About this Privacy Policy

This privacy policy refers to how Love Trading Card Games protects and uses any information that you give us when you are using our website.

For all our services, the data controller is Love Trading Card Games.

Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using our website, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement and we will only ask for it if we really need it.

Love Trading Card Games may change the policy from time-to-time by updating this page. You should check this page from time-to-time to ensure that you are happy with any changes. This policy is effective from 9th Dec 2018.

How we will use your data and what data we need

We only collect and use your personal information to complete tasks on your behalf.

With this data we:

• Provide you with products or services you have requested.

• Personalise and customise your experience on Love Trading Card Games, including saving shopping cart information – if you have an account with us and enable cookies, we save your shopping cart for you to carry on where you left off.

• Communicate with you.

• Internal record keeping.

• Purchase history – provide customer service and support, it’s also good reference for you to know what you have purchased from us.

• Give you the opportunity from time-to-time to receive email and e-newsletters from Love Trading Card Games, with your consent.

·         In most cases where Love Trading Card Games asks you to provide information about yourself, if you do not provide Love Trading Card Games with that information, Love Trading Card Games may not be able to process your order. Eg, a courier company may need your telephone number to inform you about your delivery and without this they will not process the delivery.

·         Information about the device you use – your IP address (which can be used for fraud detection and prevention) and what device you have used to visit our website (so we can keep improving and optimising the website for you).

The information we collect:

• Your name, delivery and billing addresses – to deliver your purchase to you.

• Contact telephone number – send you service messages by text (courier delivery time slot) and customer service.

• Email address – to send you order updates and if you create an account, this is your username, along with a password which we cannot access as it is encrypted.

• Date of birth – to confirm you are over the age of 13 and we can lawfully process your data without parental consent. If you make a payment with PayPal, Apple Pay, or Amazon Pay, as those services already require you to be 18 and over, we will not need your birthday. As a thank you providing your birthday, every year you will be sent a voucher to use our website.

• Payment details – to take payment for any order you place and provide refunds where necessary. We will also use these details for fraud prevention and detection, protecting both you and us.

We would like to send you e-newsletters about the products we sell, services and sales but we will only do this if you are happy to receive these emails. You can let us know that you would like to receive emails from us in your account when you log onto the website.

If you wish to return an order, the minimal details we require is your name and order number. Why you are returning your order is always useful, but you do not have to disclose this information.

All the information you give to us is confidential and we will only use your information in the way we tell you in this policy. Only the relevant staff members will have access to certain details. We do not store credit card/debit card information, so while refunds can be processed, we cannot take additional payment.

Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. To prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. We never have access to your full credit/debit card details and are not held in clear text.

Sometimes we need to investigate orders that do not automatically pass our payment providers fraud detection. This may mean your order will take additional time to complete as we will need to complete manual checks using the data you have provided for this and previous orders with us. For example, if your billing address is in the UK and your order is to be delivered to USA and our payment provider is not sure if you placed this order, we may need to get in contact with you or the payment provider may need more time to double check the legitimacy of the order.
