Privacy Notice UK Website

We may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie file which is stored on the hard drive of your computer.

They help us to improve the website and to deliver a better and more personalised service. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Your IP address
  • Your operating system

  • The name of your internet service provider
  • The date, time and duration of your visit

The purpose of this is for system administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers. This contains statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns and does not identify any individual.

The website may, from time to time, contain links to and from the websites of our partner networks, advertisers and affiliates. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that these websites have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.

You may refuse to accept cookies by activating the setting on your browser which allows you to refuse the setting of cookies. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of the website. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you access the website.

How we use your information

Our communications are designed to tell you about the benefits we can offer so that you have access to our best deals. We use the information we have about you to tailor the content and try to ensure that the offers are as relevant to you as possible. Under the Data Protection Legislation, this might qualify as profiling. If you do not wish us to use your data for this purpose, please fill in the contact us form or email us at hello@www.staging.ecoegg.com

Security of your Personal Data

Our website uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates that ensure your data is encrypted when transmitted over the Internet. We have upgraded our site to ensure that all pages are secure in line with the latest best practise. When you are in the secure section of the site, a padlock symbol appears in your browser. In most web browsers this appears to the right or left of the address bar at the top depending upon the web browser you are using.

‘Verified by Visa’ and ‘MasterCard SecureCode’ are additional security measures for customers using payment cards from Visa and MasterCard. We also provide the option for you to pay securely using Paypal. This allows you to confirm your identity before purchase as a protection from unauthorised use of your credit or debit card when shopping online. For more details, please visit Visa, MasterCard or Paypal online or contact your card issuer.

We strongly recommend to keep your password safe and not to divulge your password anyone else under any circumstances. Please remember to log out of your session at the end and to close down the session. This is especially important if you are using a shared computer in a internet café or library.

We hold a SSL certificate from Sectigo (formerly Comodo CA) which is a well-established and respected certification authority: https://sectigo.com/

Our payment page is hosted by leading payment providers PayPal and Stripe and we do not hold your card details on our servers. For more detail, please visit their websites at https://www.paypal.com/ and https://stripe.com/gb/

Data pools are groups of retailers who share information on what their customers buy. This pooled information is analysed to understand consumer’s wider buying patterns. From this information, customers are sent tailored communications containing suitable offers that should be of interest to them based on what they like to buy. We do not share email addresses for the purposes of data pooling.
