Privacy Policy

We at Posh Frocks and Wellies dislike receiving unsolicited spam email as much as anyone, so we are committed to keeping your personal data safe and secure as a top priority. To maintain that commitment we have updated this policy in readiness for the introduction of the new data protection law (GDPR) on 25th May 2018.

GDPR doesn’t change what we use your personal data for, but it does makes it easier for you to find out how we use and protect your information and for you to be assured it’s only used for what you intended.

Your personal data is at the heart of us to providing our services to you; it includes managing the development of quotations and invoicing where needed. Our local data protection procedure (available to you on request) has assessed that the lawful basis for managing and storing your data is as a legitimate interest.

Your personal data also lets us get in touch whenever we have offers, events or related information that we think might be of interest to you. For us to use your data in this way, we need to gain your consent as a lawful basis. We will seek this consent via enquiry form and email exchanges, the record of this consent will be stored and you have the right to withdraw your consent upon request.
