Who we share information with

- Shopify, which powers our online store. You can read how Shopify uses personal information here: https://www.shopify.com/legal/privacy.
- Klaviyo, which we use for email sign-up forms and marketing emails: https://www.klaviyo.com/legal/privacy.

We may also share personal information where the law requires it, to respond to a lawful request, or to protect our rights.
Marketing and advertising
We only send you marketing emails if you have signed up or otherwise agreed where the law requires it, and you can unsubscribe at any time. We do not sell your personal information.
If we use advertising or analytics services that use cookies, we will ask for your consent first where the law requires it, and you can change your choice at any time. You can also manage advertising preferences directly with providers, for example:
- Facebook / Meta: https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads
- Google: https://adssettings.google.com
- Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out: https://optout.aboutads.info/
How we use personal information
We use personal information to run the Site and provide our services to you, including offering products for sale, processing payments, making and delivering your order, answering your messages and, where you have agreed, keeping you up to date with new stories, products and offers.
Lawful basis
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), and the EU GDPR where it applies, we rely on the following lawful bases:
- performing our contract with you, for example to process and deliver your order;
- your consent, for example for marketing emails and non-essential cookies;
- complying with our legal obligations, for example keeping records for tax purposes;
- our legitimate interests in running and improving the Site and preventing fraud, where these are not overridden by your rights and interests.
Retention
When you place an order through the Site, we keep your personal information for our records unless and until you ask us to erase it, subject to any legal requirement for us to keep certain records. See “Your rights” below.
Automated decision-making
Our store platform Shopify uses limited automated decision-making to help prevent fraud, which does not have a legal or similarly significant effect on you. This includes temporarily blocking IP addresses linked to repeated failed transactions (for a small number of hours) and temporarily blocking cards linked to those IP addresses (for a small number of days).
Your rights
You have the right to ask for access to the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected, updated or erased, to object to or restrict how we use it, to withdraw consent at any time, and to receive a copy to move to another service. To make a request, email info@euk.one.
Your personal information is processed by Shopify initially in Ireland and may be transferred outside the UK and Europe for storage and further processing, including to Canada and the United States. For more information on how these transfers are protected, see Shopify’s guidance: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/your-account/privacy/GDPR.
If you are a resident of California, you also have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, and to designate an authorised agent to make a request for you. Please contact us using the details above.

Some of the services named in this policy (for example Klaviyo and Judge.me) may also set their own cookies or similar technologies. Where the law requires it, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies.
The length of time that a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies last until you stop browsing and persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Most of the cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device.
You can control and manage cookies in various ways. Please keep in mind that removing or blocking cookies can negatively impact your user experience and parts of our website may no longer be fully accessible.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether or not to accept cookies through your browser controls, often found in your browser’s “Tools” or “Preferences” menu. For more information on how to modify your browser settings or how to block, manage or filter cookies can be found in your browser’s help file or through such sites as: www.allaboutcookies.org.
Additionally, please note that blocking cookies may not completely prevent how we share information with third parties such as our advertising partners. To exercise your rights or opt-out of certain uses of your information by these parties, please see the “Marketing and advertising” section above.
Do Not Track
Please note that because there is no consistent industry understanding of how to respond to “Do Not Track” signals, we do not alter our data collection and usage practices when we detect such a signal from your browser.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes to our practices or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons.
Complaints
If you would like to make a complaint, please contact us by email or by post using the details under “Contact” above.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO): https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/, or to your local data protection authority.
