PRIVACY POLICY

At Out of Eden Limited, we are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy whenever we collect, process or store personal information about you. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) became law on 25 May 2018 and sets out the privacy rights for individuals and provides a strict framework within which commercial organisations can legally operate. This law won’t alter how we use information about you, but it will make it easier for you to know your many rights regarding your personal data.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU?

We obtain information directly from you when you order products from us, register for an online account, sign up for our electronic communications or ask to receive our catalogues. This information may include your name, gender, date of birth, billing/delivery address, order history, email and telephone number. We may also keep a record of information shared with us if you contact us by post or telephone and if you voluntarily choose to complete customer surveys, provide us with feedback or participate in any prize draws and competitions. We collect information about you if you accept the use of ‘cookies’ when browsing the Out of Eden website, (view our Cookies policy). This may include details of any search terms you’ve entered, purchases you made, items viewed or added to your basket, gift list and wish list choices, voucher redemptions, brands you show interest in, web pages you visit and how and when you contact us. Information gathered by the use of cookies in your web browser may also include information about your computer, such as your IP address, operating system and browser type. Cookies allow us to enable you to use our website efficiently.

HOW DO WE USE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT FROM YOU?

Most of the information we collect about you is to comply with our contractual obligations to you. Collecting your personal data during checkout when you buy from us using our website or by phone helps us to fulfil any orders you place with us, keep you informed about your order status, maintain, update and safeguard your account and respond efficiently to any future queries, refund requests or complaints you may have. In addition, we may use information gathered when you place an order, sign up for electronic communications, browse our website or choose to receive our catalogues to provide you with information about products or services which we feel may interest you. This information allows us to meet our legitimate interests as a business in understanding you better and providing you with the highest levels of service. It tells us what products to talk to you about and stops us from wasting your time unnecessarily with offers and promotions that are unlikely to be of interest. Information about your internet connection and browser, such as your IP address and the country and telephone code where your computer is located, is used to deliver the best possible web experience to you. It also lets us protect you – for example, by helping us to identify possible fraudulent logins from unexpected locations. Information such as this is stored as anonymised statistical data about our users' browsing actions and patterns, and will not identify you as an individual.

DO WE SHARE INFORMATION ABOUT YOU WITH ANY OTHER PARTIES?

We share your data with trusted third parties employed by us or our suppliers in countries within or outside the European Economic Area to meet our contractual obligations to you in terms of processing your orders. These include the designated parcel carriers who dispatch your order and the designated payment providers who help us process payments, prevent fraudulent transactions and reduce credit risk. We also share your information with IT companies who support our website and other business systems. You can rest assured that we provide these third parties only the information they need to perform their specific services. They will only use your data for the exact purposes we specify in our contract with them and we work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected at all times. We also ensure that if we stop using their services, any of your data held by them will either be deleted or rendered anonymous. We will also share your information with regulatory authorities such as HMRC to comply with any legal obligations (statutory and regulatory obligations) when required to do so relating to business generally, for example tax, bribery and fraud/crime prevention legislation.

HOW LONG WILL WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We keep your data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, and in line with any legal, statutory and regulatory obligations which we are required to meet as a business. For example, if your order included a warranty, the associated personal data will be kept until the end of the warranty period. In addition, personal information gathered to fulfill an order will be retained for seven years in order to comply with our legal and contractual obligations. At the end of the retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised (for example by aggregation with other data) so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning. As you’d expect, we reassess our need to use your personal information on a regular basis and dispose of information which is no longer required. Should an account that you have set up with us remain inactive for seven years, it will be deemed inactive and we will close it. Thereafter, any personal data associated with it will be anonymised.

HOW WILL WE KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOU?

We will use your personal data and details of your transactions to contact you by electronic means (e-mail) or by post with our latest news, products and services (including tailored special offers, discounts, promotions, events and competitions) on the basis of our legitimate business interests. Of course, you are free to opt out of receiving our marketing communications at any time. You can do this by simply emailing our Sales team on sales@outofeden.co.uk, or writing to us at Out of Eden Limited, Home Farm Buildings, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria CA17 4AP. You can also opt-out of future marketing communications by updating the settings in your online account if you have one, or clicking on the unsubscribe link that appears in every one of our email newsletters.

HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA SAFE?

We know that data security matters to all our customers. That’s why we treat your data with the utmost care and take all appropriate steps to protect it. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Access to your personal data is password-protected, and sensitive data (such as payment card information) is secured by SSL encryption. We secure access to all areas of our websites using ‘https’ technology. We regularly monitor our system for possible vulnerabilities and attacks, and we carry out testing to identify ways to further strengthen security.

WHAT RIGHTS DO YOU HAVE WITH RESPECT TO PERSONAL DATA HELD BY US?

