We also anonymise and aggregate personal information (so that it does not identify you) and use it for purposes including testing our IT systems, research, data analysis, improving our site, and developing new products and services. We may share this information with third parties, however, as it is anonymous data it cannot be tracked back to you personally.
Sharing your Information
We do not, and will not, sell any of your personal data to any third party - including your name, address, email address or credit card information. We want to earn and maintain your trust, and we believe this is absolutely essential in order to do that. However, we do share your data with the following categories of companies as an essential part of being able to provide our services to you, as set out in this statement:
Companies in the best4hedging group, as sometimes different bits of our group are responsible for different processing activities
Companies that do things to get your purchases to you, such as payment service providers, warehouses, order packers, and delivery companies
Professional service providers, such as marketing agencies, advertising partners and website hosts who help us run our business
Credit reference agencies, law enforcement and fraud prevention agencies, so we can help tackle fraud
Marketplace sellers where you place an order, and the relevant payment services (such as PayPal) where you choose to use their payment service
We may provide third parties with aggregated but anonymised information and analytics about our customers and, before we do so, we will make sure that it does not identify you.
Marketing Messages
We will only send you marketing messages about products or services related to the ones you have purchased via email, to keep you up to date with what we're up to and to help you see and find our products.
How to stop marketing messages from best4hedging Ltd
You can stop receiving marketing messages from us at any time.
You can do this by:
Selecting the 'I do not wish to receive marketing messages' box during the checkout process if placing an order online
Verbally informing the advisor taking your order over the telephone that you do not wish to receive marketing messages
Once you do this, we will update your profile to ensure that you don't receive further marketing messages. Please note that, as best4hedging comprises a complex web of many inter-connecting services, it might take a few days for all our systems to be updated, so you might get messages from us while we process your request.
Stopping marketing messages will not stop service communications (such as order updates or where you have expressed an interest in an activity at best4hedging).
