For example, we need your name, delivery address and order information to process and deliver your purchase.

Legal Obligation

We process and retain certain information where necessary to comply with legal obligations.

  • Maintaining website and information security;
  • Preventing fraud;
  • Understanding business performance;
  • Protecting our legal rights; and

Where required, we may rely on your consent.

This may apply, for example, to certain marketing communications and the use of certain non-essential cookies or tracking technologies.

Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw your consent at any time.

7. Marketing

We may send you information about KinkRooms products, promotions, offers and news where we are legally permitted to do so.

Where consent is required, we will obtain it before sending marketing communications.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by:

Stopping marketing communications will not prevent us from sending essential communications concerning orders, payments, deliveries, returns or your customer account.

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

9. Shopify

Our online store is hosted using Shopify.

Shopify provides the ecommerce technology that enables us to operate our online shop.

When you browse KinkRooms, create an account or place an order, personal information may therefore be processed through Shopify's systems to provide ecommerce functionality, process transactions, maintain security, prevent fraud and provide related services.

Shopify may process information in countries outside the United Kingdom. Where international transfers occur, they are subject to applicable data protection requirements and safeguards.

10. Payment Providers

We use third-party payment providers to process customer payments.

When you make a payment, information may be provided directly to the relevant payment provider.

The payment provider will process your information in accordance with its own privacy practices and applicable law.

We recommend reviewing the privacy information provided by the payment provider you choose to use.

This may include:

  • Your name;
  • Delivery address;
  • Telephone number;
  • Email address; and
  • Information required to identify and deliver your parcel.

We only provide information reasonably necessary for delivery and associated services.

12. Who Else We May Share Personal Information With

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share personal information with organisations that help us operate KinkRooms, including:

  • Shopify and ecommerce providers;
  • Payment processors;
  • Banks and financial-service providers;
  • Couriers and postal services;
  • Warehousing or fulfilment providers;
  • IT and website providers;
  • Email and marketing providers;
  • Analytics providers;

  • Regulators, government bodies, courts and law-enforcement agencies where required; and
  • A purchaser, investor or adviser in connection with a genuine sale, restructuring or transfer of all or part of our business, subject to appropriate safeguards.

Where another organisation processes information on our behalf, we take appropriate steps to require the information to be protected.

13. Discretion and the Nature of Our Products

We recognise that KinkRooms sells intimate and adult products and that our customers may place particular importance on discretion.

We take reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of customer and order information.

Information about the specific products you purchase is only shared where reasonably necessary to process your order, provide our services, comply with the law or otherwise for a purpose described in this Privacy Policy.

We do not sell customer information to third parties.

14. International Transfers

Some of our service providers may process or store personal information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, appropriate measures will be used where required by applicable UK data protection legislation.

Depending on the destination and circumstances, these may include UK adequacy regulations or approved contractual safeguards for international transfers.

You can contact us if you would like further information about safeguards relevant to your personal information.

15. How Long We Keep Personal Information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including meeting legal, accounting, taxation, fraud-prevention and reporting requirements.

The exact period will depend on the type of information and why we hold it.

When deciding how long to retain information, we consider factors including:

  • Our legal and regulatory obligations;
  • Accounting and taxation requirements;
  • The nature and sensitivity of the information;
  • Why the information was collected;
  • Whether we need the information to provide services;
  • Fraud-prevention requirements; and
  • Whether information may be required to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

When personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to delete, destroy or anonymise it.

16. Security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information from:

  • Unauthorised access;
  • Accidental loss;
  • Improper disclosure;
  • Misuse;
  • Alteration; and
  • Destruction.

Access to personal information is restricted to people and organisations with a legitimate need to access it.

However, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

17. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on the circumstances and the lawful basis being used, you may have rights including:

Right of Access

You may ask us for a copy of personal information we hold about you.

Right to Rectification

You may ask us to correct inaccurate personal information or complete information that is incomplete.

Right to Erasure

In certain circumstances, you may ask us to delete your personal information.

Right to Restrict Processing

In certain circumstances, you may ask us to restrict how we process your information.

Right to Object

In certain circumstances, you may object to our processing of your personal information.

Right to Data Portability

In certain circumstances, you may be entitled to receive personal information you provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or have it transferred to another organisation.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where we rely upon consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

Not all rights apply in every situation.

18. Your Right to Object to Direct Marketing

You have the right to object at any time to the use of your personal information for direct marketing purposes.

If you ask us to stop using your information for direct marketing, we will comply with your request in accordance with applicable law.

You can unsubscribe using the link provided in our marketing emails or contact us at:

info@kinkrooms.co.uk

19. Exercising Your Rights

To exercise a data protection right, please contact:

Email: info@kinkrooms.co.uk

Please explain which right you wish to exercise and provide sufficient information for us to identify the relevant information.

We may need to ask for reasonable information to confirm your identity before fulfilling a request.

We will respond within the time limits required by applicable data protection law.

You will not normally have to pay a fee to exercise your data protection rights, although the law permits fees or refusal in certain limited circumstances.

20. Information Required to Place an Order

Certain information is required for us to enter into and perform our contract with you.

For example, we normally need appropriate contact, delivery and payment information to process an online order.

If you do not provide information that is necessary to process your order, we may be unable to accept or fulfil it.

21. Automated Decision-Making and Fraud Prevention

Our ecommerce, payment or fraud-prevention providers may use automated systems to assess transactions for potential fraud, security threats or payment risk.

Where applicable, such processing is undertaken to protect customers, KinkRooms and payment providers from fraudulent or unauthorised transactions.

Where UK data protection law gives you specific rights in relation to a solely automated decision that produces legal or similarly significant effects, those rights will apply.

22. Children's Privacy

KinkRooms is an adults-only retailer and our adult products are not intended for children.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children for the purpose of selling adult products.

Customers purchasing age-restricted products must meet the applicable age requirements.

If we discover that we have collected personal information from a child in circumstances where we should not have done so, we will take appropriate steps to deal with that information.

23. Third-Party Websites

Our website may contain links to websites operated by third parties.

We are not responsible for the privacy, security or content of external websites.

If you follow a link to another website, we recommend reviewing that organisation's privacy information.

24. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to:

  • Our business;
  • Our website;
  • Our service providers;
  • The ways in which we process information; or
  • Applicable laws and regulatory guidance.