Your personal data is safer than ever under the current GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations) which came into effect on 25 May 2018. These regulations redefine your rights as governed by the lawful basis for data processing used at Out of Eden – namely our contractual obligations to you, our legitimate interests as a business, and our legal or statutory obligations under law. Your rights are summarised as follows:

Consent: You may withdraw your consent to our processing of your personal information for a particular purpose at any stage by emailing our sales team at sales@outofeden.co.uk, calling us on 01768 372939 or writing to us at Out of Eden Limited, Home Farm Buildings, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria CA17 4AP. However, please note that we may be obliged to retain your personal information where we have a legal or contractual obligation to do so. Our processing in that respect will be limited to what is necessary in furtherance of those interests or obligations. Withdrawal of consent will not have any effect on the lawfulness of any processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Access: You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you. To ask for your information please contact by emailing us at gdpr@outofeden.co.uk, by post at Out of Eden Limited, Home Farm Buildings, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria CA17 4AP or call us on 01768 372939. We shall respond promptly within one calendar month from the point of receiving the request and all necessary information to process that request from you. If you are not satisfied with our resolution then you can contact the ICO by calling 0303 123 1113, or by going online to www.ico.org.uk/concerns.
Rectification: You have the right to correct your personal data when incorrect, out of date or incomplete. To ask for your information to be amended please contact us by email at gdpr@outofeden.co.uk, call us on 01768 372939 or by post at Out of Eden Limited, Home Farm Buildings, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria CA17 4AP.
Restriction: Individuals can request that Out of Eden limits the way it uses their personal data. Out of Eden is not automatically obligated to delete the data. However, we will refrain from processing it in certain situations: If the data is inaccurate (during the verification process) If the individual does not want the data to be erased and requests restriction (which is different from the right to be erased) We no longer need the data, but the individual wants the data to be preserved so a legal claim can be exercised When taking measures to verify the data erasure request Once the data is restricted, we will cease to process it unless we have your consent, we need it for legal claims or to protect the rights of other individuals.
Object: You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you, including any personal profiling, where we lack compelling legitimate grounds which override your interests, rights and freedoms, unless this relates to processing that is necessary for the fulfilment of our contractual obligations to you or our legal and statutory obligations.
Erasure: You have the right to ask that we erase your personal data from our systems.

HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US?

You can easily contact us by either emailing us at gdpr@outofeden.co.uk, calling us on 01768 372939 or by post at Out of Eden Limited, Home Farm Buildings, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria CA17 4AP. We hope that you’ll talk to us first should you have any questions, comments or concerns regarding this privacy policy. Should you do so, we’ll do our best to resolve the matter to your complete satisfaction. Alternatively, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office. You can contact them by calling 0303 123 1113, or by going online to www.ico.org.uk/concerns.

Complaints Policy

Out of Eden is committed to providing our customers with the best possible service. Unfortunately, from time to time, things can go wrong. One of the ways in which we can continue to improve our service is by listening and responding to the views of our customers, and in particular by responding positively to complaints, and by putting mistakes right. Therefore we aim to ensure that:

We treat a complaint as a clear expression of dissatisfaction with our service which calls for an immediate response
You can expect to be treated with courtesy, respect and fairness at all times. We expect that you will also treat our team dealing with your complaint with the same courtesy, respect and fairness
We deal with the complaint promptly and confidentially
We respond the right way – for example, with an explanation, an apology where we have got things wrong, or information on any action taken etc
We learn from complaints and use them to improve our service for the future.

We recognise that many concerns will be raised informally, and dealt with quickly. Our aim is to resolve informal concerns quickly, either verbally or by email. An informal approach is appropriate when it can be achieved. But if concerns cannot be satisfactorily resolved informally, then the formal complaints procedure should be followed. The formal complaints procedure is intended to ensure that all complaints are handled fairly, consistently, and wherever possible resolved to the customer’s satisfaction. Out of Eden’s responsibility will be to:

Acknowledge the formal complaint in writing
Respond within a stated period of time
Deal reasonably and sensitively with the complaint

Formal Complaints Procedure

If you are unable to resolve an issue informally, you should write to Out of Eden either by letter to the Managing Director, Out of Eden Ltd, Home Farm Buildings, Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria CA17 4AP or email to sales@outofeden.co.uk. Your correspondence should set out all the details of your complaint. You can expect your complaint to be acknowledged within three working days of receipt.
Out of Eden’s aim is to resolve all matters as quickly as possible. However, inevitably some issues will be more complex and therefore may require longer to be fully investigated. Consequently, timescales given for handling and responding to complaints are indicative. If a matter requires more detailed investigation, you will receive an interim response describing what is being done to deal with the matter, and when a full reply can be expected.

Ref: PO07

Safety Data Sheets

Safety Data Sheets for all cleaning products on www.outofeden.co.uk are available by emailing us at sales@outofeden.co.uk with details of the product. Our customer services team will be able to look at your purchase history and determine which version you require and email it to you.

Please note that toiletries products are governed by different legislation and are exempt from requiring a Safety Data Sheet. Out of Eden toiletries do not contain any hazardous properties and are considered safe when used appropriately for their intended purpose. If you feel you need information on how to store, use and dispose of your toiletries safely, please go through the above channel and we will be able to offer you advice.

Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment

Please help us minimise the effect we have on the environment by recycling your waste electrical goods. The WEEE logo (shown below) on the product or on its box indicates that this product must not be disposed of with your other general waste. We aim to encourage safe recycling of such waste, and you can help too, by contacting your local authorities who can advise you of a local approved waste disposal company who can collect your electrical waste. Alternatively you can return the item/items to Out of Eden and we will ensure correct disposal in accordance with the WEEE regulations.
