Your privacy is important to The Ridings. This statement discloses the information practices, including what type of information is gathered and tracked, how the information is used, and with whom the information is shared.
Personal information
In general, you can visit our website on the Internet without telling us who you are and without giving any personal information about yourself. There are times, however, when we or our partners may need information from you.
You may choose to give us personal information in a variety of situations. For example, you may want to give us information, such as your name and address or e-mail id, to correspond with you, to process an order, or to provide you with a subscription. You may give us your credit card details to buy something from us. We intend to let you know how we will use such information before we collect it from you; if you tell us that you do not want us to use this information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your requests, we will respect your wishes. If you give us personal information about somebody else, such as a spouse or work colleague, we will assume that you have their permission to do so.
Using and Sharing Personal Information
The following paragraphs describe in more detail how we may use your personal information and with whom we may share it.
Fulfilling Your Transaction Request
If you request something from the website, for example, a product or service, a callback, we will use the information you provide to fulfill your request. To help us do this, we may share information, with others, for instance, shipping companies, postal or government authorities (for example, Customs authorities) involved in fulfillment.

This is to help us maintain the accuracy of the information we collect and to help us provide a better service.
Cookies and Other Technologies
We sometimes collect non-identifiable information from visits to our websites to help us provide better customer service.

This information is sometimes known as “clickstream data.” We may use this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better customer service.
Also, when we collect personal data from you in a transaction, we may extract some information about that transaction in an non-identifiable format and combine it with other non-identifiable information such as clickstream data. This information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and patterns. This information is not reviewed at an individual level.
