  • A “cookie” is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site or the use of a device or a website. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.
  • A “web beacon” is a small object or image that is embedded into a web page, application, or email (for example in our MailChimp marketing emails) and is used to track activity. They are also sometimes referred to as pixels and tags (also known as “tracking pixels”). It may be used in our Services or emails and help deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. For more information about cookies and how to manage them, please see below.

2.3.1. How we use cookies

We use traffic log cookies and other similar technologies to collect information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and to identify which pages are being used to help us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our website. Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website. These are essentially session cookies for authenticating and connecting to the Services, as well as memorising navigation items during a session.
You have the ability to decline cookies but this might prevent you from benefiting from some elements of the Services. You can also consult or destroy cookies if you wish, since they are stored on your hard disk.
We may also use these technologies for other purposes than the Services operation such as:

  • To improve our Services;
  • To remember you, for your convenience, when you visit our Services;
  • To provide you with advertising tailored to your interests;
  • or other purposes described in the section of this Privacy Policy titled, “How we use the Data”

We inform you, in particular, that we use Google Analytics to collect information about use of our Services. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. We inform you that Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit our site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognising you on return visits to this site by disabling cookies on your browser. You can read more about how Google uses your information here.

Facebook (under the 'Ads Shown Off Facebook' tab) here.

Google - here.

Bing - here.

You can also opt out of some of these services by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance’s opt-out portal here.

2.3.3. 'Do Not Track' Notifications

Some browsers allow you to automatically notify websites you visit not to track you using a 'Do Not Track' signal. There is no consensus among industry participants as to what 'Do Not Track' means in this context. Like many websites and online services, we currently do not alter our practices when we receive a 'Do Not Track' signal from a visitor’s browser. You can find out more about 'Do Not Track' here.

 2.4. Data we collect from other Sources

We may also obtain information from other sources and combine that with information we collect through our Services. For example, if you connect a Culinary Concepts London ltd account with your social media account, we may have access to certain information from the company that owns or operates the social media account in accordance with the authorization procedures determined by such social media company.
Additionally, Culinary Concepts London ltd may receive information about you from other third parties whom you have authorized to share your information or who collect information in connection with co-branded offerings.

3.1. Complying with Data Protection Laws

At the heart of data protection laws are the "data protection principles" which say that the personal information we hold about you must be:

  • used lawfully, fairly and in a transparent way;
  • collected only for valid purposes that we have clearly explained to you and not used in any way that is incompatible with those purposes;
  • relevant to the purposes we have told you about and limited only to those purposes;
  • accurate and kept up to date; 
  • kept only as long as necessary for the purposes we have told you about; and
  • kept securely

3.2. Lawful Basis for using the Data

In accordance with the data protection laws, we need a "lawful basis" for collecting and using information about you. There are a variety of different legal bases for using personal data which are set out in the data protection laws.
The lawful bases on which we rely in order to use the information which we collect about you for the purposes set out in this statement will be:

  • Contract: Using your information will be necessary for us to either perform the contract between us or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into the contract;
  • Legal compliance: Using your information will be necessary for us to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation which is placed on Culinary Concepts; 
  • Legitimate interest: Using your information will be necessary for our legitimate commercial interest and our interest is not outweighed by the potential impact on your privacy. For example, we rely on legitimate interest as our lawful basis to send you marketing information by email or by post if you have placed an order with us and you have not objected to receiving such marketing information. If you would prefer not to receive marketing information from us, please email us at sales@culinaryconcepts.co.uk 
  • Consent: It is possible that you may give us your consent to use your information for a particular purpose.

4. How we share your Data

We may share information about you as follows or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy:

  • In response to a request for information if we are required by, or believe disclosure is required by, any applicable law, regulation or legal process, including in connection with lawful requests by law enforcement, national security, or other public authorities;
  • In connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company; 
  • To our nominated third party carriers to enable them to deliver your order and to contact you if there is a problem with delivery (i.e. telephone, name and address only);
  • To our nominated marketing agencies who provide marketing services on our behalf; these service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business.
  • To registered credit reference or fraud prevention agencies who may retain and use your personal information; or
  • To third party companies who are co-hosting a competition and you have consented to that transfer.
  • We may also share aggregated or de-identified information, which cannot reasonably be used to identify you.

