WHO WE ARE

​

Edie & Joe. We are the operator of the website www.edieandjoe.com. We collect, use and are responsible for certain information about you. When we do so, we are regulated under the General Data Protection Regulation which applies across the European Union (including the United Kingdom) and we are responsible as 'controller' of that personal information for the purposes of those laws. The person responsible for how we handle personal information is Lauren Wroe lauren.edieandjoe@gmail.com

 

 

 

THE PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND USE

 

Personal information provided by you

When ordering a product or enquiring about our services from edieandjoe.com, we collect personal information when you provide it to us, such as your name, postal address, email address, phone numbers, payment details.

We may also collect personal information from you if you apply for a job with us or work for us for any period of time. In this context, personal information we gather may include: contact details, details of education, qualifications and skills, marital status, nationality, NI number, job title, and CV.

 

Personal information about other individuals

If you provide information on behalf of someone else as an alternate contact, referee or next of kin, you confirm that the other person has agreed this.

 

Sensitive personal information

We will not usually ask you to provide sensitive personal information (eg. Ethnic origin, political opinion, religious beliefs, physical or mental health). We will only ask you to provide sensitive personal information if we need to for a specific reason, for example, if we believe you are having difficulty dealing with your payments due to illness. If we request such information, we will explain why we are requesting it and how we intend to use it. We will only collect your sensitive personal information with your explicit consent.

We do not knowingly collect personal data relating to children under the age of 16. If you are a parent or guardian of a child under the age of 16 and think that we may have information relating to that child, please contact us. We will ask you to prove your relationship to the child but if you do so you may (subject to applicable law) request access to and deletion of that child’s personal data.

 

 

HOW AND WHEN DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM YOU?
