We are firmly committed to respecting your privacy and complying with applicable data protection and privacy laws.

We have provided this Privacy Policy Statement to help you understand how We collect, use and protect your information when you visit/use Our website and when you generally use Our products and services. If you do submit personal information by ordering products, services or completing a web form registration, for example, you can be assured that We will only use your personal information for the purpose intended, as illustrated below.

We wish to help you make informed decisions, so please take a few moments to read the sections below and learn how We use your personal information.

We endeavour to collect and use your personal information only with your knowledge and consent.

On Our website, We may collect your personal information for the following:

  • Product & Services Sales.
  • General Enquiries.
  • Mailing List Sign-Ups.
  • Submit a Job Application.
  • Questionnaires or Surveys.

The type of personal information We collect could include, for example, your name and postal address, date of birth, telephone number, email address or other general information such as lifestyle information collected in surveys or questionnaires.

We will not process any personal data collected through the Website unless We have first told you that We are going to do so, and it is clear how We will use it.

Non-Personal Information Collection

We may collect information about the software on your computer (your browser version etc.) and your IP address (your connection with the internet) in order to improve your interaction with the Website. This may happen automatically without you being aware of it.

We may use cookies (small text files which We and other website operators store on your computer when you visit our websites) to deliver a better and more personalised interaction. They enable Us to recognise you when you return to the Website, store information about your preferences, and improve the way your searches are processed. This helps Us to better manage and develop Our website, to provide you with a more enjoyable, customised service and experience in the future, and to help Us develop and deliver better products and services tailored to your individual interests and needs.

Cookies also enable Us to generate statistics about the number of visitors We have and how they use the Website and the internet to improve the service We provide. You can set your browser to reject Our cookies if you wish (you should consult your browser help section for details), but this might restrict your use of the Website and other websites. For more information about cookies, please see our cookies statement.

From time to time, if you consented accordingly, We may also store and use your information to contact you for market research and marketing purposes. We may contact you by email, phone or mail.

How will we use your information?

We use personal data for the following purposes:

  • Processing orders.
  • Managing or administering your account.
  • To provide you with the services you have requested through the Website.
  • Responding to complaints or account enquiries.
  • To respond to requests for information submitted by you on the website.
  • For research purposes and to improve the services We offer.
  • In order to comply with Our legal obligations.

In order to protect Our contractual and other rights. For example, we may pass your details onto a third party should We believe that you have used another person’s credit card fraudulently.

We may also undertake market and product analysis based on your use of Our services and products and contact you with information about new developments, products, services and special offers by post, telephone and automated means such as Email and the internet (subject to any preferences expressed by you).

If you have consented to receive details of products and services, events and training or have signed up to Our newsletter, you can contact Us at any time to have your details removed from lists used by Us for any or all of those purposes.

To update your marketing preferences please email lisa@iceagency.org.uk using the email address you registered with and, if applicable, quote your account number in the body of the email and tell Us what you want Us to do – i.e. ‘I wish to opt out of receiving your newsletter’.

Disclosure of Your Personal Data

We will not sell or pass your personal information to third parties, unless you have given Us permission or unless it is strictly necessary to deliver products or services ordered or used by you and you are notified beforehand.

For example, we may disclose your data to a credit card company to validate your credit card details and obtain payment when you buy a product or service.

We may be obliged to disclose personal data to a third party if We have a legal or regulatory obligation to do so, for example to comply with a court order, or meet obligations in accordance with applicable law.

Other people, not Us, control these platforms. We are not responsible for this kind of sharing. We recommend you should review the terms and conditions and privacy policies of the social media platforms you use. That way, you will understand how they will use your information, what information relating to you they will place in the public domain, and how you can stop them from doing so if you are unhappy about it.

Any blog, review or other posts or comments you make about Us, Our products and services on any of Our blogs, reviews or user community services will be shared with all other members of that service and the public at large.

Any comments you make on these services and on social media in general must be not offensive, insulting or defamatory. You are responsible for ensuring that any comments you make comply with any relevant policy on acceptable use of those services.

How long do we keep your information for?

In most cases, this means We will keep your information for as long as you continue to use Our services and are deemed a client, and for a reasonable period of time afterwards if you stop doing so, to see if We can persuade you to come back to Us.

After that We will delete it other than where We lawfully can keep any data for audit or legal reasons.