5. The period of Data retention

We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

6. Data transfer

We inform you that Culinary Concepts has third-party service providers within as well as outside of the European Economic Area (the “EEA”). As a consequence, whenever Culinary Concepts is using or otherwise processing your data for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, Culinary Concepts may transfer your Data to countries outside of the EEA including to such countries in which a statutory level of data protection applies that is not comparable to the level of data protection within the EEA.
Whenever such transfer occurs, it is based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (according to EU Commission Decision 87/2010/EC or any future replacement) in order to contractually provide that your Data is subject to a level of data protection that applies within the EEA.

7. Security

We are committed to ensuring that your information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, we have put in place suitable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online to help protect data from loss, theft, misuse and accidental, unlawful or unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, use and destruction. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once it is received. If you have any questions about the security of your personal information, you can contact us at data@culinaryconcepts.co.uk .
Our HTTPS site (identified by the padlock logo) uses server software to protect your information whenever you place an order or access your account information. This software encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us to minimise the risk of this being intercepted before it is received us. We also follow a tight security procedure as required under UK Date Protection Legislation, (The Data Protection Act 1998) to protect the information that we store about you from unauthorised access.
We feel confident that credit card information entered on our site will not be accessed by any unauthorised person or company. Our secure sockets layer (SSL) website is protected by a Thawte Security Certificate. We use a secure transaction system from Thawte to encrypt and thus protect your credit card details so it is virtually impossible for unauthorised parties to read any information that you send us. This is a powerful tool which secures your transaction details with us. We never store your full card details on our website or on our order processing system. The minimal details we do keep are protected by the latest proxy technology. This does mean you have to give your card details every time you place an order with us but this minor inconvenience does ensure that it is totally safe to shop with us.
To protect customers, your bank may also request that you are screened using 3D Secure (MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa)
Customer account passwords are also encrypted on our website to ensure maximum protection.

7.1. How we protect 

  • Access to customer account information is limited to those who need access for the performance of their job.
  • We use full login and password controls on our system.

  • We do not knowingly obtain or store any Special Categories of Personal Data, such as information about health or medical conditions, race or religious beliefs.

Subject Access Request

If you would like us to supply you with a copy of any personal data we hold about you, please send an email to data@culinaryconcepts.co.uk or call us on 01252 852 305 and we will provide you with a Subject Access Request Form to complete.
You are currently entitled to receive a copy of your personal data under the Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA) and will continue to be under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which comes into effect on 25 May 2018. We will also provide you with information about any processing of your personal data that is being carried out, the retention periods which apply to your personal data, and any rights to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing that may exist.
We will endeavour to respond promptly and in any event within one month of the latest of the following:

  • Our receipt of your written request; or
  • Our receipt of any further information we may ask you to provide to enable us to comply with your request.

The information you supply in the form we will ask you to complete will only be used for the purposes of identifying the personal data you are requesting and responding to your request. You are not obliged to complete the form to make a request but doing so will make it easier for us to process your request quickly.
Please note that if the information you request reveals details directly or indirectly about another person we will have to seek the consent of that person before we can let you see that information. In certain circumstances, where disclosure would adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others, we may not be able to disclose the information to you, in which case you will be informed promptly and given full reasons for that decision.
While in most cases we will be happy to provide you with copies of the information you request, we nevertheless reserve the right, in accordance with section 8(2) of the DPA, not to provide you with copies of information requested if to do so would take disproportionate effort”, or in accordance with Article 12 of the GDPR to charge a fee or refuse the request if it is considered to be “manifestly unfounded or excessive”. However, we will make every effort to provide you with a satisfactory form of access or summary of information if suitable.
