5. What Other Data Do We Use?

As an e-commerce website, we collect log  and tech data to streamline and improve customer service and your online shopping experience. 

Cookies

Cookies are used to track which pages you visit, so that our website can function as an online shop, and to make your shopping experience as streamlined as possible. Our website uses two kinds of cookies:

• PHPSESSID

These cookies allow our site to recognise you when you click from page to page. Without them, every page would be treated as the first visit to the site and anything added to the shopping basket would be instantly forgotten. Online shopping would, therefore, be impossible! These cookies expire when the browser is closed.

• Session

These cookies aid convenience; they allow our site to see when you make a return visit and they ensure that the content of your shopping basket is retained. If you sign in with an email address and password, these details are also saved, so you can remain logged in when returning (the password is encrypted). When you sign out, your login details are removed from the cookie. This type of cookie expires after one year.

Any other cookies are created by third party scripts, such as Google Analytics, and any information about the cookies they use can be obtained through them.

Social Media

Our social media share buttons only transmit data once they have been clicked. Therefore, the button only becomes active once you’ve clicked on it and at this point you will be using the social media's website. The only data the social media's servers receive from our site is referral information from the page, such a product title and image. No personal data is transmitted. The Facebook login feature works in a similar way, and no personal information is transmitted to Facebook. However, once you have clicked on the button, any data that is gathered from your Facebook account, such as your name and Facebook ID, will be stored within your User Account. This can be deleted as usual, if requested.

Employees

As part of our legal compliance, we also collect and store Personal Data relating to all employees of our Company. This kind of Personal Data includes:

• Full name
• Address
• Date of Birth
• Pay
• Tax Codes
• Employment history

6. How Do We Protect Your Data?

We take the utmost care and take appropriate action to protect your Personal Data.

For example we:

• Use industry-leading RapidSwitch secure servers
• Employ ‘https’ technology to enhance security
• Personal account data is accessed via an encrypted password
• We take all reasonable precautions to protect physical access to our offices and hence access to data
• Access is password protected

Online Orders:

No payment information, such as credit card number, is stored within our website site or our web hosting company’s servers. This information is collected and processed separately by our payment providers, Worldpay and Paypal.

Escape2 accepts secure online payments via:

• Card payments and Pay by Link transactions through Worldpay’s Payment Gateway, using Worldpay’s securely operated, PCI DSS compliant systems
• Paypal’s securely operated, PCI DSS compliant systems

Telephone Orders:

• You will be required to verbally provide Personal Data over an unsecured telephone line;
• If you want Us to take a card payment over the telephone, you will provide Us with the card details necessary to process the payment;
• We will record Personal Data and card payment details on a paper form that’s destroyed upon completion of payment;
• We will manually enter your card payment details into Worldpay’s Payment Gateway;
• Or, We can send you a Pay By Link request for you to make a payment directly through Worldpay’s Payment Gateway, eliminating the need to disclose your payment card details to ourselves;
• An account will be manually created for you on our website, which will store the same data as an online order, as listed in ‘4. The Personal Data We Store’.

Data Breaches

Our web hosting company ensures that it has appropriate security measures in place to safeguard against any unauthorised access or unlawful proceedings or accidental loss, destruction or damage or disclosure of Personal Data.

We take all appropriate measures to prevent other forms of Personal Data Breaches, which could include:

• Unauthorised access by third parties
• Accidental action/inaction by ourselves/authorised subcontractors
• Sending Personal Data to incorrect recipients
• Lost/stolen computing devices

However, should a data breach be detected, we will inform you and the ICO as and when necessary.

7. How Long Do We Store Your Data?

Data will be held indefinitely, allowing us to deal with future concerns you may have about a particular product, because many of the products We sell have a ‘product’s lifetime warranty’, and we strive to offer the best possible customer service, even years later. However, you have the right to have your Personal Data deleted at any time. Simply complete the form on our Right to be Forgotten page, email us, or use the Contact Us page.

If you placed an order prior to requesting deletion, your details will still remain on that order within our system. This is due to VAT regulations, which request that all records of sales transactions are kept for a minimum of six years.

Session Cookie Data expires after one year.

8. Who Do We Share Your Personal Data With?

Your personal data will not be disclosed to any third party, other than our employees, authorised subcontractors, or law enforcement agencies, and then only to the extent necessary for Us to provide the service you request, to meet our legitimate business interests or to fulfill our legal obligations. Responsibility for Data Protection lies with our Company Secretary.

We will not sell your personal data to any third party.

Courier Companies

We will provide your name, delivery address, telephone number(s), email address and extra delivery information supplied to the courier company employed to deliver your goods. They may contact you via telephone, email or text message.
