The following Privacy Policy, updated to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), has been been created to provide you with clear guidance about how we collect, store and use data and information. Our approach to data and information is based on the following three principles:
WE WILL NEVER SELL, ASIGN OR PASS ON YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO ANY THIRD PARTY WITHOUT YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND CONSENT, SUBJECT TO ANYTHING THE LAW REQUIRES US TO DO.
Man John Limited, and any trading names thereof, is the sole Data Controller for the purposes of collecting and processing data and can be contacted using the contact details available on our website.
Please read this policy before using our website and before submitting any personal data to us. This privacy Policy should be read in conjunction with out Terms and Conditions which can be found here.
All personally identifiable data records which are collected when you complete a transaction through our website or sign up to our mailing lists are stored electronically and are protected by encrypted software and passwords. On occasions, it is necessary to retain such records in paper copy on a temporary basis with disposal of all records undertaken through confidential document disposal services. We take the safe storage of all data and the security of all our communications very seriously.
However, the internet is an insecure medium and as such there are risks which while we do our best to minimise and mitigate, we cannot eliminate completely. All transactions carried out through our website are authorised by your card issuing bank. We are rigorous in protecting cardholders and we may contact you for additional security purposes should it be deemed necessary.
WE DO NOT AND WILL NEVER sell your data to third parties including your name, address, email address or telephone number or any payment information. However, your information will on occasion be shared with the following companies and organisations to ensure we are able to fulfil your order and deliver the level of customer service and experience you expect:
We will disclose personally identifiable information without your permission when required to by law or in good faith in the belief that to do so is necessary to investigate or protect against suspected criminal activities to our customers, visitors, associates, property (including this website) and to others.
If you have consented to us using your email address and other personal information for marketing purposes, we will occasionally send you marketing emails to keep you informed of what is happening at Baccus along with exclusive offers and events. We use the Mailchimp email marketing platform to send our emails and your name, email and date of birth (if you have provided it) is stored on our Mailchimp email lists in order to allow us to send you emails. Mailchimp’s lists also detail the total value of any purchases you have made through our website, assuming that these purchases were made when logged in as a user on the website.
If you no longer wish to receive marketing communications from us you can:
Our website is designed for the use of persons over the age of 18.

If any parent/guardian has any concerns they should be forwarded in writing to [email protected]
We use closed circuit television cameras in our store, both in public and staff-only areas, for the purposes of security and theft-prevention. The use of cameras in store is indicated through high viability signage. By entering the store you are consenting to the capture, recording and storage of CCTV footage and images. All captured footage and images hare stored on a central, secure recording system which is not accessible to anyone other than appointed members of staff who have permission to access this CCTV system. All records are held for a period of 30 days before being automatically deleted, unless ongoing official investigations by the Police, any other law-enforcement body or statutory authority requires us to retain certain records for longer.
We do not and will never disclose, pass on or allow viewing of any images or footage by third parties without your express permission. The exception to this will be where we are required to provide access by law or where we act in good faith in the belief that to do so is necessary to investigate or protect against suspected criminal activities to our customers, visitors, associates, property (including this website) and to others.
Please see Section 3 for details on how to request footage/images we hold.
