
send marketing communications or measure advertising performance where permitted by law and, where required, with your consent.
If we need personal information to enter into or perform a contract with you and you do not provide it, we may be unable to process or fulfil your order.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the store, remember your choices, keep your basket and checkout working, protect the Services, understand site usage and, where enabled, provide analytics or advertising.
Essential cookies are necessary for the website and checkout to function. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential analytics or advertising cookies. You can manage your choices through our cookie banner or your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Services work.
6. Marketing Communications
We may send you marketing communications where you have consented or where otherwise permitted by law. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in a marketing email or by contacting us at contact@plantkeep.shop.
Opting out of marketing will not stop essential service messages, such as order confirmations, delivery updates, security notices or responses to your enquiries.
7. How We Share Personal Information
We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to the following recipients:
-
Shopify, which hosts our online store and provides ecommerce and checkout services.
-
Payment processors, banks and fraud-prevention providers involved in authorising payments and protecting transactions.
-
Delivery, fulfilment and logistics providers that deliver orders and process returns.
-
Technology and professional service providers, such as hosting, cloud storage, IT support, customer support, analytics, accounting, legal and insurance providers.
-
Marketing and advertising providers, where we use their services and where sharing is permitted by law and subject to any required consent.
-
Government bodies, regulators, courts, law-enforcement authorities or other parties where disclosure is required or permitted by law, necessary to protect rights or safety, or needed to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
-
A buyer, investor or successor organisation in connection with a proposed or completed sale, merger, restructuring or transfer of all or part of our business, subject to appropriate confidentiality and data-protection measures.
We may also share information when you direct us to do so or give us permission. We do not sell your personal information in exchange for money.
8. Relationship with Shopify
Our store is hosted by Shopify. Shopify collects and processes personal information about your access to and use of the Services so that it can provide and improve its platform, checkout, security and related services. Information submitted through our store may be transmitted to Shopify and other service providers, including providers located outside the United Kingdom.
In some situations, Shopify may act as an independent data controller for its own purposes. You can learn more by reading the Shopify Consumer Privacy Policy at https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy/consumers and by visiting Shopify's privacy portal at https://privacy.shopify.com/.
9. International Transfers
Some of our service providers, including Shopify, may store or process personal information outside the United Kingdom. Where personal information is transferred internationally, we take steps to ensure that an appropriate level of protection applies.
Where required, transfers are made using recognised safeguards, such as UK adequacy regulations, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the UK Addendum to approved standard contractual clauses, or another lawful transfer mechanism. You may contact us for more information about the safeguards relevant to your personal information.
10. Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide the Services, maintain business and transaction records, meet legal, tax and accounting requirements, resolve disputes, prevent fraud and enforce our agreements.
Retention periods depend on the type of information and the reason it was collected. For example, order, payment and accounting records may be kept for the period required by applicable UK law, which can generally be up to six years. We may keep information for longer where necessary for an ongoing dispute, legal claim, investigation or legal obligation. When information is no longer required, we will delete or anonymise it where reasonably practicable.
11. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against accidental or unlawful loss, misuse, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure. However, no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
You are responsible for keeping any account password confidential. Please do not send payment-card details or other sensitive information through ordinary email.
12. Third-Party Websites and Services
The Services may contain links to websites, applications or platforms operated by third parties. We do not control and are not responsible for their privacy, security or content. If you follow a third-party link, please review that party's privacy notice before providing personal information.
13. Children's Information
The Services are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age at which they may lawfully provide it. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
