This is the privacy notice for MatsDirect. It explains how we use any personal information we collect about you when you use this website. Please read it carefully.

What information do we collect about you?

We may collect information when you visit the website or purchase any products from the website but only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. This may include details such as your name, address, email address, telephone number, billing details and credit card information. There is no requirement for you to provide us with such information in order to use the website. However, if you decide to withhold certain information requested by us, you may not be able to visit all sections of the website or make purchases. Website usage information is collected using cookies.

How will we use this information about you?

We use information gathered on the website to enable us to provide you with access to all parts of the website and to process any orders you may make. If you provide information to this website, we will not sell, share or rent your personal information to third parties (save as expressly stated below), but we may use it for our own purposes in order to:

  • administer and run the website;
  • fulfil orders for any goods or services, which we have agreed to supply;
  • notify you of other MatsDirect products and services.

We will not disclose any information we gather from you on the website. Any information provided will be used only in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Notice.

Third party contractors may sometimes have limited access to information collected on the website in the course of providing products or services to us, for example, hosting and maintenance of the website, or credit card processors. This is strictly limited to information which is reasonably required by them to perform their duties. These third parties are at all times required to comply with the terms of this Privacy Notice and as such are prevented from using or disclosing any information for any purposes other than providing services to us.

We will use your information for the purposes described above, or as indicated to you when we request such information. You must “opt-in” and give us specific consent to use the information for any other purpose (for example, to allow us to send our marketing materials or electronic alerts).

In the event of a sale, merger or transfer or sale of us we reserve the right to transfer information to a third party who will be obliged to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Notice.
