We
are constantly vigilant for credit card or other fraud.
We report all charge backs to a credit reference agency.
If you have any reason to seek the return of money paid, please
contact us rather than your credit card issuer. Information
may be unlawfully available to hackers and snoopers. We take no responsibility
for this. The risk is no different from a similar risk in a bricks and
mortar establishment. Except as set out below, we do not share, or sell,
or disclose to a third party, any personally identifiable information
collected at this site. If this policy should change in the future (most
unlikely), then we shall provide notification in advance, and the opportunity
for all users to indicate whether or not they would prefer that we do
not provide the information to third parties as proposed. We
do not market to children. Here
