Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit callenford.com or buy from us, why we hold it, and what rights you have over it.

4. Who we share it with
We do not sell or rent your personal data. We share only what is necessary with the providers who help us operate:
- Shopify — our ecommerce platform and hosting
- Payment providers — including PayPal, Shop Pay, Klarna, Apple Pay and Google Pay
- Carriers and fulfilment partners — including YunExpress, 4PX and SpeedX, and your local postal service
- Email and analytics providers — used to send order notifications and marketing you've opted into, and to understand how the site is used
- Meta Platforms — where you have consented to advertising cookies, as described below
Each receives only the data needed to do its job and is required to protect it under applicable data-protection law.
5. Cookies and advertising
We use cookies to keep your cart, remember your preferences and understand how the site performs.
Where you consent, we also use the Meta pixel, which allows us to measure the performance of our advertising on Facebook and Instagram and to show ads to people who have visited the site. You can withdraw this consent at any time through our cookie settings, or by managing cookies in your browser.
6. How long we keep it
Order and transaction records are kept for as long as accounting and tax law requires us to hold them. Marketing contact details are kept until you unsubscribe. Anything else is kept only as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected for, then deleted or anonymised.
7. Your rights
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Have inaccurate data corrected
- Have your data erased, where we have no overriding obligation to keep it
- Restrict or object to how we process it
- Receive your data in a portable format
- Withdraw consent to marketing or advertising cookies at any time
To exercise any of these, email sales@callenford.com. We respond within 30 days.
If you believe we have handled your data improperly, you also have the right to complain to the Czech supervisory authority, the Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů (Office for Personal Data Protection), or to the authority in your own country of residence.
8. Security
This site runs over SSL encryption, and payment data is handled solely by certified payment processors — we never see or store your full card details.
9. International transfers
Some of our providers operate outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Where your data is transferred outside the EEA, it is protected by safeguards recognised under EU data-protection law, such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
10. Children
This site is not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we'll delete it.
