Private Policy 

What do we, weddingcandles.ie, do with your information?

When you purchase something from our online shop, as part of the buying and selling process, we collect the personal information you give us such as your name, address, phone number and email address. We use this information to simply process your order, and deliver your purchases to you.  

When you browse our shop, we also automatically receive your computer’s internet protocol (IP) address in order to provide us with information that helps us learn about your browser and operating system.

Email marketing (if applicable): With your permission, we may send you emails about our store, new products and other updates.

Consent - How do you get my consent?

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, place an order, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only.

If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.

How do I withdraw my consent?

If, after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at anytime, by contacting us at info@weddingcandles.ie or mailing us at: WeddingCandles.ie, Lynda Cruise, 16 Newtown Grove, Suncroft, Co.

Disclosure

We may disclose your personal information if we are required by law to do so or if you violate our Terms of Service.


Merchant Moms 

Our store is hosted on Merchant Moms.  They provide us with the online e-commerce platform that allows us to sell our products and services to you via Mal's Cart.

Your data is stored through Merchant Mom's data storage, databases and the general Merchant Mom's application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.


Payment:

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Paypal stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.

For more insight, you may also want to read Paypal's Terms of Service Here or Privacy Policy Here.

Third Party Services 

In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.

Once you leave our store’s website or are redirected to a third-party website or application, you are no longer governed by this Privacy Policy or our website’s Terms of Service.
