Privacy Policy

Are you lost? Why on earth are you wasting time here? You won't get these minutes back you know!

Well, if you're hanging around, I'll give you the spiel.

I need to comply with the new GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). This new E.U. regulation ensures that I don't share your details with the highest bidder. I'm being sarcastic of course, I do take the protection of your data very seriously, and here are the 500 or so words of legal mumbo jumbo that you don't REALLY care about.....ever.....but that legally I'm obliged to supply.

This privacy policy sets out how Hairwraps UK uses and protects any information that you give Hairwraps UK when you use this website. I am a sole trader with two small children, so I have neither the time or inclination to do unspeakably nefarious things with your data. 

From time to time (if I haven't got anything to better to do) I reserve the right to amend this document.

For the purpose of this document 'I', 'We' or 'us' refers to Hairwraps U.K.

Please note that Hairwraps U.K. is not a part or wholly owned subsidiary of Super Global Evil Corp.

At Hairwraps UK, we want to be able to offer our customers the best possible experience. We may use your data to offer you promotions or products that are likely to interest you. These offers would only be sent you with your prior consent.

We do follow you a little bit. We have Google analytics set up to spy on you, but it's all anonomised which means I don't have a clue who is who. But this data is used to see what customers are looking at and allows me to make more content that you will like.
