We are committed to data protection and data privacy.
With the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enforceable from 25th May 2018, we have undertaken a GDPR readiness programme to review our entire business, the way we handle data and the way in which we use it to provide our services and manage business operations. We have discussed any possible issues with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and they are more than satisfied with our practices.
Information for our school partners
We are very aware of the need to protect vulnerable children. In compliance with the ICO's data protection guidelines, we can assure parents/guardians that their child's name will not be published on any public forum, online or offline. Only parents/guardians of participating schools are given details on how to access our Online Shops. A Unique Reference Number allows parents to source and order their child's design without the child's name ever being entered into our databases.
The following explains what data we collect from you or that you provide to us, how we process it and what we do to keep it safe.

What is the legal basis for processing the data?
We require minimum data to process orders.
Will the data be shared with any third parties?
Never.
How will the information be used?
