Privacy policy.

Online High Street is committed to protecting your privacy and this statement sets out our policy on how we will and will not use any personal information you supply us with.

Information Collection

By entering your personal information in the Online High Street website, you accept that we may retain your information and it may be held by Online High Street or by any third party company which processes it on our behalf.

When you shop with Online High Street, we ask for information such as your name, email address, delivery address, contact details and, if you place an order, your credit card details. We retain this information so that we can recognise you as a registered customer and fulfil the orders you place with us.

We keep a record of your purchases with us to help us deal quickly with any problems you may experience with your order and improve our service to you. We also keep a record of any email correspondence you send us. Telephone calls made to our customer service helpline may be recorded for monitoring and quality control purposes.

Use of Your Personal Information
All the information we collect via our website or through correspondence with you is used to operate and improve the service we offer you.

We use your personal information for dealing with orders and accounts for the supply of goods and services ordered via our website and to monitor and improve our website and services.

We may use the information you supply us with to enable third parties to carry out technical, logistical or other functions on our behalf.

We may conduct market research including statistical analysis of customer behaviour which we may disclose to third parties in depersonalised, aggregated form.

We may provide you with periodic communications (this may be by post, telephone, SMS, email or as part of your delivery) about features, products, services, events, promotions and special offers. Please let us know if you would prefer not to receive these communications.

We may make enquiries about you including searching your records held by organisations like Experian and Equifax and credit reference agencies. We may also check your details held by the IMRG Security Alert scheme and other fraud prevention schemes.

If you default on payments, we may disclose your relevant details to debt collection agencies.

We may also use your personal information to prevent and detect fraud or abuses of our website.

We may use your information to comply with any requirements imposed on Online High Street by law or court order.

We will not share your information with anyone else to enable them to send you direct marketing unless you agree otherwise. However, there are circumstances where it is necessary for us to share personal information in order for us to provide our customers with our delivery service. At all times where we use or disclose your information, it will remain secure.

We work with third-party services to create and measure targeted ads for Online High Street. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to collect or receive information from www. onlinehighstreet.uk and elsewhere on the internet. Using these services allows us to produce tailored adverts and measure their success. If you would like to opt out of the collection and use of information for these purposes, you can do so at aboutads.info/choices.

The only circumstances where we may share some of your information with others is when we are required to do so by law, in order to administer your order, to our suppliers and service providers who process data on our behalf in the UK and abroad, inside or outside the EEA, and where required for business succession reasons.

Cookies
A cookie is a bit of text sent to your browser by a website that you have visited. It's used to help the website remember information about your visit, so you don't have to re-enter the same information on different pages on the website, or on your next visit to it. Browsing the web would very quickly become frustrating without them!

Online High Street uses cookies for different purposes, such as remembering which shops we can deliver from to you, your preferences about seeing alerts and information, counting how many visitors have been to a page, and keeping track of what goodies you've added to your basket. We also use them to get information on how popular our products and features are, so we know we're always concentrating our efforts where you'd most like to see it. We never store or look at information about specific people.

Online High Street needs cookies to work - you wouldn't be able to log in to your account or place an order without them - and so, by using www.onlinehighstreet.uk, you are agreeing to our use of cookies.

Security
It is important for you to protect against unauthorised access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to log out when using a shared computer.

All transaction information passed between our site and Stripe, our secure payment provider, is encrypted using 128-bit SSL certificates. No cardholder information is ever passed unencrypted, and any messages sent to your servers from Stripe are signed using MD5 hashing to prevent tampering. You can be completely secure in the knowledge that nothing you pass to the Stripe servers can be examined, used or modified by any third parties attempting to gain access to sensitive information. Stripe secures all sensitive data using the same internationally recognised 256-bit encryption standards used by, among others, the US Government. The encryption keys are held on state-of-the-art, tamper proof systems in the same family as those used to secure VeriSign's Global Root certificate, making them all but impossible to extract.

Fraud
Please be wary of fraudulent requests for your card details by email. We will never email you asking for these as email is not secure.
