Privacy Policy

I am committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. This privacy policy sets out how I use and protect any personal data which you give me when you use this website. 

What data do we collect?

We collect the following data:

  • Personal identification information (Name, email address, phone number)
  • Demographic information such as postcode, preferences and interests

Legitimate reasons for processing your personal information

We only collect and use your personal information when we have a legitimate reason for doing so. In which instance, we only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary to provide our services to you. 

How do we collect your data?

You directly provide us with most of the data we collect. We collect data and process data when you:

  • Register online or place an order for any of our products or services.
  • Voluntarily complete a customer survey or provide feedback on any of our message boards or via email.
  • Use or view our website via your browser’s cookies.

How will we use your data?

We collect your data so that we can:

  • Process your order and manage your account
  • Email you with special offers on other products and services we think you might like
  • Inform our business development and the services which we provide

When we process any online orders, our payment services may send your data to, and also use the resulting information from, credit reference agencies to prevent fraudulent purchases.

How do we store your data?

We use data encryption and GDPR-compliant remote cloud storage to give the best possible protection for your data. This is backed up by our hosting platform, and its own GDPR compliance framework. 

We make every effort to protect your data and use suitable physical and electronic procedures to safeguard and secure the information collected online. 

While we do our best to protect the personal information you provide us with, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure and no one can guarantee absolute data security. 

You are responsible for selecting any password and its overall security strength, and ensuring the security of your own information within the bounds of our services e.g. ensuring you do not make personal information publicly available via our platform. 

We keep your personal information only for as long as we need to. This may depend on what we are using your information for, in accordance with this privacy statement. If necessary, we may retain your personal information for our compliance with a legal, accounting or reporting obligation. 

Marketing

Occasionally, we may send you information about products and services of ours that we think you might like.

If you have agreed to receive marketing, you may always opt out at a later date.

You have the right at any time to stop Ánradh from contacting you for marketing purposes.

If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please email info@anradh.ie

Third Parties

We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties.. We may use your personal information to send you promotional information about third parties which we think you may find interesting if you tell us that you wish this to happen.

Contact forms

We use contact forms as a communication channel and will capture your email address and name, along with time of submission.

This information will not be used for marketing purposes or passed on to any third party, unless given express permission through continued email contact.

What is Data Protection? 

Data is the means by which the privacy rights of individuals are safeguarded in relation to the processing of their personal data. The Data Protection Acts 1988 & 2003 confer rights on individuals as well as placing responsibilities on those persons processing personal data.

What is GDPR?

GDPR is European Legislation that affects anyone living within the EU and any organisation that holds the data of EU residents. GDPR replaces the Data Protection Acts 1988 & 2003. GDPR is designed to strengthen Data Protection and to give all EU citizens more control over how organisations use their data. Fines have also been introduced for organisations that do not comply.

What is Data?
