We are very pleased about your interest in Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare, our website and offer. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare.

The use of the Internet pages of Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare is possible without any indication of personal data. However, processing of personal data could become necessary if you want to use our services or when you contact us. If processing of personal data is necessary and if there is no legal basis for such processing, we will generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

Therefore, it goes without saying that we comply with Ireland`s statutory data protection regulations the Data Protection Act (PDA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and treat personal data as strictly confidential. Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare of Fuchsia Cottage, Moynalty, Kells,

You can contact us using lughnasabotanicals@gmail.com or our Live Chat or Contact Form.

As the Data Controller, Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can always be subject to security vulnerabilities, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means.

Data processing

We process your personal data on our website in different ways:

Cookies

Cookies are text files which are stored on a computer system via an internet browser. Numerous Internet pages and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string of characters by which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the visited Internet pages and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognised and identified via the unique cookie ID. For further details please visit our Cookie Policy.

Log files

The website of Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare collects a series of general data and information each time a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The following data may be collected: (1) the browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites which are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of an access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed (1) to deliver the contents of our website correctly, (2) to optimise the contents of our website and the advertising for these, (3) to ensure the long-term operability of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber-attack. Therefore, Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare analyses anonymously collected data and information on one hand, and on the other hand, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise so that we can ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

Enquiry by e-mail

If you contact us by e-mail your enquiry including all personal data resulting from it (name, enquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent. The processing of this data is based on the performance of a contract if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent and/or on our legitimate interests, as we have a legitimate interest in the effective processing of enquiries addressed to us. The data you send to us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after we have completed processing your request).

Comment function on our blog

For comments in our blog, we collect in addition to your comment, details of when the comment was created and, if you do not post anonymously, the username you have chosen will be stored. You have choices about the information on your comment. You don’t have to provide additional information on your comment; however, comment information helps you to get more from our Services. It’s your choice whether to include sensitive information in your comment and to make that sensitive information public. Please do not post or add personal data in your comment that you would not want to be available.

The comments and the associated data (e.g., IP address) are stored and remain on our website until the commented content has been completely deleted or the comments have to be deleted for legal reasons (e.g., offensive comments).

The storage of comments is based on your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal communication by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Contact form

If you contact us and send us general enquiries the contact details you provide, will be stored and used by us to fulfil the purpose associated with the transmission, e.g., to process your enquiry or in the event of follow-up questions.

The basis for this storage and use of your personal data is your consent, which you give us by sending the contact form. Insofar as you provide us with your personal data for the purpose of responding to your questions or preparing a quotation, the entry of personal data is required. Without this information, we cannot process your request.

You have the right to revoke your consent to the data processing described above at any time with effect for the future. In this case, we will no longer process your data. Your personal data will be deleted even without your revocation in any case if we have processed your request or if the storage is inadmissible for other legal reasons.

Live Chat

On this website, anonymised data is collected and stored using technologies provided by Ascend by Wix, for the purpose of web analytics and to operate the live chat system used to respond to live support requests. Usage profiles can be created from this anonymised data under a pseudonym. Insofar as the information collected in this way has a personal reference, the processing is carried out in accordance with our legitimate interest in effective customer service and the statistical analysis of user behaviour for optimisation purposes. The legal basis for this data processing is your consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

Creation of a customer account, processing of orders, use of customer data

If you wish to use our access-protected area, prior registration is necessary. We only collect the data required for registration. This is regularly your master data (e-mail address). In the context of order processing, we process the order data required for this purpose.

Guest orders

If you do not wish to create a permanent customer account, you can also order as a guest. We process the data you provide in a customer account created by us in our merchandise management system. Data processing in the case of an order for goods is carried out in the same way.

Contract initiation and fulfilment

In order to accept and process your order, we collect the following data from you during the ordering process:

  • First name, surname and title
  • E-mail address
  • Billing address
  • Telephone number, if applicable
  • Payment details
  • Purchased products and returns, if any
  • Date and time of order

The processing of data in the course of the ordering process is carried out in order to fulfil the contract with you in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR. If we collect further data from you when creating the customer account, this is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR to maintain a customer relationship with you. If we collect additional data, this is marked as voluntary and is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Service providers for order processing

In connection with the processing of your order, we use various service providers or partner companies to assist us in processing orders, providing customers with information and providing services. These companies are our order processors according to Art. 28 GDPR and may only use your data to fulfil their tasks on our behalf. Lughnasa Botanicals Natural Skincare is responsible for ensuring that these service providers comply with data protection regulations and has concluded corresponding order processing agreements with the service providers.

Direct marketing

If we receive your e-mail address in connection with the sale of a product or service, we will use the address for direct marketing of our own similar goods or services, unless you have objected to the processing. When collecting the address and for each use, we clearly indicate that you can object to the use at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic rates.

The data is used on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR and in the interest of promoting the sale of our goods or services. You have an uncomplicated option to object, e.g., via the unsubscribe link in every e-mail.

Payment Service Provider

PayPal

If you choose the payment method Paypal, you will be redirected to Paypal at the end of the order process. Payment processing takes place at PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg. The data processing thus serves the fulfilment of the contract according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR. For further information on data protection law, please refer to PayPal’s Privacy Policy.

Wix Payments

If you choose to use the Wix Payments payment method, payment will be processed through the payment system of Wix HQ, 6350671, Nemal Tel Aviv St 40, Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel (“Wix”). Wix Payments allows payment via all major credit card formats and, depending on the region, additional payment methods. The individual payment methods offered through Wix Payments will be disclosed to you on our website.

When payments are made via Wix Payments, your payment data (e.g., payment amount, information on the payment method used, details of the payee) as well as your confirmation that the payment data is correct will be collected and processed by Wix for the purpose of making the payment in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. b of the GDPR and transmitted to the credit institution commissioned with the payment. This processing only takes place insofar as it is actually necessary for the execution of the payment. Wix then authenticates the payment via the authentication procedure stored for you at your credit institution.

In the context of the aforementioned services, data may also be transmitted to Wix Inc., 500 Terry A. Francois Boulevard, San Francisco, California 94158, USA, by way of further processing on your behalf.

Sharing your personal data

In the course of the necessary business processes, we are supported by external service providers in order to fulfil their tasks. To protect the data to be processed, the necessary data protection contracts have been concluded with all service providers. These are, in particular, service providers, as well as financial and consulting companies, which provide support in checking relevant data. In addition, we make use of specialised IT experts from suppliers and partner companies who have the relevant product know-how to support us in individual areas. We pass on information on payment processing, to PayPal.

Please note: If your data is transferred from Ireland to another country, the laws protecting your data there may differ from those in Ireland (and may only provide a lower level of protection).
