Where permitted by law, we may send information about Love My Uniform products, services, promotions and relevant business offers.
Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on consent or legitimate interests.
Electronic direct marketing is also subject to applicable UK privacy and electronic communications rules.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link or contacting hello@lovemyuniform.com.
Website analytics
We may process website usage information to understand how visitors use our website and to improve its performance, content and customer experience.
Where consent is legally required for non-essential cookies or similar technologies, those technologies will only be used in accordance with the choices made through our consent controls.
5. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies.
Some technologies are necessary for functions such as security, shopping baskets, checkout and customer accounts.
Other technologies may support analytics, advertising or personalisation.
Where UK law requires consent before a non-essential technology is stored or accessed on your device, we will use the website's consent controls to obtain and manage that choice.
You can review or change available cookie choices using the cookie preferences provided on the website.

We require personal information to be handled appropriately when it is shared with service providers.
7. SHOPIFY
Our ecommerce store is hosted using Shopify.
Shopify processes personal information in connection with the operation, security and improvement of the ecommerce services used by Love My Uniform.
Shopify may also process certain information for its own purposes in accordance with its applicable privacy documentation and services enabled on our store.
Where Shopify or related services use cookies or similar non-essential technologies for which UK law requires consent, their use is subject to the applicable consent mechanism.
8. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS
Some organisations that provide services to us may process personal information outside the United Kingdom.
Where a transfer of personal information is subject to UK international-transfer restrictions, we will use an appropriate legal mechanism where required.
Depending on the destination and circumstances, this may include UK adequacy regulations, approved contractual safeguards or another permitted transfer mechanism.
You may contact us at hello@lovemyuniform.com if you would like further information about safeguards relevant to your personal information.
9. HOW LONG WE KEEP PERSONAL INFORMATION
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and for applicable legal, accounting, tax, contractual and regulatory requirements.
The relevant retention period depends on factors including:
the nature of the information;
the reason it was collected;
whether an account or customer relationship remains active;
legal and tax record-keeping requirements;
the possibility of a complaint or dispute; and
security or fraud-prevention requirements.
When information is no longer reasonably required, we will delete, anonymise or otherwise dispose of it as appropriate.
