At PuppyJoyz, we cherish the trust our devoted dog parents place in us when shopping for their beloved pups. Just as we carefully select premium dog beds, nutrition, and toys, we’re equally committed to protecting your personal information with the highest standards of security. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you visit puppyjoyz.com.

1. Information We Collect

To provide our tail-wagging shopping experience, we collect:

  • Personal Details: Name, email address, shipping/billing address when you make purchases or create an account
  • Payment Information: Encrypted card details or PayPal email for transaction processing (we never store full card numbers)
  • Order History: Products purchased, sizes (for breed-specific items), and preferences to improve future recommendations
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device information for security and site optimization
  • Communication Records: Emails or messages sent to our customer care team

2. How We Use Your Information

Your data helps us create a paws-itively wonderful experience:

  • Process orders for those must-have dog beds and premium nutrition
  • Provide order tracking, especially important for our global customers
  • Improve our product selection (like noticing which harness styles are most popular)
  • Send service-related communications (order confirmations, delivery updates)
  • Prevent fraud and enhance website security (because we guard your data like we’d guard our pups’ favorite treats!)
  • With consent, send occasional newsletters about new toys or special offers

3. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We’re selective about who we share with – just like choosing the best playmates for your pup:

  • Payment Processors: Secure partners like PayPal and PCI-DSS compliant gateways to complete transactions
  • Shipping Providers: Only necessary delivery information to get those leads and harnesses to you
  • Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our business and customers
  • Service Providers: Trusted partners who help with website operations (all under strict confidentiality agreements)

We never sell your data to third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Data Storage & Security

Your information is protected with the same care we’d give to our own dogs’ security:

  • All data is stored on secure servers with 256-bit SSL encryption
  • Payment details are processed through PCI-DSS compliant systems
  • Regular security audits to maintain protection standards
  • Data is retained only as long as necessary for business or legal requirements

5. Your Rights

As a valued PuppyJoyz customer, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate information (like updating your address for that new dog bed delivery)
  • Request deletion of your data, subject to legal requirements
  • Opt-out of marketing communications (though we’ll still send essential service messages)
  • Withdraw consent for data processing where applicable
  • Lodge complaints with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)

6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies – not the treat kind, but small text files that help:

  • Remember items in your cart (like those Batman-themed beds and grain-free treats)
  • Understand how customers navigate our site to improve the shopping experience
  • Provide relevant product recommendations based on browsing history
  • Measure the effectiveness of our marketing (so we can bring you more of what you love)

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.

7. International Data Transfers

As we serve customers globally (excluding some Asian and remote regions), data may be transferred internationally. All transfers comply with UK GDPR requirements and appropriate safeguards.

8. Policy Updates

We may update this policy as our business grows (just like your pup!). Significant changes will be communicated through our website or email.
