Data Protection
Under the recent change in how we use and keep your data, may we assure you that none of your details are kept on line anywhere.
The only information we hold about you is whatever you gave us when you placed your order.
This information is stored in a lockable filing cabinet in the office, only accessible to us.
Your account number as shown on all correspondence identifies you in the records.
We here at Derbyshire Arms Ltd take your privacy very seriously. We do not have an online shop, to purchase our products you must in the first instance email us and of course you may also telephone us within our office hours.
Our preferred method of payment is via bacs, so we have no need to know your payment details, we do though have the facility to take card payments, as soon as a transaction is completed, your details are burnt and you have the option to have your receipt posted to you along with your confirmation, or for it to be locked in the filing cabinet until such time as you collect your order or it is sent via post (non firearm orders).
We have never stored any of your personal or sensitive details online, anything we know about you pertains only to what you order and your contact details, all of which are kept in a lockable old fashioned wooden filing cabinet. You are identified to us by your account number and entered into our ledger for cross referencing in the filing cabinet. We are the only people that have access to the filing cabinet which is kept locked at all times.
After an order has been completed you have the choice to request we destroy your information and remove your details from the filing cabinet. However your account number will still remain open/live to you should you wish to make further purchases.
In the instance of your order containing a 'live' firearm, we are bound by UK gun law to record certain details in our ledger, which is also kept under lock and key, these may not be destroyed.
