Privacy Policy
Fireplaceproducts is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This privacy policy is based on the guidelines required by the UK Data Protection Acts of 1984 and 1998.
Fireplaceproducts understands that many customers value their personal privacy and wish to ensure that any company who provides a service to them will also value their privacy. We therefore guarantee that we will not sell or pass your data to a third party outside the Fireplaceproducts Group, in the normal course of business, unless that third party requires the data to provide you with your order delivery or in the course of communicating with you as a customer. As part of our customer charter we will process your personal data fairly and lawfully.

How we protect your data
The data that you have provided will remain in databases that are established in a network that is firewall protected. Firewalls exist to stop the transfer of unauthorised information to or from the network. Physical access to our servers is restricted through the use of door code security systems. Higher level user login ID and password controls are also in place to restrict access. Only a limited number of IT personnel are authorised by the IT director to access the database. We use industry standard security technology and server certification.
As a routine we carry out validation checks to help prevent fraud. No protection system is foolproof and the company cannot guarantee the total security of data or accept any liability unless a breach of security was due to our proven wilful default or negligence.
