1. Where we’re obliged to do so (for example a legal request)

2. When we need to work with a third party or core service provider, for example, a delivery service or IT service provider.

COOKIES

Cookies are small text files used to transfer information. Site functionality cookies allow you to navigate the site and use our features. When you return to the site we’ll be able to remember the products you’ve compared or added to your basket.

Cookies also enable us to show adverts relevant to you when you’re browsing online, for example, deals or products you’ve looked at.

Analytics cookies help us to learn where we’re going wrong, and which elements of the site you find easier to use. We’ll track the volume of people on our site, where they click, and where they exit the site.

 

CREATING AN ACCOUNT

Creating an account with World of Camping gives you the ability to check out more quickly by allowing us to remember your delivery address and payment information, so you don’t have to re-enter those details every time. You can save your address and payment options, along with your contact telephone numbers.

We do our part in protecting your account by strongly hashing your password using modern cyphers and cryptographic patterns. Our staff have no way of accessing your password.

It’s important that you also take responsibility for protecting your account information. Make sure your password is suitably complex, don’t share it with others, and try not to use the same one for lots of online accounts. Never send your password by email – we’ll never ask you to do so. We won’t ask you for your password information over the phone, but we can advise you on how to reset it.

It’s a good idea to reset online passwords occasionally. If you think anyone has accessed your account information without your approval, contact us to let us know.
