This policy explains how ANIMEXIA LTD ("Animexia", "we", "us") collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit animexia.co.uk, place an order or write to us. ANIMEXIA LTD is the data controller of your personal information and is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office under reference ZC249779.

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with trusted providers who help us operate, and only as far as necessary:

  • Shopify, which hosts our shop and processes orders on our behalf.
  • Our production and delivery partners, who make and dispatch your case and need your name and delivery address to do so.
  • Payment providers, who process your payment securely.
  • Advertising and analytics providers, including Meta, Google and Microsoft, where you have consented to cookies.
  • Review providers, should you choose to leave a review.
  • Public authorities, where we are required to do so by law.

 

International transfers
Some of our providers, and those who manage the business on our behalf, may process your information outside the United Kingdom. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as adequacy regulations or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement.

 

How long we keep your information
We keep order and transaction records for six years, as required for tax and accounting purposes. Marketing information is kept until you unsubscribe. Correspondence is kept for as long as necessary to resolve your enquiry.

 

Cookies
We use cookies to operate our shop, remember your bag and, with your consent, to measure our advertising and understand how our website is used. You may change your preferences at any time through the cookie banner or your browser settings.
