Privacy Policy

Except where otherwise stated in this privacy policy, we will not wilfully disclose any personal information of any visitors to our website without first obtaining their consent, unless required to do so to fulfil any legal obligation. Whenever you use this website, the Web server on which these web pages are stored needs to know the network address of your computer so that it can send the requested web pages to your Internet browser. The unique network address of your computer is called its "IP address," and is sent automatically each time you access any Internet site. From a computer's IP address, it is possible to determine the general geographic location of that computer, but otherwise it is anonymous. We do keep a record of the IP addresses from which users access our site. We use this collective data for internal administration, and to analyse the ways in which people use our site. The resulting information helps us to keep improving the services we offer you, but cannot be used to identify you personally.

We receive and reply to email from website users on a regular basis. For archive purposes we retain copies of most emails sent to us. We do not anticipate that the information in the emails we receive or send will be disclosed to any third party without the permission of the sender, either express or implied, unless required or necessary as specified in the previous paragraph.

At all times there is no obligation for our customers to provide us with personal information – unless it is a necessary requirement to fulfil an order or to provide another customer service function. Customer delivery and contact details are stored and purchase history details may also be collected. All information Bebec collects through the course of normal business dealings remains confidential.

We use the supplied information for processing orders or for internal marketing purposes – which may include fulfilment of orders, the analysis of customer shopping habits, interests, preferences and relevance of our special offers and promotions and sending information about promotions and products including sending information by e-mail or mail such as advising on a relevant product offer.

Bebec takes all reasonable precautions to ensure that any personal information received is kept confidential. For sending information and for delivery of orders placed through our outlets or via our website, it is necessary to disclose some personal information to third parties such as delivery contractors. Bebec takes appropriate steps to ensure our suppliers and contractors only use the information provided to them for the relevant purpose.

Our website uses SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology, with credit card details and other information scrambled (encrypted) to minimise possible misuse by third parties. A padlock/key is displayed on the lower right hand corner of the user's screen when the SSL technology is in action - indicating a secure site. We do not encourage (and in fact advise against) sending any sensitive information by email, as information sent by email is not encrypted and therefore not a secure mode of transmission.

It may be necessary for us to make alterations to this policy from time to time to address any changes in legislation and to continue to responsibly manage and protect personal information.
