This Policy sets out the principles governing our use of your Personal Data. In buying the services available on our website and by using the site generally, you agree to the principles set out below.

​

If you have purchased from our website or signed up to our newsletter, we will notify you of any material modifications by sending you an email to the email address associated to you unless you have unsubscribed from all email communications. All changes to this Privacy Policy automatically take effect on the sooner of the day you use our website and/or Services, or 30 calendar days after they are initially posted on our website. Your use of our website and/or Services following the effective date of any modifications to this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of the Privacy Policy, as modified.

• To carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered into by you and us;

• Seek your view or comments on the services and products we provide;

We review our retention periods for personal information on a regular basis. We are legally required to hold some types of information to fulfil our statutory obligations. We will hold your personal information on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant activity, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with us.
 

WHO HAS ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION?

We will not sell or rent your information to third parties and we will not share your information with third parties for marketing purposes.

​

We may pass your information to our third party service providers, agents subcontractors and other associated organisations for the purposes of completing tasks and providing services to you on our behalf (for example to send you marketing emails). However, when we use third party service providers, we disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own direct marketing purposes.

 

Please be reassured that we will not release your information to third parties beyond the ME BRAND network for them to use for their own direct marketing purposes, unless you have requested us to do so, or we are required to do so by law, for example, by a court order or for the purposes of prevention of fraud or other crime.

​

If you do not want to receive direct marketing communications from us about our products and services, then you can select your choices by ticking the relevant boxes situated on the form on which we collect your information or by contacting us at info@mebranddesign.com.

​

We will not contact you for marketing purposes by telephone or email unless you have given your prior consent. You can change your marketing preferences at any time by contacting us at info@mebranddesign.com.

​

The accuracy of your information is important to us. We’re working on ways to make it easier for you to review and correct the information that we hold about you. In the meantime, if you change email address, or any of the other information we hold is inaccurate or out of date, please email us at info@mebranddesign.com.
