How do you use my data?

When you visit us in store

When you visit us and purchase a product from us in store, we will use your personal information to complete your purchase. The details we collect from you will include your name, address, payment and other contact details.

To complete your purchase, we share your personal information with our subcontractors who are involved in the purchase process, such as payment providers, as well as credit reference agencies who we use to assess fraud, credit and/or security risks.

We need to process your personal information in this way to enter into and perform the contract for the item you have purchased from us.

When you phone us or email us

When you phone us or send us an email, we may also handle your personal information (your name, contact details and the other details you provide to us) in order to provide the customer services you have asked us to. This could be when you ask us to confirm whether a particular product is available, or explain how our delivery or returns process works. This information will also be shared with our subcontractors we use to provide our customer support system, but they only ever use your information for the specific purposes of providing our customer support services.

We rely on your consent to handle your personal information in this way. If you do not provide us with the personal information we request from you for customer services purposes, we may not be able to fully answer your queries.

When you have expressed an interest in receiving more information

If you have opted in via our stores, website or over the telephone to receive marketing communications from us, we will handle your personal information (such as your name, email address, postal address and telephone number) to provide you with marketing communications in line with any preferences you have told us about.

When we send you marketing emails, we rely on your consent to contact you for marketing purposes. Every email we send to you for marketing purposes will also contain instructions on how to unsubscribe from receiving them.

You are not under any obligation to provide us with your personal data for marketing purposes.

You can tell us that you do not want your personal information to be processed in this way at any time by contacting us at unsubscribe@prs-and.com or, where relevant, by following the unsubscribe link shown in every marketing communication you receive from us.

If our business is sold:

We will transfer your personal information to a third party:

·         if we sell or buy any business or assets, we will provide your personal information to the seller or buyer (but only to the extent we need to, and always in accordance with data protection legislation); or

·         if PRS& or the majority of its assets are acquired by somebody else, in which case the personal information held by PRS& will be transferred to the buyer.

We process your personal information for this purpose because we have a legitimate interest to ensure our business can be continued by the buyer. If you object to our use of your personal information in this way, the relevant seller or buyer of our business may not be able to provide services to you.

In some circumstances we may also need to share your personal information if we are under a duty to disclose or share it to comply with a legal obligation.
