We may also retain information about your purchase history, including items that you have saved or are interested in purchasing.

Your provision of personal data may be required in order for us to provide certain products and services. In some instances, if you choose not to provide your personal data, we may not be able to process your request for certain products and services.

Personal Data Processing

We may process personal data to:

  • We have a legal obligation to process your personal data, such as to comply with applicable law and other government regulations or to comply with a court order or binding law enforcement request.

  • To protect your vital interests, or those of others.

Disclosure of Personal Data

We may disclose your personal data to affiliates, business partners, vendors (e.g., payment processors, shipping companies, sweepstakes promoters, and website developers), and other parties. 

In the event of a business transaction, such as if we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets (e.g., further to a merger, reorganisation, liquidation, or any other business transaction, including negotiations of such transactions), we reserve the right to disclose information we obtain through the Site.

In addition, we may disclose your personal data if we are required to do so by law or we believe that such action is necessary to:

  • Comply with legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena, or court order;
  • Protect the company’s rights or property;
  • Investigate potential fraud or other security risks;
  • Protect against misuse or unauthorised use of the Site; and/or
  • Respond to emergencies, such as when we believe someone's physical safety is at risk.

Personal Data Transfers

Certain personal data may be transferred to Orvis in the United States for processing. Please be aware that the data protection laws and regulations that apply to your personal data in other countries may differ from the laws in United Kingdom. Orvis will use appropriate legal mechanisms and other safeguards to protect your personal data. For example, Orvis may ask for consent to transfer personal data to the United States, or carry out such transfers in accordance with approved international data transfer agreements.

For further information about how your personal data may be transferred out of United Kingdom, please contact us at customerservice@orvis.co.uk.

Data Retention

We will store your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the performance of our obligations or to achieve the purposes for which the information was collected, or as may be permitted under applicable law. To determine the appropriate retention period, we will consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data; the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of the data; the purposes for which we process the data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means; and the applicable legal requirements. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, at the end of the retention period we will securely delete personal data from our systems and records or take appropriate steps to properly anonymise it.
