  • Email signups for our mailing list, with timestamped consent.
  • Anonymous analytics (page views, device type) — see our Cookies policy.

What we do with it

We use your data only to fulfil orders, file G98 notifications on your behalf, provide customer support, and (with your consent) send you product updates. We do not sell your data to anyone.

Who we share it with

  • Your local Distribution Network Operator (G98 filing only).
  • Our payment processor (order processing only).

How long we keep it

Order and tax records: 7 years (HMRC requirement). G98 application data: indefinitely, in case a DNO needs to verify the original filing. Mailing list: until you unsubscribe.
