Information provided to third parties:
This website contains links to sites over which we have no control. These sites may have information practices, which differ from those, described here and you are advised to consult the privacy notices of those sites before giving any personal information.
Third Parties
For the avoidance of doubt, we do not and never shall sell your personal data to third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.
We may pass your personal data to third parties for the provision of services on our behalf (for example processing your payment or using a mail system to send newsletters). However, we will only ever share information about you that is necessary to provide the service and we have specific contracts in place, which ensure your personal data is secure.
We may share your information if we are acquired by a third party and therefore your data will be deemed an asset of the business. In these circumstances, we may disclose your personal data to the prospective buyer of our business, subject to both parties entering into appropriate confidentiality undertakings. Similarly, we may share your personal data if we are under a duty to disclose data in order to comply with any legal obligation or to protect the rights, property, or safety of TechHighStreet, our customers, or others. This includes but is not limited to exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection, credit risk reduction and dispute policies. However, we will take steps with the aim of ensuring that your privacy rights continue to be protected.
Security:
When you place orders or access your account information, we offer the use of a secure server. The secure server software (SSL) encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. Furthermore, as required by the UK Data Protection Legislation, we follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access. Our security procedures mean that we may occasionally request proof of identity before we are able to disclose sensitive information to you.
If you do not wish to receive correspondence from us:
We will not contact you for marketing purposes unless you have given us your prior consent.
You may decide you do not wish to receive e-mails, newsletters or information about promotions or competitions from us. If you would rather not then please do not tick the appropriate box when you register with us, or alternatively click the "unsubscribe" link at the bottom of the newsletters. Alternatively you can email or ring us requesting deletion of your account.
Where do we store your personal data?
All information you provide to us is stored on our secured servers. The server is only accessible by authorised TechHighStreet personnel.
As the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site and any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our website, you are responsible for keeping the password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
We must advise that this policy is subject to change, so please check our website on a regular basis for any further changes.
