Legal basis we rely on to collect information

The law on data protection sets out a number of different reasons for which a company may collect and process your personal data, including:

  1. To fulfil a service: We use your information to execute contracts or services that you have entered into. This includes communications relating to your order, deliveries and payments via phone, email and SMS (for example to let you know if a delivery is delayed or payment has failed). 
  2. When you consent: We may use your personal information and order history to tell you about relevant products, events, competitions and news. For example, when you sign up to a newsletter or tell us you want to hear from us by completing your preferences. You can ask us to stop sending you marketing messages by contacting us at any time. If you change your mind you can update your choices at any time by logging into your account or contacting us.
  3. If we have legitimate interest: The GDPR defines legitimate interest as a reasonable business or commercial interest for processing your personal information. For example, sending a direct mail when a product you previously ordered is back in season, improving the service we provide or to follow our ethical and environmental ethos.

Who we share your information with

Sometimes we may share your data with trusted third parties for the legal bases defined above (service, legitimate interest and consent). 

An additional basis of ‘legal compliance’ applies here. We have a duty to pass on information to law enforcement agencies, if we become aware of people involved in fraud, non-payment or other criminal activity.

We may also be legally bound to share your data in the future if MOR Bakery is subject to sale or asset transfer.

Who we share your data with, how we protect it and your rights.

  1. Our business partners in order to fulfil our contract with you. Data is accessed from centrally maintained systems. No personal information is sent across the open internet.
  2. We use an external email platform provided by Gmail to fulfil our service and marketing communication needs. Gmail adheres to the GDPR when processing data for customers operating within the EU.
    Use of a third party email provider is necessary and legitimate for us to execute the service you sign up for with MOR Bakery. Gmail provide the following statement about how your data is protected:
    Gmail applies effective security safeguards to protect your Personal Information and therefore complies with and is partly certified against ISO 27001. ISO 27001 is the international standard for information security management and defines the requirements for the introduction, operation, monitoring, and continual improvement of an effective information security management system (ISMS). It systematically ensures that an organization implements and maintains commercially reasonable and industry standard technical and organizational safeguards to preserve the security of (Personal) Information.
  3. Online advertisers and platforms such as (Google, Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook) to show you relevant information about our products. The processing is completed using pseudonymised (subjected to a technical process which replaces your data with codes, so it is unidentifiable to anyone without additional information) email addresses to protect your privacy. This transfer is a bulk process so neither MOR Bakery, or the third party, has sight of any individual’s data.
    As a customer you can consent or opt out from online marketing by updating your communication preferences in your account (this may take up to 30 days to process). Read more about how ads are displayed on each platform and how to control your data:
  4. Online advertisers and platforms to exclude current customers from seeing advertising (to save money). The processing is completed using pseudonymised (subjected to a technical process which replaces your data with codes, so it is unidentifiable to anyone without additional.
    As an ethical business that uses profits to invest back into protecting the environment, it is our legitimate interest to take all reasonable steps to avoid unnecessary cost.

We only provide third parties with the information they need to perform the exact services we specify in our contract with them and we never sell your data to third parties. We work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected at all times. If at any time we stop using third party services, any information held by them will either be deleted or rendered anonymous. 

Where we keep your information

The data that we collect from you is stored within the European Economic Area ("EEA"). We take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy. Where we share your data with third parties, that information may be held outside of the EU but remains under the jurisdiction and strict principles of the GDPR.

All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers, except payment card information. To maintain the highest level of security, we never store or have visibility of your card details. We use a method called client-side encryption to take your card details. This means that your card details are encrypted on your device before they are sent to MOR Bakery. This encrypted format is sent to our payment provider (PayPal and Stripe) ensuring that we are never able to see your card details.

Our payment provider gives us a ‘token’ which can only be used to take payment from your card to a MOR Bakery bank account. If this token were stolen, it would be of no value to anyone else; it can only be used by MOR Bakery to take a payment from your card.

All transactions and communication between your browser and our website are encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security protocol). Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. Do not share your password with anyone and change it regularly. We recommend changing your password at least every three months.

From time to time, our website may contain links to third party websites. If you follow a link to any of these websites, please note that they will have their own privacy policies and that we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please check these policies before you submit any personal data to these websites.

How long we keep your data for

We will hold your personal information on our system for as long as is necessary for the processing of our contractual obligations with you or when you give consent for us to keep your account open.

We keep your account open for a period of 37 months after your last order or last delivery. During this time, we will continue communicating with you as outlined by this policy unless you actively close your account or update your preferences.

At 36 months after your last order, we will email you to check if you’d like to keep your account open and continue hearing from us. If you do not respond, we will remove your details from our active database and you will no longer receive any communication from us. If your account is closed either as part of our retention or as a request under Article 17 of the General Data Protection Regulation your personal information will be held securely on a deactivated basis for the remainder of our legal obligations to meet government financial and audit regulations for a maximum of 7 years unless there is an extended legal basis to retain for longer. Should you wish to become a MOR Bakery customer in the future, you will be prompted to set up a new account.
