Privacy Policy
Treeblocks.co.uk
are committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. This policy
explains how we use the information we collect about you and the procedures
that we have in place to safeguard your privacy.
The information we collect and how we use it
When you register with
Treeblocks.co.uk
and/or place an order, we need to know your name, delivery address, credit
or debit card number and expiry date, e-mail address and telephone number.
This information allows us to fulfil your order and notify you of the
status of your order.
We may also ask you to give us optional contact information, for example
your phone/fax.
If you subscribe to our mailing lists for new release and other information,
you will be asked to specify the areas in which you are interested so
that we can tailor the information which we send to you to cover the topics
and merchandise which we believe you might be interested in.
We may also use your information for the purpose of providing you with
information about any special offers or features of our web site which
we think may be of interest to you and for related marketing purposes.
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and
to administer our web site. Your IP address is also used to help identify
you and your details on our database.
We monitor customer traffic on an aggregate basis in order to help us
develop and improve our web site for the benefit of our customers. In
order to enhance your use of the web site you will be given a session
ID which will only last for the duration of that visit to the site. Each
time you visit the site you will have a different session ID.
By submitting your information you consent to the use of that information
as set out in this Policy. If we change our Privacy Policy we will post
the changes on this page so that you may be aware of them. We will also
e-mail you should we make any changes and give you a chance to ask us
not to use your information in that way. Because the Internet infrastructure
is global, and it is not possible to predict the routes that information
sent over the Internet will take, the information you provide may be transferred
temporarily via a route which takes it outside the European Economic Area
as it passes between you and us. By submitting your information you consent
to this transfer.

Security of your information
We follow strict security procedures in the storage and

which is password protected and hidden behind a firewall from the outside
world. We use secure socket layer software (SSL) to encrypt all of your

internal procedures cover the storage, access and disclosure of your information.
Non-disclosure to third parties
Unless we have your express consent, we will only disclose your personal
data to third parties if this is required for the purpose of completing
your transaction with us. This is subject to the proviso that we may disclose
or transfer your data to a partner company where you have supplied information
via a site which is co-branded with that partner company or to members
of our own group. If personally identifying data about you may be shared
with a partner company, we will tell you before we collect or transfer
the data so that you may opt out of this transfer if you wish.
We use your information only as set out in this Policy and will not sell,
rent or pass your information on to others for marketing purposes without
your express consent.
Treeblocks.co.uk
may however provide aggregate statistics about our customers, sales traffic
patterns and related site information to reputable third-party vendors
and relevant affiliate partners, but these statistics will include no
personally identifying information. We may also release account information
where we believe in good faith that this release is reasonably necessary
to comply with the law.
