Caribbean Bunch Privacy Policy
Caribbean Bunch Limited (“Caribbean Bunch”) is committed to protecting your privacy. We prioritise the security of your personal information. This policy outlines how we utilise the information we gather about you and the measures we implement to ensure your privacy while using our website.
We will only process the information we collect about you in compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998.
The Information We Collect and How We Use It
When you register with Caribbean Bunch and place an order, we require your name, delivery address, credit or debit card number and expiry date, email address, and telephone number. This information is essential for processing your order and keeping you updated on its status. Your orders may be fulfilled by a third-party service, and we will share your information with them to ensure the timely delivery of your goods. This third-party provider is committed to protecting your information and will not disclose it or use it for any purpose other than delivering your ordered items.
We may also ask for optional contact details, including your mobile number and demographic information like your age.
If you join our mailing lists for pre-orders and updates, you will be prompted to indicate your areas of interest. This allows us to customise the information we provide to align with the topics and books you may find appealing.
We may occasionally include promotional inserts with your order, showcasing our products or services. Rest assured, we do not share your information with third-party companies.
We maintain the right to utilize your information to notify you about exclusive offers, author signings, and other features or events on our website that may interest you.
Your IP address is used to troubleshoot server issues and manage our website. It also helps us recognise you and your information in our database.
We monitor customer traffic to help us develop and improve our website for the benefit of our customers. To enhance your use of the website, you will be given a session ID, which will only last for the duration of that visit to the site. Every time you visit the site, you will have a different session ID.
By submitting your information, you consent to the use of that information as set out in this policy. If we change our Privacy Policy, we will post the changes on this page to keep you informed. Additionally, we will send you an email notifying you of any changes and provide you with an opportunity to request that we not use your information in that manner. Because the Internet infrastructure is global and it is not possible to predict the routes that information sent over the Internet will take, the information you provide may be transferred temporarily via a route that takes it outside the European Economic Area as it passes between you and us. By submitting your information, you consent to this transfer.

Security of Your Information
We adhere to rigorous security protocols for the storage and sharing of your information. This is to safeguard against unauthorised access or illegal processing of your personal data. Your information remains confidential and is stored on a secure server, protected by a password and shielded by a firewall from external threats. We utilise Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt all your personal details, including your credit card number, name, and address.

Non-disclosure To Third Parties
We will disclose your personal data to third parties only if you consent or if it is necessary to complete your transaction with us. This is subject to the proviso that we may disclose or transfer your data to a partner company where you have supplied information via a site that is co-branded with that partner company or to members of our own group. If personally identifying data about you may be shared with a partner company, we will tell you before we collect or transfer the data so that you may opt out of this transfer if you wish.
We use your information only as set out in this policy and will not sell, rent, or pass your information on to others for marketing purposes without your consent.
Caribbean Bunch may, however, provide aggregate statistics about its customers, sales traffic patterns, and related site information to reputable third-party vendors and relevant affiliate partners, but these statistics will include no personally identifying information. We may also release account information where we believe in good faith that this release is reasonably necessary to comply with the law.
Your Consent
By submitting your information to our website, you agree to the collection, storage, and processing of your personal information as outlined in this policy. Updates to our Privacy Policy will be posted on this website, keeping you informed about the data we collect, its usage, and the conditions under which we may share it. All customers will be notified via email of any changes and will have the option to request that their information not be utilised in that way.
