Privacy Policy

Firstly, we value you privacy as we do our own, and any information you supply to us is used ONLY by Winding Roads and is never shared with or sold to any third party. If a customer wishes for their information to be removed from our database, you can request this by emailing us at - sales@windingroads.co.uk.
 
Secondly, we do not retain credit card details on our system. The only information we store is a customer's transaction history, plus address and contact details as entered in the account setup process. When payment is made by card on our site, the payment is handled by Sage Pay using their secure servers, we do not see or have access to your card details.
 
The details you supply to us may be used for by us only, for marketing purposes. Winding Roads do carry out limited and infrequent email marketing, and customers are always given the option to opt out from these emails. Customers will not be sent large volumes of 'spam' e-mail.
 
Phone numbers are requested specifically to allow Winding Roads or our couriers to contact you in the event of a delivery or order problem. A phone call is often the fastest and easiest to do this, so please provide accurate information. Winding Roads do not carry out telephone marketing and NEVER pass this information to others that do.
