Information you provide in emails to us will only be used for the purpose (which we reasonably believe) that you give it to us for.

Your Data
Circular&Co. uses a secure web hosting platform to present and sell our services and products. Our website hosting and support is provided by Channel Digital Ltd.
Credit card information
We do not handle your credit card information directly, i.e. do not collect, store or process such data in any way. Instead, we use a Worldpay payment gateway to process your payment information.
Payments on the payment processor’s secure page
When you place an order, we send the order information to the payment processor and then redirects the customer securely to the Worldpay website page where you will enter your credit card information. When the payment is done, the payment processor sends a reply (callback) containing the payment status to our website.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Some cookies are used for advertising, so you are shown adverts that are more personalised to you, based on your previous internet behaviour.
Some examples of cookies could be:

Persistent cookies remain in your browser once you have left the site and closed your web browser. The next time you visit the site the information in the cookie will be used to ensure the website works as set up at the previous visit. For example to display certain things on the homepage. Persistent cookies will expire if the website that set them is not visited again within a certain timescale.
