Welcome to Embassystamps.co.uk. We sell our products to you subject to the conditions set out on this page.

Please read these conditions carefully before using the embassystamps.co.uk Web site. By using the embassystamps.co.uk Web site, you signify your agreement to be bound by these conditions.

 

1. Privacy
Please review our Privacy Policy, which also governs your visit to Embassystamps.co.uk, to understand our practices.

1.a When do we collect your personal data?
When you visit any of our websites, and use your account to buy products and services
When you create an account with us.
When you purchase a product or service at a show or by phone but don’t have (or don’t use) an account.

1.b What sort of personal data do we collect?
If you have a web account with us: your name, billing/delivery address, orders and receipts, email and telephone number. For your security, we’ll also keep an encrypted record of your login password. For example, we collect notes from our conversations with you, details of any complaints or comments you make, details of purchases you made, and how and when you contact us.

1.c How and why do we use your personal data?
We want to give you the best possible customer experience. One way to achieve that is to get the richest picture we can of who you are by combining the data we have about you. We then use this to offer you promotions, products and services that are most likely to interest you.
The data privacy law allows this as part of our legitimate interest in understanding our customers and providing the highest levels of service.
Remember, if you choose not to share your personal data with us, or refuse certain contact permissions, we might not be able to provide some services you’ve asked for.
For example, if you’ve asked us to let you know when an item comes back into stock or items  on a ‘wants list’, we can’t do that if you’ve withdrawn your general consent to hear from us.

1.d How can you stop the use of your personal data for direct marketing?
There are several ways you can stop direct marketing communications from us:
Click the ‘unsubscribe’ link in any email communication that we send you. We will then stop any further emails from that particular division.
If you have an account, log in into the ‘My Account’ area and change your preferences.
Write to Embassy Philatelists – Data Team, PO BOX 161, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19 3SU
