Privacy policy

Privacy Policy

This policy explains how your personal information is collected and used when you visit norwich-cameras.co.uk (the "Website") or buy from it, and what your rights are.

1. Who is responsible for your information

Two companies handle your personal information. Each is a "controller" under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) for its own purposes:

  • Neat Commerce Limited (company number 10994650), Unit GF3 Crafton House, Rosebery Business Park, Mentmore Way, Poringland, Norfolk, NR14 7XP ("Neat Commerce"). Neat Commerce owns and operates the Website and the Norwich Cameras brand. It is responsible for Website use, analytics, marketing and customer service.
  • Futronix Electronic Limited (Hong Kong business registration number 78500428), Unit 2904-05, 29/F, Universal Trade Centre, 3 Arbuthnot Road, Central, Hong Kong SAR (the "Seller"). The Seller sells the products and receives payment (collected on its behalf by Neat Commerce). It is responsible for your order, payment information and collecting payment as the Seller’s agent.

Neat Commerce also handles order information on the Seller's behalf when it provides customer service, returns and after-sales support. Neat Commerce acts as the Seller's representative in the UK for data protection purposes.

For any privacy question, contact Neat Commerce using the details in section 11. We will deal with your request whichever company it relates to.

4. Who we share it with

We share your information only as needed to run the Website and fulfil your order:

  • Between Neat Commerce and the Seller, so the Seller can supply your order and Neat Commerce can support you.
  • Shopify, which hosts the Website and checkout. See Shopify's privacy policy.
  • Payment service providers used at checkout, such as Shopify Payments and PayPal.
  • Shipping and courier services, such as ShipStation and FedEx, to deliver your order.
  • Advertising and analytics partners, such as Google, Meta and Microsoft, where you have consented to advertising cookies.
  • Authorities and advisers, where the law requires it or to protect our rights.

We do not sell your personal information.

5. International transfers

Your information may be transferred outside the UK, including:

  • to the Seller in Hong Kong; and
  • to service providers in Canada, the United States, Ireland and other countries, including Shopify.

Where a country does not have a UK adequacy decision, we protect transfers with safeguards approved under UK law, such as the International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Contact us for a copy of the relevant safeguards.

6. How long we keep it

  • Order and payment records: 6 years from the end of the financial year of the order, to meet tax and accounting requirements.
  • Customer service records: up to 6 years after your last contact, in case of warranty or legal claims.
  • Marketing preferences: until you unsubscribe, then a suppression record so we do not contact you again.
  • Cookies: see section 8.

7. Automated decision-making

We do not make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects based solely on automated processing.

Shopify uses limited automated fraud prevention. For example, it may temporarily block IP addresses or cards linked to repeated failed transactions, for a few hours or days.

8. Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your device when you visit the Website. We use strictly necessary cookies to make the Website and checkout work. We use analytics and advertising cookies only if you accept them in our cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time.

Google, Meta and Microsoft advertising cookies

Measuring advertising and showing relevant adverts

Most cookies expire between 30 minutes and 2 years after they are set. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though parts of the Website may then not work properly.

Because there is no agreed industry standard for "Do Not Track" signals, the Website does not respond to them. Your cookie banner choices still apply.

9. Your rights

Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:

  • access the personal information we hold about you;
  • have inaccurate information corrected;
  • have your information erased;
  • restrict or object to how we use your information, including for marketing;
  • receive your information in a portable format; and
  • withdraw your consent at any time, where we rely on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in section 11. We will respond within one month.

10. Children

The Website is not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has given us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

11. Contact and complaints

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office: ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint.

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will always be on this page.
