1. Please read carefully!

This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) describes how we (London Furniture Company Ltd., together with its affiliated companies worldwide, “LFC”, “we” or “us”) collect and use information pertaining to each of our unregistered visitors and registered users, including users with Paid Services (each, a “Visitor” or “User” (respectively), or “you”), in connection with their access to and use of Wix’s websites (including www.londonfurniturecompany.com and any of its subdomains, the “Website”), web applications (“Apps”), mobile applications (“Mobile Apps”), and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

 

The purpose of this Privacy Policy is to provide you with a clear explanation of when, why and how we collect and use your personal information, as well as an explanation of your statutory rights.  This Privacy Policy is not intended to override the terms of any contract you have with us, nor any rights you might have under applicable data privacy laws.

2. What information do we collect?
2.1. Visitor and User Information

We collect two types of information regarding our Visitors and Users:

  1. Un-identified and non-identifiable information pertaining to a Visitor or un-identified User, which may be made available to us, or collected automatically via his/her use of the Services (“Non-personal Information”). Such Non-personal Information does not enable us to identify the Visitor or User from whom it was collected. The Non-personal Information collected by us mainly consists of technical and aggregated usage information, such as Visitors’ and Users’ browsing and ‘click-stream’ activity on the Services, session heatmaps and scrolls, non-identifying information regarding the Visitor’s or User’s device, operating system, internet browser, screen resolution, language and keyboard settings, internet service provider, referring/exit pages, date/time stamps, etc.

  2. Individually identifiable information, namely information that identifies an individual or may with reasonable efforts cause the identification of an individual, or may be of private or sensitive nature (“Personal Information”). The Personal Information collected by us mainly consists of contact details (e.g., e-mail address or phone number), billing details (name, physical billing address, payment method and transaction details), which are only collected from Users with Paid Services, details regarding a browsing or usage session (IP address, Geo-location and/or device unique identifier), details regarding connected third party accounts (such as the e-mail or username for a connected PayPal, Google or Facebook account), scanned identification documents provided to us (such as an ID card, driver’s license, passport or official company registration documents), correspondences (including those made through or uploaded to our Services), and any other Personal Information provided to us by Visitors and/or Users through their access to and/or use of the Services.

LFC welcomes all qualified Applicants to apply to any of the open positions published on our jobs pages, by sending us their contact details and CV (“Applicants Information”) via the relevant Position Application Form on our Website, or through any other means provided by us.

We understand that privacy and discreetness are crucial to our Applicants, and are committed to keep Applicants Information private and use it solely for LFC's internal recruitment purposes (including for identifying Applicants, evaluating their applications, making hiring and employment decisions, and contacting Applicants by phone or in writing).

Please note that LFC may retain Applicants Information submitted to it for no longer than two years after the applied position has been filled or closed. This is done so we can re-consider Applicants for other positions and opportunities at LFC; so we can use their Applicants Information as reference for future applications submitted by them; and if the Applicant is hired, for additional employment and business purposes related to his/her work at LFC.

If you previously submitted your Applicants Information to LFC, and now wish to access it, update it or have it deleted from LFC's systems, please contact us at philip at londonfurniturecompany.com.

LFC have installed certain Third Party Apps, that allow their respective provider to share and/or access certain Non-personal and Personal Information regarding you, via the “WixHive” API. Such information includes, among others, contact details, messages, business applications and certain activities on the Services and/or Website, which are stored and thereafter accessible via our and your User Account.

You will continue to receive advertising for which you have not opted out.

User Data Supplementation: We may receive information about you from other sources, including publicly available databases or third parties from whom we have purchased data, and combine this data with information we already have about you. This helps us to update, expand and analyze our records, identify new customers, and provide products and Services that may be of interest to you. Where we obtain your Personal Information from these third parties, we ensure that such parties are contractually committed to inform you that your Personal Information will be disclosed to us and we take steps to ensure the accuracy of your Personal Information before using it.

We may use your Personal Information to send you promotional content and messages by e-mail, text messages, direct text messages, marketing calls and similar forms of communication from LFC or our partners (acting on LFC's behalf) through such means.

If you do not wish to receive such promotional messages or calls, you may notify LFC at any time or follow the “unsubscribe” or STOP instructions contained in the promotional communications you receive.

We take steps to limit the promotional content we send you to a reasonable and proportionate level, and to send you information which we believe may be of interest or relevance to you, based on your information.

9.2. Service and Billing Messages:

LFC may also contact you with important information regarding our Services, or your use thereof.

It is important that you are always able to receive such messages. For this reason, you are not able to opt-out of receiving such Service and Billing Messages unless our mutual business has concluded.

10. Your rights in relation to your personal information

In general, your personal information is not shared directly with Third Parties. If you wish to see what personal information we hold on you, you may request it by sending an email to philip at londonfurniturecompany.com. Before disclosing the requested Personal Information, we may ask you for additional information in order to confirm your identity and for security purposes (such as a photocopy of your passport). We reserve the right to charge a fee where permitted by law.​

11. Data Retention

We may continue to retain your Personal Information even after your order has been filled, as reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations, to resolve disputes, prevent fraud recognised and abuse, enforce our agreements and/or protect our legitimate interests. Where your Personal Information is no longer required we will ensure it is securely deleted.

12. Is your data secure?

We aim to always secure the Personal Information you share with us, including physical, electronic and procedural measures. Among other things, we offer HTTPS secure access to most areas on our Website; the transmission of sensitive payment information (such as a credit card number) through our designated purchase forms is processed by leading card processing companies that meet industry standards in their encrypted connections and other certification. 

Regardless of the measures and efforts taken by LFC, we cannot and do not guarantee the absolute protection and security of your Personal Information, your Users-of-Users’ Information or any other User Content you upload, publish or otherwise share with Wix or anyone else.

We therefore encourage you to set strong passwords for your User Account and avoid providing us or anyone with any sensitive information of which you believe its disclosure could cause you substantial or irreparable harm. Furthermore, because certain areas on our Services are less secure than others (for example, if you set your Support forum ticket to be “Public” instead of “Private”, or if you browse to a non-SSL page), and since e-mail and instant messaging are not recognized as secure forms of communications, we request and encourage you not to share any Personal Information on any of these areas or via any of these methods.

If you have any questions regarding the security of our Services, you are welcome to contact us at philip at londonfurniturecompany.com

However, as we can’t guarantee absolute protection – we encourage you to be careful, set a strong password for your account, and avoid submitting any sensitive information which, if exposed, could cause you major harm.
