External parties with data access
Freight drivers receive your delivery address and contact number. Payment processors receive transaction data required to clear funds. Server hosts and metric services handle data under binding data agreements. We do not sell customer information.
IronForge Gear Ltd does not sell personal consumer data. Data protection standards follow the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR, as consumer transactions are centered exclusively within the United Kingdom.
Data retention schedules
We preserve sales records for the duration mandated by financial statutes, then purge them. Account records stay on file until you request closure. Metric logs are retained for 14 months.
Your rights
Pursuant to the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018, UK residents possess enforceable rights to request access to their personal data, correct inaccurate details, request data erasure, restrict processing activities, transfer records via data portability, and lodge complaints with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
Security
IronForge Gear Ltd does not store, capture, or handle payment card information because transactions are conducted exclusively via complimentary Cash on Delivery or verified Direct Bank Transfer.
