Third-Party Personal Data You Add

Memory Card allows users to store details relating to other people, such as recipients, contacts and household members. By entering this information into the platform, you confirm that you have the authority or permission to provide that personal data for the purpose of arranging greeting card scheduling, delivery or related notifications.

Where you have chosen to receive marketing communications, we may send you updates about Memory Card, offers, news and product information.

You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by updating the appropriate preference within your user account or by clicking the unsubscribe link included in our marketing emails.

Reviews and Display of Names

If you leave a review on a Memory Card product, we may display that review publicly on our website.

To help maintain trust and authenticity, reviews may be displayed together with your first name and the initial of your surname, for example Sarah J.

If you would prefer your review to be anonymised or removed, you may contact us at support@memory-card.co.uk.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, maintain account sessions, analyse usage and improve performance.

Some cookies are essential for the operation of the service. Others help us understand how visitors use the site or support marketing activity where permitted.

For more information, please see our Cookie Policy.

Fraud Prevention and Security

We may use information relating to transactions, devices and account behaviour to help detect suspicious activity, prevent fraud and protect the Memory Card platform, our users and our service providers.

How We Share Your Data

We may share personal data with trusted third parties where necessary to provide our services, including:

  • Payment processors.
  • Delivery and fulfilment providers.
  • Technology providers, hosting providers and security partners.
  • Analytics and communication providers.
  • Professional advisers or authorities where required by law.

We do not sell your personal data.

International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place so that your data remains protected in accordance with applicable data protection law.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, including providing the service, meeting legal obligations, resolving disputes and protecting our business.

Certain records may need to be retained for accounting, fraud prevention, audit, legal or operational purposes.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. This includes the use of encryption and other safeguards where appropriate.

However, no internet-based service can be completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Deletion, Anonymisation and Inactive Records

You may request deletion of your personal data in accordance with applicable law. Where reasonably possible, we will delete or anonymise personal data in response to valid requests.

In some circumstances, complete deletion may not be technically possible without affecting database integrity, fraud prevention controls, security measures or legal record-keeping obligations. In those cases, relevant records may instead be securely retained in an inactive or restricted state and will no longer be actively used except where necessary for legitimate operational or legal purposes.

Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data.
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Request deletion of your personal data.
  • Object to or restrict certain processing.
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
  • Request portability of your data where applicable.
  • Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office or another relevant supervisory authority.

To exercise your rights, contact us at support@memory-card.co.uk.

Children's Privacy

Memory Card is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children in a manner that would require parental consent under applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us inappropriately, please contact us.
