Why does Thompsons Packaging Ltd collect this information?
Contact details are collected when you make a payment to detect fraudulent card use.
We will use your contact details in cases where we need to contact you in connection with your account, for instance, if you have a payment to make, if we identify an issue with your account that we need to speak to you about, or if there are any changes to your account that we need to tell you about. We also use them to establish account ownership and prevent fraudulent access to your account.
As an established customer, we will also use your email address to keep you up to date with our products and services. You can opt-out of this from your account control panel on our eCommerce platform or via the email [email protected] if you choose.
Who does Thompsons Packaging Ltd share my information with?
When making a payment, we will share your card and contact information with our payment provider. In turn, they will share information with your card provider (eg. your bank). We do not keep a record of your card data to ensure we are PCI compliant.
If you buy a product or service from Thompsons Packaging Ltd that is provided directly from a third-party partner under white-label service, we will pass on your details to fulfil the contract. This data is confidential and will not be used beyond the scope of fulfilling the transaction by the partner.
