At Photogifts.co.uk we are committed to protecting our customers' personal information when purchasing from our site. Personal information will NOT be passed to any 3rdparties other than those who need it for payment transaction processing and fulfilment/delivery of your order. We only use your information to fulfil your request for an order from this web site. Your name, address and details of your order are passed to PayPal or Shopify Payments who handle financial transactions securely on our behalf. PayPal or Shopify Payments may pass information to other parties and financial institutions who provide payment card authorisation, fraud prevention and payment validation services. 

Our payment pages are 100% secure using the very latest encryption capabilities. Photogifts do not have any visibility of, or store any payment card details whatsoever. 

Information we gather during your shopping experience with Photogifts includes your name, address, email address and telephone number.

We may use your e-mail address to send you information about special offers or changes to Photogifts.co.uk if you have opted in to receive such communication. If you have previously opted-in to our mailing list, and do not wish to receive emails from us, you can unsubscribe by following the links in any email we send. 

We use your e-mail address for the purposes of processing your order/enquiry and electronic image authorisation. Opting out of marketing emails will still permit us to use your e-mail address for the purposes of processing your order / enquiry. 

We may use your telephone number to contact you regarding your order if necessary. It may be passed to a delivery agent so that they may contact you about the delivery of any order from us.

We will use your address as provided for delivery of any orders placed with us and may therefore be passed to a delivery agent to facilitate such delivery.
