We collect information about you when you register with us, request a quote or place an order for products or services.

How will we use the information about you?

We collect information about you to process your order, manage your account, respond to any contact you make with us, investigate feedback and survey submissions and, if you agree, to email you about other products and services we think may be of interest to you.

We use your information collected from the website to personalise your repeat visits to our website.

As a member of the Wisdom review panel, the information we collect from you will be to better target you with trialling the products suited to your likes and interests.   Your information will also be used to contact you (via email, telephone or post), and to send you the products for trialling, should you be chosen and agree to the trial.

Wisdom Toothbrushes Ltd. will not share your information for marketing purposes with any other companies.

We use some third-party services in order to send you marketing emails, take payment and dispatch your order. Third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

In processing your order, we may send your details to, and also use information from credit reference agencies and fraud prevention agencies.

Marketing

We would like to send you information about products and services which may be of interest to you. If you have consented to receive marketing, you may opt out at a later date.

As an existing or potential business account of Wisdom Toothbrushes Ltd, we believe you to have a legitimate interest in receiving relevant information about the products and services we provide. You have a right to opt-out at any time.

You have a right at any time to stop us from contacting you for marketing purposes.

As a member of the Wisdom review panel you have consented to be contacted and included in future product trials. This is a special form of direct marketing, which intensifies loyalty by providing you with exclusive information and trial on products which may or may not be readily available.

Web shop

We use a third party service called Shopify to run our web shop cart and checkout. Payment will be processed by Shopify Inc, and all order details will be encrypted and securely stored in the cloud. Shopify International Ltd. adheres to the standards set by PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). Shopify will only transfer information they collect to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Oracle’s behalf.

Please see Shopify’s Data Processing Addendum here and their privacy policy here.

How long we store your data for

We will automatically delete your personal data at the latest after 24 months of inactivity.

When you contact us to offer feedback or take part in a survey we will securely store your data for 4 years from the last time you contacted us. This will enable us to investigate, and keep track of feedback given.

When taking part in competitions, unless you opt-in to marketing, we will store your data for no longer than 6 months.
