Information we collect:

We can collect information from you from different places that include, directly from you, from a 3rd party acting for you, (example of this would be someone placing an order/or enquiry such as an employee), from both Amalfi Imports Ltd and Sparks Gift Wholesalers LLP websites, and when you register to become a customer. We only collect limited necessary information, including details of your business name and address for invoicing and delivery purposes, your name, email address and telephone number, in order to communicate with you about your shopping interests, the progress of your orders, emailing of invoices, and the coordination of your delivery.

We’ll only collect your information in line with relevant regulations and law and this may relate to any of our products or services you apply for, currently hold or have held in the past.

If you provide information for another person on your account, you’ll need to tell them how to find the Privacy Notice and make sure they agree to us using their information for the purposes set out in it.

We’ll use it to provide our products and services to you that you have requested and other purposes. For example; to confirm your identity and address, understand how you use our websites, products and services,

to carry out your request or instruction, to improve our services and products, to offer other products or service that we think would benefit you, or which qualify as of a legitimate interest.

We will only use your information where we can by law for example carrying out our services to you, fulfilling a legal requirement, where we have a legitimate business interest or where you agree to it.

Limited address and contact information may be shared with third-party delivering / courier companies in relation to orders if shipped direct to you.

As long as you have a relationship with us, after that relationship ends as long as it is for legitimate purposes, example replying to and dealing with complaints, fraud or other crime and requests from regulatory inquiries.
