How do we collect information?

Information can be collected in the following ways:

·       If you contact us via our enquiry form.

·       If you contact us via email

·       If you contact us via phone call.

Anonymous data (relating to your computer/device, not to you personally) is also collected whenever someone merely visits one of our web pages. This uses the Google Analytics service, and it involves the use of cookies (see cookie policy).

What information is collected?

For enquiries we will only collect the minimum information required for the purposes of being able to contact you and make an accurate record of the booking.

The anonymous data relating to website traffic is limited to details of the device or connection being used to access our website (including the IP address of your computer, the country the connection is made from, the browser, etc.) and a record of the pages visited, plus the time spent on each page.

How is your data used?

When you contact us, your data is only used for the corresponding purposes. We will not pass your contact details and other personal data to a third party.

Some data will also be used for internal record keeping (e.g. for the accounts that we are legally obliged to maintain), and to help us assess how to improve the services that we offer.

Anonymous data collected from cookies is used purely to compile statistics regarding the website traffic so that we can judge how well the website is performing. The data is collected and the statistics are compiled using the Google Analytics service. You can access general information about how Google's services impact your privacy here, or click here for the Google Analytics privacy policy.

Who has access to your information?

We will not sell or rent your information to third parties.

We will not share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Personal information will only be given to a third party when we are legally obliged to do so. 

Anonymous data derived from cookies may be shared with third parties, but only for technical purposes, not marketing ones.

We will not contact you for marketing purposes by email, phone or text message unless you have given your prior consent. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by contacting us by email: info@little-pickles.com or telephone on 01522 793112.

The security of your information

When details such as your name and email address are submitted via a contact form or email, this can never be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

Breach notification

If we hold records of your personal data and we become aware of a data breach, we will endeavour to inform you of this within 72 hours.

Our website contains links to other websites of interest. You should note that we do not have any control over those websites, and so cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting them.
