1. Who we are
HRS Food ("we", "us", "our") operates the online store at hrsfood.com. We are the data controller responsible for your personal data.
Registered business: HRS Newsagents LTD (trading as HRS Food), 786 Whalley New Road. Contact: hello@hrsfood.com.

Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:
- Information you give us — your name, email address, delivery and billing address, phone number, order details, and any gift messages or recipient details you enter.
- Payment information — processed securely by Shopify and its payment providers. We do not see or store your full card details.
- Information collected automatically — cookies and similar technologies, your device and browser type, and how you use the site (see our Cookie Policy).
- Information from third parties — such as Shopify, payment providers and delivery couriers, to fulfil and update your order.
3. How we use your data and our lawful bases
We use your data to:
- Process and deliver your orders and provide customer support — to perform our contract with you.
- Send order and delivery updates — to perform our contract with you.
- Send marketing emails where you have opted in — with your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
- Improve and secure the site and prevent fraud — for our legitimate interests.
- Meet legal and tax obligations — to comply with the law.
4. Who we share your data with
We share data only with providers who help us run the store, and we never sell your personal data. These include:

- Delivery couriers — to ship your order.
- Email and analytics providers — to send updates you have opted into and understand site usage.

5. International transfers
Some of our providers may process data outside the UK. Where they do, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as UK adequacy regulations or standard contractual clauses to keep your data protected.
6. How long we keep your data
We keep your data only as long as necessary for the purposes above. Order and transaction records are typically kept for up to 6 years to meet tax and accounting requirements. Marketing data is kept until you unsubscribe.
