This information remains confidential at all times. The Nursery Store gathers information through aggregated tracking data, derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to the needs of the user. Under no circumstances does thenurserystore.com divulge any information about an individual user to a third party. Thenurserystore.com gathers user information in the following processes:

Optional voluntary information

We offer the following free services, which require some voluntary submission of personal information by users.

Electronic newsletters

We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users. Thenurserystore.com gathers the e-mail addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by clicking the unsubscribe link in every newsletter. Users can also subscribe to the newsletters at the time of registration.

Message boards/forums

Users of the site's message boards and forums must register separately for these services (both are free of charge) to post messages, although they needn't register to visit the site. During registration, the user must supply a username, password, and e-mail address.

"E-mail this to a friend" service

Our site users can choose to electronically forward a link, page or document to someone else by clicking the ‘e-mail this to a friend’ link. The user must provide their email address, as well as that of the recipient. This information is only used in transmission errors and letting the recipient know who sent the e-mail. The information is not used for any other purpose.

Usage tracking

Thenurserystore.com tracks user traffic patterns throughout all our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. Thenurserystore.com breaks down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser).

Thenurserystore.com sometimes tracks and catalogues the search terms that users enter in our search function, but this tracking is never associated with individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like, based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.

We may place a text file called a ‘cookie’ in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain personal information, although it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information you have specifically and knowingly provided.

The only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites.

Thenurserystore.com uses cookies to track user traffic patterns (as described above). Our advertising system delivers a one-time cookie to better track ad impressions and click rates.

You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive a warning message with each cookie. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site, however, you do need to activate cookies to participate in message boards, forums, polling and surveys.

Use of information

Thenurserystore.com uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide interactive or personalised elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users.

As stated above, we use information that users voluntarily provide to send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate in polls, surveys, message boards and forums. We send out newsletters to subscribers regularly and occasionally send out special editions when we think subscribers might be particularly interested in something we are doing.

Thenurserystore.com does not sell our newsletter mailing lists. We may use information from our mailing list, such as email addresses, for marketing purposes. See the ‘Sharing of Information’ section below for details on how this may involve trusted third party partners and targeted advertising. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time.

We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read but how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you. We track search terms entered in the search function as one of many measures of what interests our users. However, we don't track which terms a particular user enters.

Links to other websites

Where we provide links to websites of other organisations, this privacy notice does not cover how that organisation processes personal information. We encourage you to read the privacy notices on the other websites you visit.

Security

Online4Baby Limited trading as The Nursery Store operates secure data networks protected by industry-standard firewalls and password protection systems. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorised individuals have access to the information provided by our customers.

The security of your information is the highest priority for thenurserystore.com. We use Stripe and PayPal as our Payment Service Providers. Stripe and PayPal are ultra-secure third parties which use 128-bit software (SSL) and encrypt all the debit and credit card information you input before it is sent to us. Thenurserystore.com does not hold, store or even see credit card details.

The Stripe payment system uses a combination of both established and innovative techniques to ensure the security and integrity of all sensitive data. Furthermore, our public web servers are certified by Thawte, a public certificate authority, ensuring that both the shopper and retailer can have confidence that nobody can impersonate WorldPay to obtain confidential information.

In addition, to increase the security of Internet transactions, Visa and MasterCard introduced 3D-Secure. If your card issuer participates in this scheme, they may ask you to verify your online password; this is like an online version of the chip and pin. If you have not yet registered for this, then do not worry, it will be offered again on your next transaction.

The transfer of the purchase details from the retailer’s site to WorldPay is encapsulated using our own encrypted and digitally signed protocol. This uses a combination of standard methods such as PGP, RSA and MD5 to ensure that the information passed is secure and tamper-proof.

Opt-out policy

We give users options wherever necessary and practical. Such choices include opting not to register to receive our electronic newsletters and not participating in certain interactive areas, which completely alleviates the need to gather any personally identifiable information from our users.

Your rights

You have several rights under the data privacy legislation. This includes, under certain circumstances, the right to:

be informed about how your personal information is being used by companies
access the personal information we hold about you
request the correction of inaccurate personal information we hold about you
request that we purge your data, stop processing it or collecting it in some circumstances
stop direct marketing messages
request that we transfer elements of your data either to you or another service provider

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please email us at support@thenurserystore.com We will try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally, it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made several requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated. Please note we may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to exercise any of the above rights. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

If we are unable to resolve your complaint, you may make a complaint to the Information Commissioner’s Office. Please visit ico.org.uk for more information.
