We only share your information where needed for the purposes in Section 3, with:

7. International transfers
Some of our service providers, including Shopify and some payment, email and advertising providers, may store or process your information outside the UK, for example in Canada, the European Economic Area or the United States. Where this happens, we make sure appropriate protections are in place, such as transfers to countries the UK considers to have adequate data protection, or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
If we ship your order outside the UK, your delivery details will be shared with carriers and customs authorities in the destination country.
8. Cookies
Cookies are small files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use:
Essential cookies, which are needed for the Website to work, for example to keep items in your basket, process checkout, keep the Website secure and remember your currency. These don't need your consent.
Analytics cookies, which help us understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it. We may use Google Analytics and Shopify analytics.
Advertising cookies and pixels, which help us measure our ads and show you relevant ads on other sites and social media. We may use the Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel and Google Ads tags.
We only use analytics and advertising cookies if you agree to them through our cookie banner. You can change your choice at any time through our cookie banner or your browser settings. For more information about the cookies used by Shopify, see Shopify's cookie policy.
9. How long we keep your information
Orders and subscriptions: we keep order, payment and invoice records for 6 years after the end of the financial year they relate to, as required for tax and accounting.
Sample requests that aren't approved: up to 12 months, to prevent repeat misuse of the offer.
Enquiries and correspondence: up to 2 years after our last contact, unless they relate to an order or an ongoing relationship.
Wholesale and office customers: for as long as we work together and up to 6 years afterwards.
Marketing list: until you unsubscribe. We then keep your email address on a suppression list so we don't contact you again.
Analytics data: for the period set in the relevant tool, typically up to 14 months.
After these periods we securely delete or anonymise your information.
10. Keeping your information secure
We use reputable service providers and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including secure, encrypted checkout. No system is completely secure, so please contact us immediately if you think your information has been put at risk.

Access the personal information we hold about you.
Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
Delete your information, in some circumstances.
Restrict how we use your information, in some circumstances.
Object to us using your information based on legitimate interests, and to direct marketing at any time.
Data portability: receive your information in a commonly used format, or ask us to send it to someone else, in some circumstances.
Withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on consent. This doesn't affect anything we did before you withdrew it.
To use any of these rights, email support@zesto.coffee. We may need to confirm your identity first. We will normally respond within one month and won't charge a fee in most cases.
Some rights are limited. For example, we must keep order records for tax purposes even if you ask us to delete them.
