This privacy notice aims to be completely transparent about how we handle and use your personal information.

We may disclose your personal data to any member of our teams, (including 3rd party manufacturers/distributors/couriers we conect to), in order to provide you with our services and meet our legal obligations. We only share your data with 3rd parties, in the following circumstances:

  • To fulfil your order (i.e. delivery companies and distributors)

Marketing & Market Research:

We collect website user data through the use of the website itself, Google Tracking Tags and Microsoft Tracking Tags in order to improve customer experience, improve our product portfolio and services offered too. 

We may use personally identifiable information to send out marketing communications too. You can opt out of this any any time.

Here we explain the choices you have when it comes to receiving marketing communications and being invited to take part in market research.

  • Customers are NOT automatically signed up to any marketing material from Rubberduck Bathrooms Ltd. This is a personal choice and you must choose to sign up to our newsletter to do so. You can also unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the emails received. 
  • We use your data to improve your experience. We will send you relevant offers, competitions, and news about our products and services in a number of ways including by email, but only if you have previously agreed to receive these marketing communications.
  • We also like to hear your views to help us to improve our services, so we may contact you to invite you to take part in product and customer reviews. Of course, you always have the choice about whether to take part in any survey.

Processing your Data Using our Legitimate Interests:

We have a number of reasons that we can use (or 'process') your personal data. One of these reasons is referred to as 'legitimate interests'. The following are some examples of when and why we would use this approach during our normal course of business:

To improve and enhance our services: We continually asses website user data to help improve the customer experience, our product portfolio and services offered.

In your best interest: We utilise 3rd party payment platforms that use 3d Secure technology in order to protect against fraud when puschasing through our website.

Personalisation: Where the processing enables us to enhance, modify, personalise or otherwise improve our services/communications for the benefit of our customers.

Website Analytics: To process user data for the purposes of customer analysis, marketing performance analysis on either an individual or aggregated basis.

Market Research: To determine the effectiveness of promotional campaigns and to develop our products, services, systems and relationships with customers.

Due Diligence: We may need to conduct investigations on existing customers, potential customers and business partners to determine if those companies and individuals have been involved or convicted of offences such as fraud, bribery and/or corruption.

Direct Marketing: Albeit infrequently, we may send direct marketing materials on occasion. We will also make sure our postal marketing is relevant for you and tailored to your interests. You also have the right to opt-out of receiving this information at any time.

When we process any personal information for our legitimate interests, we will consider and balance any potential impact on you and your rights under data protection and any other relevant law. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your personal data for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you (unless we have your consent or are otherwise required or permitted to by law).

How we Look After your Data:

We will protect the data that you entrust to us via appropriate security measures and controls. We’ll also ensure as best we can that other businesses we conect to are just as careful with your data.

  • We will always take appropriate technical and organisational precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information.
  • We ensure your data is encrypted and secure.
  • We will continually test, audit and monitor our compliance with Information Security standards and relevant Data Protection regulations.
  • We ensure those 3rd parties who process your data operate under a Data Sharing Agreement.

Your Data Outside of the EEA:

The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored on servers in a destination outside the European Economic Area (EEA). It may also be visible by staff operating outside the EEA or as part of any maintenance in relation to the website.

Such staff maybe engaged in, among other things, the fulfilment of your order, the processing of your personal information and the provision of support services.

We have ensured that appropriate protections are in place to make sure your personal data remains adequately protected and is treated in line with relevant Data Protection laws.

How Long do we Hold your Data:

We hold all customer info in a secure location for as long as necessary.
