Privacy Notice
Loveless Cook Blinds Privacy Notice
In line with the new General Data Protection Regulation that is enacted from 25th May 2018, we’ve updated out Privacy Notice so that anyone who wishes to be informed about what we do with their data should find out everything they need to know on this page. Naturally, if there is anything that you would like to know about how we process your personal data that you can’t see here, please get in touch.
Personal Data
The purpose of the GDPR legislation is to give individuals more control over their personal data and how it is processed. We fully endorse this principle and want to be completely transparent about the data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it and what happens to it when you no longer require our services.
Visitors to Our Website
When we receive a visitor to www.lovelesscookblinds.co.uk, we use the third-party service Google Analytics to collect the standard internet log information. Google Analytics works by reading the user's IP address then setting a cookie on rwd.click containing a unique ID (so Google can get accurate audience figures). The IP address is then never used again. The unique ID has no personal identity information held within it.
If you object to Google Analytics collecting data, you can download a browser add-on that will prevent Google Analytics from using your data: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Contact Form Data
We ask prospective clients to supply contact information should they wish to make an enquiry. On our website, we have a ‘Contact Us’ form that enables those who want to find out more about our services to get in touch quickly.
Contact form data is never stored in a database, it's only ever emailed directly to our sales@lovelesscookblinds.co.uk email address.
We will never sell this data or use it for marketing purposes.
Transport Layer Security
This website has Transport Layer Security (TLS). TLS keeps secure all the data being transferred between your computer and the website you are viewing. Websites with TLS have a little padlock symbol to the left of the website address in the URL bar.
Your Rights
The GDPR enshrines rights that individuals may exercise in relation to their data:
- The right to be informed
- The right of access
- The right to rectification
- The right to erasure
- The right to restrict processing
- The right to data-portability
- The right to object
- The right not to be subject to automated decision-making including profiling
If you feel that any of these rights are being infringed, we will do everything that we can to address the problem.
What are cookies?
Cookies are text files that your internet browser stores locally on your computer. Cookies help websites to deliver functionality that might require some memory of your actions. For example, an online shop would probably use cookies to remember the contents of your basket so that you don't lose all of your shopping if you close the page without checking out.
Many websites require cookies for the core functionality of the website. However, this one doesn’t. So, if you want to, you can turn cookies off by changing the privacy settings of your browser.
How we use Cookies
Our shop uses a feature called "local storage", which functions in the same way as cookies do, to store your basket information and to store relevant unique identifiers from PayPal during your checkout. In addition to this, we use cookies to keep you logged in if you have a customer account, and some of your user details are stored within local storage. Sensitive information such as your password will never be stored locally.
We use Google Analytics on this website. Google Analytics sets a cookie that identifies unique visitors to our website. We use Google Analytics to keep track of how many users are accessing our website, and to see which pages they browse through. Analytics help us to understand our audience so that we can deliver a better service to everyone.
To find out more about how Google uses cookies, please read Google's Cookie Policy.
You can opt out of Google Analytics by downloading this Browser Add-on.
Changes to this Privacy Notice
We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Notice from time to time, so please take the time to review periodically.
