For our own legitimate interests
We may require your data to pursue our legitimate interests as part of running our business (and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests). For example, we will use your purchase history to send you or make available offers. We also combine our customers’ shopping history to identify trends and ensure we can satisfy demands, or develop new products/services.

To comply with a legal obligation
For example, we can pass on details (to law enforcement) of people involved in fraud or other criminal activity affecting DLX.
-
Based on your consent
For example, when you request us to pass on your personal data to other people or organisations such as a company handling an order/service on your behalf; or to send you marketing communications where we’ve asked for your consent to do so.
How we use your personal data and why:
- To respond to queries and refund requests. We do this on the basis of our contractual obligations to you, our legal obligations and our legitimate interests.
