Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy and are determined to protect your personal data. The purpose of this privacy notice is to inform you as to how we use and look after your personal data when you visit our website www.tantruth.co.uk regardless of where you visit it from.  We’ll also tell you about your privacy rights and how the data protection law protects you.

This privacy notice aims to give you information on how we collect and process your personal data through use of our website and any interactions with us offline (for example if you purchase our products either onsite at an event, or by contacting our Studio), including any data you may provide through this website when you purchase our products, sign-up to our newsletter, or complete any online forms.

This website is not intended for children and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children.

You must read this privacy notice together with any other privacy notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data about you, so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your data.  This privacy notice supplements the other notices and is not intended to override them.

1. Personal Data We Collect About You

Personal data, or personal information, means any information about an individual from which that person can be identified.  You can find out more about personal data from the Information Commissioners Office.

We may collect, use, store and transfer different kinds of personal data about you, which we have grouped together as follows:
Identity Data - Title, First Name, Last Name, Username.
Contact Data - Billing Address, Delivery Address, Email, Telephone Numbers.
Profile Data - Order History, Username, Passwords.
Technical Data - Referring websites, IP address, Browser Type.
Marketing Data - Communication / Opt-in Status.
Financial Data - Debit or Credit Card Details.

We also collect, use and share Aggregated Data such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose.  Aggregated Data may be derived from your personal data, but is not considered personal data in law as this data does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity.  For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy notice.

We do not collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you that includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health and genetic and biometric data.  Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.

Third-party links outside of our control

This website may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins and applications.  Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you.  We do not control these third-party websites and are not responsible for their privacy statements.

When you leave our website, we encourage you to read the privacy notice of each website you visit.

If you fail to provide personal data

Where we need to collect your personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you (for example, to provide you with the goods you are trying to order).  In this case, we may reluctantly have to cancel your order, but we will notify you if this is the case at the time.

2. How We Collect Your Personal Data

We collect personal data from you in the following ways:

Website Purchases

By ordering through the website you will provide your billing contact details – your name, billing address, phone number and email address.  You have the option to supply a different delivery address and specify a different contact name at that delivery address.  The payment data you provide when making an online purchase through our website is processed externally by SagePay who provide the payment gateway for this site.  Further information on how SagePay process and use your data can be viewed at https://www.sagepay.co.uk/policies.

Offline Purchases

Any purchase not completed through the website is classified as an offline purchase for the purposes of this document. For example, if you should purchase our products through one of our onsite photo centres at events, or by way of contacting our Studio by telephone or via email, or via one of our advance online booking forms. We will collect the same personal data from you as we collect with an online purchase. Offline purchases are processed on our debit/credit card terminal. Any paperwork created when processing the order is only kept whilst the order is being processed internally and is then destroyed. We also destroy payment slips from the card terminal once the payment is authorised.

Newsletter Subscription / Online Account / Online Forms

You may also provide your personal data including name, email address and phone number when setting up an account online, subscribing to our newsletter or using our online photo request form.

We receive Technical Data from various third parties such as analytics providers (Google Analytics). This anonymous data is used to improve website usability, identify and resolve technical issues and assist customers experiencing technical issues. We do not pass on data attained from analytics providers to third parties.

We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to.  Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances.

Legitimate Interest

This means the interest of our business in conducting and managing our business to enable us to give you the best service/product and the most secure experience.  We make sure we consider and balance any potential impact on you (both positive and negative) and your rights, before we process your personal data for our legitimate interests. We do not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

This means processing your personal data where it is necessary for compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation that we are subject to.

5. Data Security
